Snowglobe Cloche

I found this great glass vase at a thrift store for a dollar, I went to my box of snowmen and selected one and got out my fake snow. I taped the snowman to the bottom of the wooden green box and put some snow in the glass cloche and turned the box upside down to get the snowman in the cloche then flipped it right side up. Some of the snow stayed on the glass sides and now looks like a snow globe with NO water added!

To make the glass vase into a cloche I used 6000 glue to add the porceline ring and a 1/2 of a small glass container. I think it was a small candle at one time with a lid.



Happy Holidays
