I used two Stampin' Up sweet treat cups for my snow globe. Since this is a discontinued product, we wanted to give you some alternatives. Take out containers for salad dressing or ketchup and the boxes beads come in for diy jewelry. The goal is to find a clear plastic lidded container that is 1 3/4" to 2" around. If you have any ideas of other containers that would work, please leave the ideas in the comment section below. I used a 1 3/4" circle punch and a 3" scallop punch to create the look of a wreath. Once I punched the scallop punch, I put the scallop circle as far into the circle punch as possible and turning the punch over, traced the circle with a pencil to find where it would punch. Make sure your scallop is even on both sides of the circle punch. You could do this with dies as well. Or if you wanted to, you could draw a circle on the back of your paper with a small bowl and then a smaller circle with a measuring cup or a small plastic storage container. Once you have punched out two scallops with a circle missing from their centers, apply wet glue or spray adhesive to your scallops and add glitter (optional step)to them. Once this is dry, rub gently to remove excess glitter and to make sure the rest of your glitter is set. Take a 12" piece of thick thread (embroidery floss or silver or gold thread) knotted at the top, then wrap around the outside of one plastic cup then place the first scallop piece over this with a small amount of wet glue or spray adhesive to ensure it adheres to the other scallop. Place the other scallop around the other cup using the same glue or spray adhesive. I punched out small stars and circles to make ornaments on my wreath and added to both scalloped pieces. I had purchased a set of glittery stickers at the Dollar Tree and used two trees from it to act as the centerpiece of my snow globe when adhered back to back. I added small stars from glitter (shaped confetti works great for this) to decorate them and then glued them to the back of my snow globe. I found Faux Snow at the Dollar Tree and put two tablespoons in with the tree and some bigger chunky glitter as well. Carefully glue both plastic pieces together and your ornament is complete. .
