Tracks and paving




Ahead a lot of holidays, and I want to somehow surprise your loved ones with unusual gifts. Consider how to make snowball do it yourself at home.

With my own hands, with a big desire, you can make a beautiful and stylish New Year's snowball from the jar with your own hands. In this material, we give a few master classes after which questions are how a snowball is done without glycerin with their own hands or with the use of glycerin will no longer be.

Separately, I want to emphasize the fact that many people think like a ball with snow inside with their own hands is difficult. In fact, here not only there are no difficulties, but the whole process of crafts is quite simple and understandable. The presence of glycerin in the initial components should not be embarrassed. This substance can be bought in any pharmacy without a recipe for a penny, it is not difficult to work with this substance.

Simple and easy

To create such a ball, you need a bank with a well-spinning lid, that is, a vessel eventually should be sealed and not to lose this tightness in the process of use. Additionally, to protect against leakage, the threads are already ready to cry.




As decorations inside the jar, you can use christmas toys, Figures Santa Claus, Snow Maiden or Angel. Especially beautiful with falling snow, houses and trees look. The glue needs waterproof, they will need to glue the selected figures to the lid of the can.

As for snow, without which it is impossible to present a New Year's ball with their own hands from the bank, then for its imitation you can just take artificial snow, sequins or even crushed white plastic. Glycerin in this craft is needed so that the snow fell slowly, and did not lure all right away. The more glycerin will be diluted in water, the higher the water viscosity and snow will be more slowly.




Tip! If the snowflakes are large in your craft, then you need to take a large number of Glycerin. On a bank a 400 ml, 100 ml of glycerin will suffice. But it is recommended to add glycerol slowly and each time checking how much the speed of the fall of your snow is changing as much as this amount of this substance.

As for the water for crafts, it is best to take distilled water if the ball is made as a gift or it is planned to store it for a long time. Otherwise just water is suitable From under the crane, the main thing is that there is no extra sediment (for this purpose it is further defended). Work is recommended in disposable gloves.



About how to make a snow ball, a specific assembly process and step-by-step photos, Tell further in this material. It is necessary to take a job for a job somewhere, try to do everything, according to the instructions, so that the craft is beautiful from the first time.

I propose to make a version of the snowy ball, which you probably saw on store shelves.
For such a ball, a small glass jar (100-300 ml) of a rounded shape is well suited. Depending on what holiday you will be ahead, you can pick up small figurines or figures,. It looks well at the figures from the eggs in the chanda. My daughter always takes the figures that are repeated. And specifically for the new year you can make it yourself.

An integral part of this craft is glycerin, it will help keep small glitter in water. Glycerin you can buy in a pharmacy.

Well, and, of course, many different glitter or gliters are needed in this work.
Follow a little time, call your children and proceed to collecting all the elements for the manufacture of a snowy ball.

What makes a snow ball "Angel":

- water;
- glycerin;
- glass jar with lid;
- glass pebbles for decoration;
- Figurine;
- acrylic paint;
- blasting;
- cosmetic gliter;
- glue gun.




How to make a snow ball from jars

Choosing a stick for a jar, take it so that it looks well visible and occupied at least half of the future bowl. In my case, this angel, it will be good for a gift to your beloved person.

Water in the manufacture of a snow bowl from the jar with their own hands, use necessarily clean, passed through the filter, mix it with glycerol (in a proportional ratio, the amount of water to the glycerin will be 2: 1).
Connect water with glycerin in the containers, stir well.




The lid of jars can be painted with a brush, lubricated in acrylic paint if its color does not suit you. Take only acrylic paint, she dries quickly and smears hands. To make a figure just above, you can glue glass pebbles on the cover or something else to help exalted it.




Stick on the pebbles an angel angel with glue with a pistol or another strong after drying with glue.




Throw different glitter and glyter into a clean jar, you can also use very small beads.




Pour fluid into a jar to practically trust, stir glitter.




Now it is responsible to take the following step. Mix the jar of jars with glue, and tighten the cover tightly.




Let it be good to dry with glue for 15-25 minutes, and you can brush and turn your snowball from the bank "Angel". You can also reap the cap, paint it and glue a beautiful fabric.



And with the children you can do.

This is how you can make a snow ball with your own hands. Difficulties in this process, how to make a snow ball, it should not arise. Just follow the instructions, immediately prepare everything necessary materials and tools. When the cutting is already packed, then inside the ball you can create more complex winter compositions.

