Glitter Globes

Snow globes are awesome - especially when you make them yourself!

Here is what you will need for each snowglobe:
A jar - a small one like a baby-food jar works well
Lid from a water/plastic bottle or similar
Glitter
Plastic toy or trinket to put inside
Ribbon or rick-rack to decorate the outside
glue - must be non-water-soluble

Pick your toy, then pick a jar that it will fit into.  Glue your toy to the lid from a plastic bottle (on the top), then glue that to the inside of your jar lid.  Wait for it to dry COMPLETELY!!!  Then add water, glitter, put the lid on, and decorate the outside.  You can glue your jar lid on if it makes you feel better!
