How do you hand make a snow-globe?

Answer 1

There are kits you can buy to make snow globes. I bought one and I made I think 4, it was very easy. All you do was take the bottom and you can use clay to model a figure to put inside, then you take the top (the glass part(which in the kit i think is plastic)) and fill it with water and it come with sparkles to put in it then put the sparkles in and connect to 2 pieces and wella! You are done! Look around for some kits, I think I got mine from target. They are about $20. If you don't want to buy a kit then I am sure you can look up how to make one online.

Hope I helped! :)

Answer 2

True snow globes are made of glass, a plug that fits into the opening in the glass, liquid, interior design, glitter or "snow" and a base. (There are also plastic snow domes, but that's a little different.)

The interior design must be created so that it is small enough to fit into the opening of the globe and not too tall to be distorted by the liquid and glass shape. The small sculpture has to be safe in liquid, and if painted, the paint must be treated so that it will not "bleed' dye into the liquid over time.

The sculpture or design is glued to the rubber plug and allowed to dry. The globe is placed upside down (hole facing up) and partially filled with liquid. Glitter or "snow bits" are dropped into the liquid. When the sculpture has completedly dried on the plug, ease the sculpture into the liquid, and slowly push the plug into place, displacing liquid slowly. If the liquid doesn't drip over the side, you don't have enough liquid and a bubble will develop. When the plug is pushed into place, turn the globe right side up and place into the base. The base must have an indent to hold the plug. This is usually glued into place. Allow to dry and cure, then shake.

You will need: Old Jar, Silicone or superglue, Benzoic acid, water, and a small little ornament,

First stick the figure onto the lid. In a beaker heat 250 ml of water. Measure out 3.0 grams of Benzoic acid and add it to the water. Stir continuously until all of the Benzoic acid has dissolved. Remove the beaker from the heat and let sit. Crystals will begin to form on the top when a layer has formed stir so it drops to the bottom. Continue to stir until a lot of crystals have formed. Add the solution to the jar once the ornament is secure on the lid, screw it on. Turn it over so the lid is the base. Done.

1. You first of all get an empty jar and a lid which goes with it making sure that when you put the lid on no liquid will leak out.

2. Next you get a little character or object and glue it on the bottom making sure it is a strong glue, however if its a shell or something like that you dont have to glue it.

3. Once your object is in the jar add some glitter in it depends on the jar to see how much glitter to add but it is up to you how much.

4. Once you have done hat you can get a liquid like water or Glycerin can be good and pour it in be careful not to spill it an adult can help you with it.

5. Afterwards once you have poured it up to the top put the lid on and turn it upside down over a sink just to double check it wont leak out.

6. Shake it, watch and enjoy!!!

Hope this has helped you make the perfect snow globe!!

Answer 5

Get a jar and put a toy in the jar and put water and glitter in the jar and put the lid on and shake it.