With the upcoming holiday!

Regards, Elbe.

Hello everyone! And again we will create! Today, in front of me and my karapuz is a challenge - a snaps of a snow ball with your own hands. And you know, we are happy to rub his palms in anticipation of a miracle! And this miracle we will do themselves! I suggest all of you to be witnesses and accomplices. We will create all together!

What are we talking about in the article? At first I will voice some details regarding required tools and material. Then subtleties for the manufacture of a ball. And at the end I prepared you a master class. The program is extensive and developed taking into account the help of the karapusov! It seems that everything is so serious that there is nothing to trust them. But, I think that we will find something that the kids will be able to do! Here we go?!

Required Material for the manufacture of crafts






When you hold this ball in your hands, it seems that the only thing that you need for its manufacture is magic. A little shook him, and suddenly it was scattered in a charming snowy day. True riddle! And really, this mystery can be done at home? Yes! Can! And you need!

For this we need:

  • Bank
  • Water - 5 parts
  • Glycerin - 1 part
  • "Snow"
  • History in the plot

Is any bank suitable? Does any material become snow? And what story to choose? Let's answer these questions!

Bank. We need to be clearly clearly visible in the bank. And therefore, plastic or a bank with a pattern, a pattern, sticker or edges, will not fit.

Water. Of course, everything will be much easier without water. But our goal is that the snow spin and slowly fell. Therefore, water is needed. And without it in any way! That's just how to make the snow do not swim on the surface and saddened slowly? It is for this that it is worth making a solution from glycerol.

Glycerol. It should be quite a lot, then the snowflakes twist. Ideally, the proportions of glycerin and water should be 1 to 5. Without glycerol, the ball can be done, but the snowflakes will quickly fall on the bottom. From quantity glycerin It will depend on the speed of rotation of snowflakes than it is more, the slower they will spin. Many are interested in the question can Lie to dosnow ball without glycerin Just on the water? We answer, no, without glycerin Snowflakes will immediately fall on the bottom.

"Snow". What is suitable? Sequins, sliced \u200b\u200bpieces of thin plastic or foil, artificial snow.

History in the plot. Here it is worth thinking. First, what should be the plot? Best of all, if it is thematic. After all, the ball can be made on any holiday as a gift. You can take plants like decorations, figures, like heroes, etc. It looks original with a photo inside. But the photo is worth preliminary or covered with scotch.

And you can even make as a gift - key chain with flying snow.





Tricks that help make a cool snow ball

Now I will continue the topic started. I just show how you can make a "ball" in different versions.

First of all, who said that you need to be puzzled banks? They can be any shape and sizes. The main condition is to the toy beautifully looked inside the jar, the container must be either slightly convex, and / or be sure to 2-3cm above the figure.

Our New Year's story suggests that there will be snow. I offered a choice of several options. But this is mainly ready-made products. How to make artificial snow with your own hands at home? Yes, you can cut, as I said, plastic. But you can grab the candle or solid soap on a small grater. Only in this or different case, the water very soon will like. There are 2 more options for the manufacture of snow alone: \u200b\u200bthe egg shell, which was dried, and then crushed; Or, the filler of diapers. It should be removed and smoother. And not to distinguish from natural snow.

And then I will answer the question that may have arisen with you. Is it possible to make a ball without glycerol? Easily! It is replaced by a very sweet syrup or vaseline oil. Some take instead of glycerin refined vegetable oil. This idea also take note.

And one more nuance. For complete sealing, a silicone tape is needed or, thin rubber, as it can be used a medical glove, sliced \u200b\u200bwith ribbons.

Without glue design camsulate! Look for glue that the water was not afraid. And it is desirable to quickly frozen.

Last thing. The lid itself does not look at neither presentable, nor elegantly. It is worth "disguise". Than? Ribbon, bow, paper stripe.

Let's get together a new year craft

Since holidays are near, my baby decided to make a snow ball for the new year. At first they wanted to buy figures of festive heroes. But went over everything we have, and found everything you need. Therefore, they did not postpone the creative process while there is time and a suitable mood.

Set of materials and tools for making crafts:

  • A tightening lid bank;
  • Figurine frog-santry frost with a red cap and skiing;
  • Twigs of the Christmas tree and juniper;
  • Rain;
  • Glue "moment";
  • Silicone tape;
  • Scissors;
  • Water;
  • Glycerol;
  • Tape;
  • Bung;
  • Styrofoam;
  • Foil balls.

