Description

Create a charming DIY Under the Sea Snow Globe that captures the magic of the ocean with customizable sea creatures and glitter.


Ingredients

  • Clear glass jar with a lid (e.g., mason jar)
  • Glycerin
  • Distilled water
  • Glitter or fake snow
  • Small plastic sea creatures (e.g., fish, starfish)
  • Waterproof glue
  • Decorative elements (e.g., sand, shells, colored stones)
  • Optional: food coloring

Instructions

  1. Start by cleaning your glass jar thoroughly to ensure clarity. Dry it completely before moving on to the next step.
  2. Choose your favorite sea creatures and decorative elements. Use waterproof glue to securely attach them to the inside of the jar lid. Allow the glue to dry completely.
  3. In a bowl, combine approximately 1 cup of distilled water with 2 tablespoons of glycerin. Stir the mixture until combined. This will help your “snow” fall slowly.
  4. Sprinkle glitter or fake snow into the same jar. The more you add, the snowier your globe will look! Just make sure not to overfill.
  5. Carefully pour the glycerin and water mixture into the jar over the glitter and decorations. Seal the jar tightly with the lid, ensuring no leaks.
  6. Flip your globe upside down and shake gently. Watch the glitter dance and settle! Make any adjustments if needed, and enjoy your underwater creation!

Notes

Custom creatures can be added to represent your theme, and food coloring can be used for a fun effect. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent leaks.
