craftymamaof4: Valentine Snow Globes

Materials

1 ~ 8 oz plastic water bottle with lid

Water

Liquid glycerin

Assorted Valentine sequins, non paper confetti(you can make your own by using small paper punches and punching out shapes from any plastic material), seed beads, glitter

Red food coloring (use VERY little or it will be too much color in the water)

Ribbon or lace

Directions

Fill the bottle ¾ of the way with water.  Using a medicine dropper add about 5 ml of the liquid glycerin.  Have the kids add whatever sparkle they want to the bottle.  Add teeny tiny drop of food coloring (not necessary, if you do use it use very little!)  Put the lid on the bottle, making sure it is very tight.  Decorate the top of the bottle by tying ribbons or lace around the lid.  Attach a gift tag with a special “I Love You” message.  Shake it up and watch it swirl.

Happy Valentine’s Day
