5" Globe

Perfect for diy snow globes. It came in perfect shape, no dents and a great size. I love that it’s plastic so it won’t shatter. Little bit pricey but I would definitely buy it again.

This is just what I needed. One of my ceramic students wants to handbuild a replica of a gumball machine, but needed a clear sphere that was big enough for clay balls to go in, and also had the opening with the threads, so she could build a lid for the top. We will glue the sphere to the base after it has been fired. The thick plastic seems sturdy.

Great size having a craft day with grandkids ages 4-2 building them for their mom and dad.

Item is nice. Exactly what I was looking for, except the outer cap for mine doesn't screw on correctly and caused it to leak but otherwise nice item.

This was my first experience working with a snow globe, so I am not a connoisseur. But it works well and I have no complaints. The plastic is crystal clear. There is a bit of plastic at the North Pole left over from the molding process. The thickness of the plastic is not consistent, but it is not visible and does not cause me any issues. But a 3-inch diameter circle, centered on the North Pole, is significantly thicker and does not depress under moderate thumb pressure. But a 3-inch wide band centered around the equator is as pliable as a shampoo bottle. Again, this does not cause me any issue for what I am doing. I would not hesitate to purchase this again for the same purpose. But if my project involved cutting the globe for other purposes, it is important to keep this in mind.

This was great to make a snow globe with my daughter. The only thing is it did leak just a tad but I hot glued the seal afterward before screwing the final top on and that did the trick! I would definitely get more and just do this extra step for peace of mind. Some diy videos I found did and didn’t glue the seal, which is why I tried our snow globe without glue but was cautious to check for leaking afterward. The globe part is very thick and has held up against my 8 year old’s frantic shaking!!

Love this product although it was bigger than expected

I think the base is too narrow. It looks like an oddly shaped lightbulb. Don’t square the round part too hard because it gets dented. I made this snow globe for my son. I used sandpaper to sand down the base and figurines, E6000 glue to glue the snowman and tree, distilled water, two tablespoons of vegetable glycerin, clear glitter, and silver glitter, silicone sealant to seal it, and thread seal tape to seal it even more. After having yo purchase all of those things mentioned above, I realized I could have bought a snow globe from the Disney Store for almost the same price.

The instruction sheet, such as it is is pretty useless, using code numbered products to do the job. The plastic stopper didn't stick properly to my ornament, it fell off inside the globe, the glue had not adhered to the plug despite roughing it up as suggested. Next problem, the stopper was very reluctant to go into the globe because as I pushed it in, the air pressure inside the globe kept pushing it back out again; this happened repeatedly until my ornament fell off inside the globe, leaving me a horrible mess to clean up. Regret buying this especially with it being very expensive too. I should have bought one of those photo snow globes, it would have done a reasonable job without all the faff and mess and a lot cheaper. I'm going to have to redesign how this globe goes together and use other techniques for assembly so you can actually assemble it and it remains intact and doesn't leak.
