Materials & Tools I used for Upcycled Glass Snowglobes

  • Empty glass jars (clean & sticker free)
  • My favorite glue gun – Gorilla Glue
  • Cardstock for photo (you can use photo paper)
  • Faux snow (snowballs & sparkle snow)
  • Bakers twine & embellishments
  • Scissors
  • White chalk pen (to write the year on top)
  • Wood dowel or pencil to help put photo in position when gluing
  • Paint for the jar lid (we used Brushed Copper spray paint by Rustoleum)

How to Make an Upcycled Glass Snow Globe

  1. Find some empty glass jars with lids. Be sure that the tops are wide enough to beable to insert your photo through the top.
  2. Clean the label & glue off your jar. I use lemon essential oil or goo gone & magic eraser for stubborn stickers. Wiping down your jar with rubbing alcohol will remove any oil or spots.
  3. Next, cut your photograph to the size of the jar. (We printed our photo on cardstock after adding the background image on Canva.com)
  4. Fold the bottom of your photo over to make a “stand or base” this will allow your piece to stand and for a place to hold the glue.
  5. Once your image is glued down its time to add the snow! (We added just under an inch per jar).
  6. Add your lid & embellishments!

Add embellishments for a finished look
Using larger jars for family photos!

I hope you enjoyed this simple upcycled project and that you will make your version this holiday season! It’s a fun project to make with kids and a wonderful gift for Grandparents 😉

Blessings, Kim
