Hey there! Merry Christmas eve! You probably have a million and a half things to do, but just in case you don’t, here’s an idea that is so flippin adorable you’ll definitely need to run out this very minute and find everything you need to make one yourself.
Here’s your list:
- One broken snow globe
- One abandoned gumball machine
- White paint
- Fake snow
- Childlike sense of whimsy
All set? Great.
Step one: Gut the gumball machine.
Step two: Gut the snowglobe.
Now put them together and what have you got? A snowglobe filled with gumballs!
No, no, sorry. Do the opposite of that.
A gumball machine filled with a cozy snowglobe scene! Isn’t it the cutest?
And what’s even better is that you could leave it out all winter long, even after Christmas decorations are put away. Unless you put like a Santa scene in there or something. (You could leave that out anyway, just to remind everyone how clever you are).
Get all the details from Shanna at Restoration Redoux.
