Glitter Domes

What you need:

One jar with tight lid (any size, but smaller looks better), baby food jars.

One plastic figure (your choice) and any other plastic decorations to make a scene.

Glitter

Superglue

Ribbon and lace

**Hint - Glycerin stabilizes the glitter
(but don't use too much glycerin as it might cause glitter clumping)

What you do:

Superglue the figure and decorations to the inside of lid. Make sure you leave enough space around the edge for the jar to screw down in.

Fill your jar with water, but not all the way to the top. Leave enough room for the decorations and glitter.

Put the glitter in the jar. For every inch of water you need 1 teaspoon of glitter.

Screw on the lid. For extra security you can glue the lid on.

Glue lace around the bottom edge of the lid to hide it. Put the ribbon over the glued lace.
