Welcome to this weeks demo, friends!! We hope you’ve been enjoying all of the snow!! Let’s catch some of that magical snowy goodness and create a Snowglobe in a Vial!
Check out the full video here:
This craft is so fun and customizable!! There are so many kinds of glitter, shimmers, and sparkles to add to your snow! You can also create your very own potion name!!
Let’s start by choosing our vial!!
Now that you have your vial, let’s sort through all of the kinds of glitters you could use!
I love adding Mica Powder to my Snowglobe because it creates a shimmer every time you shake it!!
You can add chunky glitter or very fine glitter! Add water to nearly the top when you’re satisfied with the amount of snow inside!!
Now that you have all of your favorite glitter and shimmer bits, it’s time to create the snowglobe solution!!
Fill your vial Mostly up with water! Add a single drop of glue to thicken the solution- this will help the sparkles stay in the ‘air’!!
Time to seal it up!! Using hot glue, make a generous topping of glue and smoosh the cork on top!
Sprinkle with glitter and it will appear the snow is bubbling out!!
Let’s decorate the outside of our vial!!
Attach some double-sided tape to the back of your paper and run the snowflake die-cut through the die machine!!
Stick these wherever looks most magical!
You can attach a little eyelet to the top of your vial to create a Necklace or hang your potion someplace magical!!
Now is the fun part of deciding your potions name!!! Is this a ~Bit of Winter~ or the ~Essence of Winter~?
Wondering how to name your potion??
Think of your most favorite thing about your potion- is it the shimmer? The sparkles? The dripping seal?
What does this remind you of? Snow falling? Cozy winter nights?
Your potions name will come to mind, it’s perfect!!
There you have your very own Snowglobe Potion!! What a magical thing you’ve created!!
This craft is available all week and we Always have vials and glitter ready for you to create a Bit of Winter any time!!
So excited to create with you, my magical friends!!
See you soon~
