We found our little truck at Walmart and the miniature trees at Hobby Lobby. But I bet the dollar Tree would have some cute items. We also found several Miniature Collections on Amazon. But note, a wide mouth mason jar is right at 3 inches so you need figures no bigger than 2 inches wide or long.
What you will need for this DIY snow globe mason jar craft:
Supplies:
- Wide mouth mason jar with lid
- Cotton balls
- Mini red truck ornament or ornament of your choice
- Mini trees
- Faux snow
Equipment Needed:
How to make this red truck snow globe:
Glue several cotton balls to the inside of the mason jar lid making sure you acquire some elevation so the decorations can sit up higher than the lid. We piled ours more on one side than the other which made a snowy backdrop. And be sure to firmly attach the cotton balls so that when you turn the lid over they stay in place.
Place the red truck ornament or any other ornament of your choosing and the little trees on top of the cotton balls. And using your glue gun, glue them very securely. Again you can test them by holding the lid up and turning it upside down making sure everything stays in place.
Now add a small amount of your faux snow to the inside of the mason jar.
Screw the lid onto your jar and flip the jar upside down. Now you will be able to shake the jar to move the snow around.
You can place your Christmas snow globe in or around of your Christmas Decorations for a vintage touch. Kids could also make this little DIY mason jar snow globe with red truck along with adult supervision since a hot glue gun is involved.
