SNOW GLOBES

These delightful little globes are easy to love and even easier to make. To make a classic tree, use the tree die from our Village Die Set. To make a full tree, stack and bend Nesting Circles to create a ruffled evergreen. Frost the edges of your trees with glitter for an extra touch of glamour. Then, adhere the tree to the lid of a mason jar. Fill your jar with fake snow or glitter, twist the lid closed and turn it over to enjoy the charming glow.
