Snow globes and dry globes

Most of our snow globes have come from yard sales. A few have been gifts. Over time the water in some of them has been slowly evaporating. In one globe, the water discolored. In the past few years, dry globes have become popular. Because they are dry, the shapes are also changing-many have tear drop shapes.Most of them are also music boxes.


Dollar store miniature snow globes purchased in 2018



Carole calls this her "hovering angel" globe

This and the one below are the same "snow globe". It is a dry snow globe that changes colors. Bought at K Mart this year.


Dry snow globe in a lantern. Lights up and a small motor circulates the snow.


Non traditional snow globe since it is incorporated in the overall scene.. This is one of our heaviest nativities.

Our only plastic snow globe

 The tiny snow globe on the side makes this another non-traditional snow globe





San Francisco Music Box Company snow globe. Found in a yard sale



The following tear drop globes are not true snow globes because they are dry.
