Thank you so much. I was just thinking of selling off 20 snow globes that had lost water. Now I will refill and set up my shelves again.

Use rubbing alcohol to clean the music box not vinegar. Same if you have battery acid leakage you need to clean. I love snow globes. Thank you so much. This video has saved so many of my globes.

You can look up snow globes repair shop near you and maybe they can tell you where to get a globe for the one you are missing. It is always nice to talk to someone who knows more about it.

You can buy those music boxes online. Just keep the base that it sits on.

If you let it sit in really hot water for a few minutes it will soften up the rubber cement also.

does the water need to be replaced periodically, I thought regular tap water was not good to use... Also, some globes have an air pocket on top of the water in the globe, is this because it needs more water? thanks for helpful video

Thank you so much. I replaced water in a very simple older snow globe, and it came out very nice. Today I found three more globes. One of them I fould for sale for $40. These have the music box. If I had not ran across your video, I am sure I probably would have ruined it.

I bought FAO Schwarz snowglobe and water is pretty murky. The blower and timer still works and it has little white beads, I guess,as snow. I would live to change the water. Do you think it could possibility be the same way to fix?
@Cruzbeast69gaming11 ай бұрын
Ummm .. Don't use tap water...use distilled water and use glycerin...up to 3 teaspoons....depends on size of the globe and how fast or slow you want the glitter to float.

Thank you for sharing! I have a very large Christmas Snow Globe that I have taken apart and searching for a replacement rubber gasket and a few other items to see if I can fix it for this Holiday Season as I did not manage last year. It also has a ring that turns for music. Let's see!!!

This was an excellent explanation - you went through every detail slowly and clearly - I feel confident to open mine up and replace the water... Have you ever had a music box that looked as bad as the one in this video that actually worked after you gave it the vinegar treatment? Mine looks very much like yours did initially, completely gunked up with some kind of deposits and frozen solid I found a replacement on ebay for ~$12

My snow globe is only a few years old and it has weird chunks in it, is this mold? Either way glad it's not ruined and I can still fix it! I haven't seen the same one in stores since.

Use distilled water. Add a small amount of glycerin for any glitter. Such as for 1 cup of water, 3 teaspoons glycerin, and 3 teaspoons glitter (there slight variations so there is wiggle room).

Your comment caught my eye - if you didn't get a response I just wanted to add that you can do this repair -- practice on an old one - take pics or record as you go for reassembly. You've got this!!! Plus I added this info - it sounded to me like she was using faucet water so she's gonna end up with bacteria in the snow globes at some point depending on quality of water but it'll definitely happen. Use distilled water. Add a small amount of glycerin for any glitter. Such as for 1 cup of water, 3 teaspoons glycerin, and 3 teaspoons glitter (there are slight variations to these ratios so there is wiggle room). Good luck!
