How to: make your own snowglobe

snowglobe.jpgSnow snow snow. I love it. Other folks may moan on about chilly toes, slippy pavements and delayed trains but I can't help grinning like an idiot when the world gets all snowy. Which is why I love the idea of crafting your own little snowy world to keep year round with your very own snowglobe.

The crafty kids site Kaboose leads you through a simple tutorial taking jam jars (a bit of recycling while you craft), a glue gun, some crafty bits and a sprinkling of glitter to create your own winter wonderland.

The innards of your snowscene are entirely up to you. You can whip yourself a twee snowman scene or go a little nutty and make yourself a plastic dinosaur snow apocalypse or a plastic Spiderman taking on a yeti. I like the idea of a little London phone box from a tacky souvenir shop being given a bit of a snowy makeover.

See the full how to on Kaboose here.

If it fits in a jam jar you can snow it up. Go forth and snowglobe, crafty people.
