Miniature Mason Jar Snow Globe Ornament

Christmas· Winter

Today’s quick and easy project is brought to you by a few of my favorite things: mason jars, bottle brush trees and snow globes! I will show you how simple it is to create these DIY snow globe mason jar ornaments. These would make perfect Christmas neighbor gifts.

Supplies needed to make your own DIY snow globe mason jar:

  • Fillable Clear Mason Jar Style Ornament (currently out of stock, see other fillable ornaments HERE)
  • Bottle Brush Trees
  • White Air Dry Modeling Clay
  • Fake Snow
  • 5/8 inch Red & White Ribbon
  • White Iridescent Glitter

Because the mason jar lid drops downward inside the jar, the first thing I did was make an air-dry clay “hill” to raise the trees up a little.

Select two trees from your variety pack – I used a 4″ and a 2″ tree.

Grab a piece of air-dry clay and work it until it is pliable.

Roll the clay into a ball and flatten it into the mason jar lid.

Take care to leave room around the perimeter to allow for the jar lid to fit over your “hill.”

Insert the trees into the clay to make indentations where they will stand.

Set the clay aside to completely dry. Your “hill” doesn’t need to be smooth and pretty. It will be covered up with a blizzard soon!

Once the clay is dry, hot glue the base of each tree to the clay indentations. Be generous with the hot glue. You don’t want your trees popping off once the snow globe is finished.

You can cover up any hot glue by throwing some snow onto the glue while it is still tacky.

Add snow to the globe. Fill the globe about 1/5 of the way full.

Add some iridescent glitter to the snow mix. I was going to say this step is optional, but for me it isn’t! I love glitter!

Adhere your tree “hill” to the lid of the mason jar, and insert the lid into the jar. You could add a little bit of adhesive to the jar lid if you want to secure it permanently from little hands.

Set the jar upright and add a twine tie and ribbon bow on the top of the ornament.

You can secure the ribbon bow with some adhesive as well.

That’s it! Repeat for as many DIY snow globe mason jar ornaments as you like.
