If you we’re friends with me on swarm (which I know you’re not), you’d know I have a slight obsession with the dollar store. I saw these diy snow globes there the other day and knew we just had to make them as part of our twelve days of handmade Christmas crafts countdown. I was able to pick up three, and Fox decided he wanted to make one for each of “his babies for Christmas”. We used some of Fox’s arctic animals and our handmade bottle brush trees to fill the base. With a dash of glycerin, water, and glitter, our little winter wonderlands were born.
