Paper Snow Globe Ornament - hand holding the paper snow globe decoration Here is a mess free snow globe ornament you can make, it is a paper version. This ornament is made with construction paper and acrylic paint.

This is my trial run and I loved how it turned out. I will be cutting out two sets for my kids to each decorate as an activity for their Christmas tree.

Total Time: 20 minutes

Supplies:

assorted construction paper
acrylic paint + paintbrush
scissors
glue stick
tape
pipe cleaner (or ribbon)

Steps:

Using construction paper, freehand and cut out the shapes you'll need. You'll need a globe and globe stand shape.

I created a loop and taped a pipe cleaner on the back of the globe, but you can use ribbon (or any other hanging method you'd like).
