Submitted by Lisa Sett of California

Christmas Snow Globes

"Waterless Snow Globes"

Items needed:

1 plastic wine glass (the kind that have a base that can be removed, found at a dollar store)

1 or more miniature toys or trees (I made the snowman out of clay)

1 glittery pipe cleaner

1 Tbsp. or more of clear or white glitter (this is your snow)
white glue

Scrap of white cardboard cut to 1/2'' larger than rim of glass

Scrap of ribbon to tie bow on top of snow globe

Instructions:

Glue small toy to center of cardboard, allow to dry thoroughly.

Discard the base of wine glass. Turn glass upside down, fill with glitter, add glue to rim of glass. Turn the cardboard circle over glue to glass so toy is inside glass. Flip it over so it is upright. Let dry.

Bend pipe cleaner to fit around base add more glue to secure glass to base. Add ribbon to top. Hang on tree.

Snow globe can be flipped over again and again.
