Christmas gift in a jar: Snowglobe edition

Even though gifts cards in store packaging are super easy and convenient, I think the special people in my life deserve a little more. That’s why if I have the time, I love to create a little surprise for the loving and caring people around me, showing them a little love back.

This quick mason jar snow globe be a great surprise gift: To make this jar, you only need several household items which mostly likely are hanging out in your house somewhere.

Let’s get started.

First you need:

Any kind of a jar with a very very tight lid

The gift card for your special someone

A hot glue gun

Lots and lots of GLITTER (wooooh, shinny!)

Any sort of embellishments that you like

Water

Food coloring (optional)

Ribbon

Letting started now:

• Heat the glue gun and glue a strip on the inner side of the lid, stand the gift card up and let dry COMPLETELY!
• If you want, glue some ornaments/embellishments beside the gift card.
• Now while you wait, pour some (enough to cover the bottom of the jar and slightly more) glitter in the jar.
• Fill jar with water, 90 per cent full. Some of the glitter should be floating on water now!
• Add more ornaments into the jar!
• Finally, put the top on the snow globe and tie a ribbon around the bottom.
• We are finished! Shake it and you’ll get glitter snowing in the jar!!

  

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
