How to Make a Glass Snow Scene in a Jar

I created these adorable little snow scenes reminiscent of a water filled snow globe.

I bought jars at Michael's craft store that were clear with flat clear tops. 

I flipped the jar over and glued the top of the jar (which is going to be the bottom of this pedestal) to a glass candlestick with E6000 glue. 

The glass candlesticks came from Dollar Tree and are $1 each... a bargain!

I then filled the base with my favorite winter animals, trees, and epsom salt or cotton batting for snow.

I used the E6000 to glue the bottom of the jar (which is now the top) to the base so it can't be opened.

On the top of the snow globe I added an old brass knob with E6000.

I used various shapes and sizes of glass candlesticks that gave these pedestals different heights. 

Finally I tied a Christmas bow around the base of each pedestal.
