What about mini snow globes? I've seen some made without water too- they're more of a mini Christmas display. Otherwise, I like the ornament idea.

Super cute! Too bad I don't have little jars like that, I wonder if they sell those at craft stores? That's a cute little idea.

I think you can use baby food jars. I saw ones that used plastic dollar store glasses. They cut the stem and used them as ornaments. No water, of course! I'll try to find the link.

Silly me. I have a TON of mason jars with lids...even small ones. I could probably use those!

These aren't the ones I was talking about- the other ones used plastic wine glasses. But I couldn't find the link. The above ones look easier and more affordable.

That is cute, too! I have a ton of mason jars with lids, so we're going to give the water ones a trial run this week. If it fails, we'll default to these! Thank you so much.

You're welcome! Just a tip: if you have glycerin add a small drop to the water. It helps the glitter stay suspended longer. But it's not a must! I found glycerin at the craft store but walmart sells it in their baking aisle. You can use tap water but Distilled is recommended. I'm making these with my girls!
