These snow globes will be perfect presents for any holiday, not only for Christmas. So now you and your kids can make them very fast. You will need glass jars, small plastic figurines, glitter, glycerin and hot glue or hot glue gun. First, your kids should select the figures they want to use and arrange them on the lids. Then you can glue the figurines to the lid. Let them dry for long enough to be sure the glue will hold. In the meantime, you can add water to the jars, fill them not quite to the threads. Then add the glycerin (about a half-teaspoon), and the glitter (about a teaspoon). Now carefully screw the lid back onto the jar. It’s time to shake them up and watch it snow!

Phoenix, mom of wonderful 3 year old little man, was so excited she’s finally expecting a baby girl. Basing on the past experience she knew how tricky yet interesting it is to design a nursery for a tot, but this time she could do it differently – as girly as she could. The room turned out very feminine, serene and joyful. There’s a pretty bold combination of blue, pink and green, but it looks surprisingly harmonious, fresh and cheery. As for the room’s décor, I think it has longevity and good possibilities for slight transition, when her child will make more her own as she gets older. Take a look to the photos below to get inspired!
