A few of our favourite snow globe crafts are the Lego snow globe, the easy mason jar snow globes, and the snow globe cards that are perfect for the holidays and winter greetings. So, what are you waiting for? Get out the glue gun, and let's get started!
Snow Globes for Kids to Make
Mason Jar Snow Globe Craft
Mason jar DIY snow globes are so easy for kids to make. Grab a toy car or mini-figure—whatever your child wants to place inside! Add clear glue, glitter, and a lid, and your snow globe will be ready fast.
Photo Snow Globe
Preserve a special memory inside a handmade picture snow globe! Kids can pick out their favorite holiday memory or any memory from the past year to make a fun keepsake they'll love playing with. These make wonderful holiday gifts for grandparents, too.
Dinosaur Snow Globes
Dinosaur lovers will go crazy over these DIY dinosaur snow globes from Team Cartwright! Turn their favorite dinosaur figures into a miniature scene and make them sparkle with glitter. If you want to add a little more to the scene, glue some rocks or fake plants around the dinosaur.
Waterless Snow Globes
These waterless snow globes by Down Redbud Drive are a great option if you want to place something inside a snow globe that you want to protect and preserve. Instead of shaking it up, though, the snow globe is merely ornamental. By placing the objects on a bed of fake snow inside the jar, you can swap out the scenes whenever you'd like. This is a great idea for kids who may want to use their mini-figures and toys but still be able to pull them out to play with them later.
