Get the supplies:
- Clear glass terrarium ornament
- Mini tailer ornament*
- Tiny trees
- Mini battery operated light
- Tiny twigs
- Hot glue gun
- Bakers twine
- Poly-fil pellets or salt
*I found these cute trailer ornaments at Walmart in the Christmas section.
Tip: a clear glass ball or small mason jar can be used instead of thee terrarium ornament!
Directions:
- Cut the strings and tags off of the trailer and terrarium ornament.
2. Fill the bottom of the terrarium with clear beads. Place the trailer and trees on top.
3. Use the battery operated light to create a faux fire. Remove the outer cover of the mini light so that only the inner workings and the light remain.
4. Glue twigs around the light using the hot glue gun.
5. Tuck the campfire into the snow in front of the camper.
6. Tie with a loop of bakers twine for hanging.
The lip of the terrarium ornament was a bit low to hold in the amount of snow that I added to the inside so I used hot glue to create an added barrier along the bottom of the opening in the ornament. It worked out perfect!
Super cute right?! I love the lit up campfire! Paired with the little trailer it makes a darling winter camping scene.
Seriously, how cute is this camping snow globe ornament?! I can see this on the Christmas tree or mantel.