First of all, we do neat holes in a tube from a 5-liter water bottle, and insert decor from plants into the holes.

After when we fill the whole cover with glue, the design will become completely stable. But now it is worth trying so that the holes are small, and that the plants deeply enter them.


We fill with the cover with glue and install the Figure "Santa Claus", lay out "drifts" from foil balls. And in the spaces between them glue the pieces of foam.


Design ready. Fix it on the lid of banks. We carry out glue along the bottom of the lid. And when we put it in place, additionally fix glue droplets from all sides.


Plug the lid tape.


Cooking water. We pour it first half, then add glycerin. If you need, even pour water, but remember that some place will take our design.

Fully remove the air from the bank is not always possible. And no need to do this, no.


Cut from the rain "Snow", and slightly crumbling foam. Here is the last - I liked it very much. So much liked that it was imperceptible from him the part of his "work" to catch and remove from the bank, and otherwise everything would be in the snow by the most riz.


Before connecting the lid and banks, take care of complete sealing. Plug by silicone tape threads.


Everything! The last stage is to spin the lid and turn the jar! And we really like it!

Snow is spinning


And settles.


Snowball - One of the most popular Christmas souvenirs worldwide. Inside the glass toys are usually some figures - snowmen, small Christmas trees, elegant houses or other traditional characters. It is worth shaking this simple composition, how the fairy tale comes to life: artificial snow or blasting is slowly circling and gradually settle. Such an interesting handicap and a memorable gift can be easily made with your own hands and at home.

How to make a snow ball?

To snowballit was bright, add sparkles, but not too small. If you are not sure about the quality of sequins that can contain gold dust instead of small grains, you can use a conventional tinsel, which is finely cut by conventional scissors. You can also use artificial snow or beads.

You still need:

  • figurine (any suitable size and which is not dissolved in water, you can even a cubized photo or a picture),
  • beautiful bank with a well-closing lid (I used half a liter, but you can use even jars from under baby food, the main thing is to find a suitable figure of the figure),
  • universal glue moment
  • the glycerin is liquid at least 1/3 of the volume of the jar (the amount also depends on how slow you want to fall "snow", the more glycerin, the slower. The main thing is not to overdo it, otherwise "snow" will hang in the air all the time ),
  • water (or filtered, or boiled or distilled. If you take simple water from under the tap, then over time your snow ball will close),
  • adhesive pistol.

If you decorate a jar or make a decorative stand, like me, additionally prepare:

  • satin ribbons, decorative twigs, flowers, etc. For jewelry jar,
  • cardboard (but not hard)
  • scotch,
  • scissors,
  • self-adhesive film - gold,
  • pVA glue,
  • dry sparkles - gold,
  • thin brush
  • well, already listed, glue thermopystole.

So let's get up!

Well wash the jar, the lid, the figure and all additional decorations so that water does not close the water over time. I processed all the boiling poles as for conservation.


Krepim everyone decorative elements To the lid on hot glue.

I have already used snow as imitation: tinsel, sequins and beads.

I will tell you how to make a snowball with sparkles, as there are its subtleties here. There are no such problems with Misheo and beads.

We take a clean jar, in my case half-liter, pour 150-250 ml of glycerol.

The rest is poured with water (the jar is not fill to the edge, because we still fit the figure, which will displace some amount of water).

We add sparkles and mix clean spoons.

Even if large sparkles, there are such particles that did not dare to the bottom of the jar. We must definitely collect them, otherwise they will always be flooded from above, and it looks, just say, not very. You can make it a small spoon or tip of a pure waffle towel.

Now it is very careful, better above the plate, immerse our composition in a jar, cutting it a bit so that there are no air bubbles anywhere. Firmly firmly twist the lid. You need to try to close so that air bubbles remain in the jar. Since we inside the cap were not lined, if necessary, it will be possible to remake.

When the lid is spinning, it is possible to walk along the joint on top of the universal glue (if any, then it is possible to water). There were never problems with such jars, therefore glue, in principle, serves only for fixing the lid so that no one has opened it.

Our snow ball is ready! Little to place it to hide all traces of the lid and jars.

From multiple cardboard strips, you can make a solid coexier, go to her golden self-adhesive film. The diameter is equal to the diameter of the lid. Decorate with all sorts of ribbons, branches, it all depends on your desire and fantasy!








