Animal Jam Perler Beaded Reindeer, Fox and Owl

This is how my Animal Jam perler beads came out:
My daughter loves Animal Jam so when I found the pattern for these on their blog I had to make them.

DIY Snow Globes

I found this great DIY snow-globes instructions here that I copied.

Materials needed:
Epoxy - I used Gorilla Glue
Glass jars with lids - I re-used salsa and sauce jars
Glitter
Glycerin 
Figurines
 


For the first step epoxy the figurine down on the lid. I specifically didn't center Mickey because of the view I wanted for the completed look. Let that dry.

Next add 1-2 tablespoons of glitter to the empty jar. I did a mix of small and big glitter. Then fill with water and add only a drop of glycerin.

Afterwards screw on the lid. The jars didn't leak but I still hot glued the surrounding edge just in case. I topped the lids with fabric so you couldn't tell which salsa jar was which. 

They turned out really cute!
I can't find the finished photos but they exist and turned out great.
