Wow!! A snow globe that can hold a photo?! by Craft Workshop Felicia

An original snow globe made with a stylish plastic case and a photo is perfect as a gift for a close friend! Attach a photo to the back of the plastic case so it’s visible from the front, then cover it with a protective seal.

After that, pour in purified water and liquid laundry starch, add glitter, and it’s done in no time.

Give them a shimmering keepsake made with a memorable photo, and they’re sure to love it.

The higher the liquid’s viscosity, the more slowly the glitter will fall, so adjust it to your liking.

Flower snow globe ring

A perfect challenge for anyone who loves detailed work: a miniature snow globe made with resin and a ring.

For the dome, use nail stickers to recreate flowers in full bloom; for the base, decorate with a ring and ceramic flower parts to evoke a flower field.

Attach each part, inject baby oil with a syringe, and it’s complete.

The key to a beautiful finish is fully curing the resin at each step! It’s a bit advanced, but if you work carefully, you’ll end up with a piece so polished it’s hard to believe it’s handmade.

A must-see for anyone who supports idols or anime characters! How about making your favorite acrylic stand shine even more inside a snow globe? Stand the acrylic stand upright and stick it to the bottom of a plastic display box used for figures.

For items that can’t stand on their own, we recommend securing them with rubber outlet caps.

Next, pour into the case a liquid made by mixing water and glycerin at a 9:1 ratio, adding snowflakes or glitter.

Attach the bottom securely, and you’re done! If your collection has gotten a bit out of hand, give this a try!

The trick is to choose a small jar about the same size as the Miffy figure.

Miffy standing serenely amid swirling sparkles—it’s soothing even before you start making it.
