This isn't just an ordinary snow globe; it's a real show - stopper! The custom - made container is tough, crystal - clear, and round. It comes with a large, flat screw - on top and a press - fit rubber stopper. The stopper forms a great seal and is hollow, allowing you to insert electronics inside. It's ideal for creating your own electronic - powered snow globe. The inner diameter of the stopper is about 60mm and it's around 13.5mm deep, offering plenty of space for your cool stuff. This size is a perfect fit for a Circuit Playground Express or Circuit Playground Classic with a 500 mAh lipo battery. If you're not afraid of soldering, you can also use a 16 NeoPixel Ring with your favorite small microcontroller board. You can go simple and just add some wire lights. And since it's easy to take apart, you can try all these options! Check out our many electronic snow globe guides. You'll need water, glitter or other snow - like materials, glycerine to slow the water, something cool to display inside, and E6000 glue to seal the stopper permanently. These items aren't included but can be bought at your local art supply, crafting, or hardware store.
Using this DIY snow globe kit is super easy. First, gather the items you need: water, glitter or other snow - like materials, glycerine, something cool to show off inside, and E6000 glue. These items are not in the kit, so pick them up at your local art, crafting, or hardware store. Then, open the screw - on top of the container and place your chosen display item inside. Next, pour in some water and add glycerine to slow down the flow. Add glitter or other snow - like materials to create the snow effect. Now, it's time to work with the stopper. If you want to add electronics, place them inside the hollow part of the stopper. Then, press - fit the stopper onto the container to make a seal. If you want a permanent seal, use the E6000 glue. Remember, this kit is easy to disassemble, so you can try different combinations of electronics or decorations. When it comes to maintenance, keep it away from sharp objects that could scratch the container. If it gets dirty, you can gently wipe it with a soft cloth. Don't expose it to extreme temperatures as it might affect the materials inside.
