Snowman Fishbowl

Difficulty level:    low

 

Supplies needed:

2 glass fishbowls

Mop and glow floor wax or polyacrylic

Glitter

Paint markers for face or face cut from vinyl

Ribbon for scarf

Snowman hat

Hot glue or e6000 (see options for stacking )

 

 

First glitter the inside of your snowman:

Clean the glass with a small amount of rubbing alcohol. Let dry

Pour a small amount of mop and glow or polyacrylic into your fishbowl and swirl it around. Be sure you coat the entire inside of the bowl.  Pour put any excess. Leave the first one sit while you coat the second bowl. While your second fishbowl is settling add glitter to the first one. Coat the entire inside with glitter then do the same with the other bowl.

if your bowls are 2 sizes be sure the bigger one is on the bottom.

Choose a face design. If you want to create your own face use a paint marker or a paint that is good on glass, multi surface paint, or enamel. Regular acrylic paint is not recommended for glass.  You can also use vinyl stickers.

Add buttons, a scarf, hat and any other embellishments.

If you have 2 options for stacking them.

You can leave them loose which is a good option if you want to add battery operated tea lights to the inside for a glowing effect. This will give your snowman a fun glow and can be used as a nightlight

You can choose to attach the bottom and top together to do this simply add your hot glue or e6000 to the inside rim of the bottom bowl and place to top inside.
