To Make a Halloween Eyeball Snow Globe You Will Need:
Distilled Water
Clear food jar
Glycerin
Plastic Eyeballs
Glitter (optional)
Epoxy glue
The first step s to clean out an old food jar and the lid. I personally think an old pickle jar is best! Mayonnaise jars also work well.
Now, throw about three plastic eyeballs into the jar. You can of course put as many eyeballs as you want, but be sure to leave room for them to move.
Now, fill the jar wit the water. You need to use distilled water for this.
Now, add one to two drops of glycerin to your water.
Finally, you can add some glitter if you want. I think it is cool to buy some fake eye lashes and cut the off and drop them into the jar with the eyeballs. Black glitter or red glitter would also be great!
Now, run a small bead of clear epoxy glue around the lid of the jar and screw the lid into place.
Let the epoxy glue dry completely.
While the glue is drying you can work on a label for the Halloween eyeball snow globe. Try cut out a label from a brown paper grocery bag. Crumple is in your hand until it looks old.
You can burn the edges of the label with a lighter to age it further.
Now, write something on the label. You decided! "Witch's Eyes!" is great. "XXX" is also a great option!
Use some white glue or the epoxy glue to adhere the scary label to the jar!
This is a fun craft and so easy to make for Halloween. Be sure to use plastic eyeballs so they do not rot over time in the water!
Other fun options for this Halloween snow globe craft would be plastic bats. You can often find these at the craft store. For a fun twist try small plastic pumpkins. These also are very easy to find around Halloween.
These simple little Halloween snow globes also make great party favors or a craft for kids to make at a Halloween party! Just save those food jars for a few months and you will have plenty to go around. Kids can also bring their own empty food jars!
