Tis the season to think of cute crafty stocking stuffers, and this one is super cute! Make a mini snowglobe out of recycled vending machine bubbles, mini ornaments, and glitter. They have vending machines at my dollar store, so you will even be able to get the plastic bubbles at the dollar store! [project: chica and jo]

Project Estimate:

  • Vending machine bubble, $.25 or on hand
  • Mini ornament, a bunch for $1
  • Glitter, $1
  • Baby oil/mineral oil, $1
  • Silicone sealant, $1

Total Cost: $4.25 plus $.25 for plastic bubbles for each additional snowglobe

    Wow – I think this is not only totally adorable, but it’s a VERY clever, money saving idea.

    I love it.

    Thanks for sharing this with us viewers.

    This is so cute. Depending on what toy came in the bubble it might be fun to use it as the figure in the snowglobe. Either way, this is a great idea. Thanks for sharing it.
