How to make your Paper Snow Globes:
Step 1: Paint a winter sky on the inside of your paper plate. The white area will be where it has snowed.
Step 2: While the paint is drying, take your family photo and cut your family out of the scene.
Step 3: Glue your family into your snow scene.
Step 4: Use your winter stickers or markers to create a more detailed winter scene. Get as creative as you want by drawing some trees, snowflakes, or reindeer!
Step 5: Pour some of the fake snow over everything and onto the plate.
Step 6: Hot glue (be sure to have a grown-up do this step) the clear plastic plate face down to the paper plate to seal everything in. Don’t shake your snow globe until the glue cools and you are sure the plastic plate has sealed everything in! You may have to go back around to some places and fill them in with hot glue. To ensure that the plates are sealed together, we went back around the entire circle with our hot glue gun.
Step 7: Shake the fake snow inside your globe and enjoy!
Save this craft for years to come so you can look back on how your family has grown. We hope this family snow globe project brings some extra winter wonder into your home this holiday season.
