Quick Craft: Magical Mason Jar Snowglobe

by Shelby Smith

Recently, I was going through some of my old arts and crafts creations at home, and I came across this magical mason jar snowglobe!  This super-simple sensory art project is fun for all ages and skill levels, and can be made with a combination of crafting, recyclable, and household materials.

 
The must-have items are:
 
  • water
  • a glass or clear plastic container with a water-tight lid

 

For the inside, you can use a variety of crafting, recyclable, and household items such as:

  • buttons
  • beads
  • glitter
  • gemstones
  • sequins
  • tin foil
  • nuts & bolts
  • broken jewelry
  • small or broken toys
  • cut-up candy wrappers (particularly coloured foil wrappers!)
  • old keys
  • paperclips
  • bottle caps
  • and so much more!

 

Simply add the items to your clear container, fill with water, close the lid tightly, and shake to reveal the magic!
