[@dorothypate971]

Hi Amanda, I’ve come from mr carrington’s channel. I will look at Charlie’s next.xx

[@gailhickman743]

You need a tad of glycerine and some silver glitter in the snowglobe. The glycerine stops the snow from falling so fast and the glitter will give it some bling! 😀

[@marilyncasas6679]

Hello Amanda Mr Carrington send me to stop by and see what you are DIYing.

[@amandaoakince]

Hello, Marilyn. Welcome over here. Thank you for stopping by 🎄x

[@jemmajames6719]

The snow globe add a little bit of Glycerine to the water you can buy it from chemists or baking section in the supermarket, it slows the fall of the ‘snow’. Also super glue the seal of the snow globe lid with waterproof glue. My sons made a snow globes around 25 years ago from a jam jars and I still put them out every year, they still have most of the water in them. I’m hoping they still are ok this year after a couple of house moves.

[@amandaoakince]

Hi Jemma, Thank you so much for your tips. We did make another one and added some glitter and sparkling beads. It turned a treat. Thank you for watching. Happy New Year x

[@flowerlady-e5u]

Hello I follow Ewin and was asked to check you out. Great craft.❤

[@amandaoakince]

Thank you x

[@carliem9494]

Few drops of washing up liquid, baby oil or glycerin in the water thickens it and allows the snow to suspend better in the snow globes. Also, if you’ve used tap water (without boiling) you’ll need to change the water regularly or it’ll grow mould

[@LouciferFlump]

You sound like a real snow globe expert! Thanks for the tips! 👍🏻

[@carliem9494]

@@LouciferFlump years ago - making them with my kids (in old jam jars! nothing so fancy as these purpose-made items and taped round the lids to stop them leaking 😂 - we used the water from the condensing tumble dryer and I have a vague recollection of also using pva glue to help “thicken” the water (can’t remember how good that was though), glycerin is best. And, as someone else has mentioned, the addition of glitter really makes it magical.

[@joycebrown5067]

Mr Carrington told us to look at your channel. Find you very good

@@amandaoakince☺️ Don’t forget to boil the water and add a bit of baby oil too. They were great tips from another commenter for the longevity of your creation.
