I just love these Mason Jar Snow Globes. They are absolutely adorable and make such a great gift!
What is it about mason jars that just add so much charm to pretty much any occasion? I use them as vases, make overnight oats and salads in them, serve beverages in them, and store things in them.
So, of course, when it comes to the holidays, I love to make use of mason (and other) jars then too! That’s why I just love these Mason Jar Snow Globes so much.
These make fantastic gifts – perfect for a unique take on hostess gifts, neighbor and co-worker gifts, teacher gifts, and more. Fill them with whatever you’d like.

These are so cute! I had seen a similar idea using the small village people from Dollar Tree, but when I went to get them, they were all gone. I never thought of using miniature ornaments! Thanks for the idea!

Those are so cute and such a good idea! Where did you purchase the ornaments at? I got mine at Dollar tree and I had a really hard time cutting them in half.
Cyn Gagen says
I got them at a Canadian dollar store – Dollarama – a while back. I have also used the ones that open into two halves so then there’s no cutting needed. I ordered them online but have seen them at Michaels from time to time too.
