 Materials:

— Cotton Balls

— Small twigs, pine cone, pine needles, etc.

— White Glitter

Directions:

  1.  Begin by painting your tiny twigs and pine cones white. Sprinkle generously with white glitter before the paint dries.
  2. Find a small plastic toy or trinket and paint it in a fun way. We used gold paint on a tiny dinosaur toy.
  3. Once the paint dries, glue cotton balls to the inside of the jar lid and glue on the twig, pine cones and trinket with hot glue.
  4. Add glitter to the inside of the empty jar and screw the lid on.
  5. Enjoy your winter scene!
