Gibbs 12 days of Christmas - day 5



On the fifth day of Christmas I made Renee a polar bear snowglobe with dangling jingle bells.

I saw a similar craft item in Michael's with a snowman and could not resist putting these two playful polar bears in the snow.  The polar bears are actually ornaments ( I just cut the gold strings off) and tied a ribbon around there necks.  I used some epoxy to glue the polar bears down into the apothecary jar.  The snow that theyare playing in is actually styrofoam that I grated.  I tied a ribbon around the top (to hide the glue that seals the jar closed) and the bottom.  There are three red jingle bells dangling from the bow.

  3. You and I think alike!!! I bought these same ornaments at Michaels but for a different paper craft project. I'll be posting it this coming Wednesday on my blog. Hope you come see. I LOVE what you created here. What a beautiful heirloom you have made. I love the jar and how clever to grate Styrofoam! So creative. Great job on this! Best, Curt