I added a little curls from the sequin, with their help hidden the thread at the bottom of the jar and all sorts of unnecessary numbers to us. To do this, we divorce 1: 1 water and PVA glue, generously add dry sparkle into this mixture. The curls drew an ordinary thin brush.

But what happened to me!



And with flying sparkles ...

This magical gift will love both children and adults. Everyone will be confused by the magic melting behind the glass. Give each other joy and here are so wonderful snowballs made by your own hands, in which the particle of your soul and heat is invested!

I was glad to help!

Many of you have seen a souvenir in the form of a transparent jar or a bottle, inside of which live flowers, petals and herbs are bugged. Today we will tell you how to make such beauty with your own hands. You will be surprised how easy it is.

Even children will cope with this master class. By the way, in art schools, they often learn this technique. And this is understandable: simple harmless components and a completely stunning result.

Those who love flowers take care of them and always very hard part with gift bouquets, our tips will especially like. Now you have a chance to save the dear heart the flower is very and very long. Not in priority form, of course, but still it is better than sending plants into the trash can.

What do we need?

  • clean transparent capacity (better glass - so more effectively)
  • hot water
  • glycerin (it can be found in the departments for creativity or even in a pharmacy)
  • petals, Flowers, Grass
  • wooden spanca
  • water soluble dyes (optional)

How to preserve flowers in glycerin?

The bottle must be pretty wash and dry. If plants have stalks, their ends should be split in half into several centimeters (or millimeters, if short). It is necessary so that the solution is better penetrated into the flowes.

Tip: Do not use plants with damaged leaves. Also do not take too thin, almost transparent petals.

In a separate tank, we mix water with glycerin in proportion 2: 1 (two parts of boiling water, one - glycerol). Let's cool the mixture to cool room temperature And pour it into our transparent container.

Immerse in a bottle of petals, herbs and flowers. With the help of a wooden spat "Seep" them as like.

If you want to give an accessory of some color, water can be used in advance with a natural dye (necessarily natural, since the flowers do not tolerate chemistry). If the uniformity of staining is not fundamental, but, on the contrary, you want a kind of bizarre drawing, add the dye after the water was mixed with glycerin and the solution was poured into the container.

Close the craft cover. In this form, it will be kept for at least a month (if inside only herbs and dried flowers - much longer). Then the solution is clown, and it will need to be replaced. To do this, just pour the contents of the container in a bowl, carefully separate the plants from the liquid. Prepare a new solution, fill it, and the flowers can leave the same.

All you probably saw glass balls with slowly falling snow. Just shone the ball (or turn it over) and movement begins inside the ball. Many of you bought such balls as gifts on new Year In the souvenir departments of stores. However, it is not necessary to run over the New Year's gift to the store, you can make it and do it yourself.

How to make a snow ball? And make a snow ball on your own quite simple.

What we need to create a ball with snow (necessary materials):

  • Base for a ball with snow. It can be a purchased special container in the form of a glass bowl, or a small bank with a twisting lid.
  • Decorations, figures, statues of New Year's subjects (to create a bowl inside the ball). If the decorations are metallic, we recommend that you process them before this means to protect against corrosion. Do you want to create imitation of snowy snowdrifts in a ball? For this purpose, you can use a self-step plastic. You can create an original ball and with a photo inside, only before placing a photo into the liquid it must be preliminarily illuminated.
  • Glycerin solution (for smooth drop in snowflakes). It can be bought in a pharmacy.
  • Distilled water (can be used and boiled, after its complete cooling, but better distilled).
  • You can use the food dye by adding the unusualness of your idea.
  • Snowflakes (artificial snow), sequins, asterisks. You can make snow with your own hands. To do this, clean the eggshell from the film and grind it. You can also use a finely chopped rain.
  • Two-component epoxy adhesive (waterproof, transparent), sealant for aquariums or glitter glue

When you find all the necessary components, you can start creating a glass bowl with snow inside.

The process of manufacturing a snowy ball:

  1. First you need to make a composition of the figure so that it is placed on the lid. Then glue the decoration to the lid and dry them.
  2. After the epoxy glue is completely dry, pour distilled water into the can, add the food dye (of any color to your choice).
  3. We mix water and glycerin in equal proportions. But you can pour glycerol a little more. In this case, snowflakes will fall slower.
  4. Then add sparkles, snow, asterisks.
  5. Cover threads with glue and close the jar tightly. Give adhesion to dry.

Your snow ball is ready, shake it and enjoy the magic spectacle.
