DIY Snow Globe – Dollar Tree Craft

dollar tree dry snow globe craft

One of the most magical things to do during the holidays is shaking a snow globe. You get to watch an entire world spring to life, you get to make an entire world spring to life. The downside to snow globes is that if they break they leave a big mess behind. That’s why this year I’m making these DIY dry snow globes using materials from Dollar Tree.

Here’s how I made this DIY Dry Snow Globe, and the materials I used.

Materials:

  • 1 glass jar with lid
  • 1 package styrofoam floral balls in various sizes
  • gold & silver glitter
  • mini pom poms (black)
  • 1 pipe cleaner (orange)
  • black construction paper
  • raffia and burlap scraps
  • black marker

Next, I cut small bits of orange pipe cleaner to make the noses and used markers to create the eyes and the mouths. I used the scraps of burlap and raffia pieces to make scarves, and black construction paper to make little hats. Then I trimmed the hats with glitter glue, just to give them a little pop of color.

After I glued the snowmen to the jar lid I added gold and silver glitter. I screwed the lid onto the top, added some festive ribbon, and that was it.
