I am finally feeling like working on a snowglobe project for a gift. I have almost all the supplies.
I want larger snowflakes to include with the glitters I have already purchased. I'm doing a winter scene of evergreen branches with a bird, so I can use larger snowflakes since the scene isn't a tiny town where 1/8th and 1/4 inch snowflakes would look ridiculous.
I figured the peas would know exactly where to buy these snowflakes or how to make them.
I want to do a combination of glitters and snowflakes in the snowglobe. The globe itself is a round glass orb 6 inches in diameter. I lucked out and found a glass globe with a screw on base at a thrift store. It originally held an artificial rose and looked like it was from the 70s.
I will take photos and post them once I start putting all the pieces together. I just want to have everything ready to go before I commence assembling the globe.
The globe is for a friend who collects them. I can't say much and won't post photos until after she receives the package in the mail because she's a good friend and pea.

They won't be huge snowflakes, but I am using Epsom salt with some diamond dust for snow in my Christmas projects. Yours sound very cute!
