snow globes anyone?

I needed to come up with an art project

for my class for Monday...

so today I put on my thinking cap

and came up with this 2D snow globe.

I decided to share the prototype now

in case someone out there needed a project

to do with the kiddos asap...

so first I painted a winter scene

on cardboard...

then I added some stars and snow glitter...

then I painted acrylic snow on left over laminate

from the laminating machine at school...

(the librarian saves it for me)

so then I put a strip of glue around 3/4s of the globe

and sewed over it to attach.

I poured a tablespoon of snow glitter,

and some stars into the top opening,

then glued that edge and sewed it close.

(notice my faithful friend)

Voila!

a fun winter project

and it even shakes!
