Equipment

  • Rubbing Alcohol (for cleaning)
  • Scissors

Materials

  • 1 round bowl or candle holder base
  • 2 bowls or 1 round bowl for middle
  • 1 small bowl or candle holder head
  • 1 Dollar Tree Sock Hat/Scarf
  • E6000 Glue

Instructions

  • Prep: Clean all glass surfaces with rubbing alcohol to remove dust and grease.
  • Create the Middle: Glue the two glass bowls together rim-to-rim. Let dry. This sphere creates the snowman’s body.
  • Create the Base: Glue one candle holder upside down to your work surface (or a base plate). Apply glue to the top (the bottom of the holder).
  • Assemble Body: Place the glass sphere onto the candle holder base.
  • Add the Head: Glue the second candle holder upside down on top of the sphere.
  • Dress Him Up: Cut the toe off a sock to make a beanie hat for the top candle holder, and use a strip of the sock as a scarf to hide the neck seam.
  • Light It Up: Place a tealight nearby or underneath to make the glass sparkle like crystal!
