When I first saw the idea of a DIY fish bowl snowman, I knew it was something I had to try.
Not only does it make a unique holiday decoration, but it also allows you to express creativity in such a delightful way. So, I rolled up my sleeves, gathered my supplies, and got to work.
Now, I want to share every detail of my experience so you can easily recreate this magical snowman at home.
You need to prepare:
I started with the largest fish bowl. After filling it with about two inches of fine snow, I arranged my decorations.
Three mini trees stood at the back, with two sleds in front. I added a few candy cane sticks and scattered chunky snow over the surface for depth.
For the middle bowl, I wanted a cheerful village scene. First, I filled it with about an inch of snow, then placed a tiny house in the center. I added Santa and a signpost next to it, creating a charming centerpiece.
The LED lights under the snow gave the house a warm glow, making it feel like a storybook Christmas village.
The smallest bowl became the snowman’s head. I kept it simple, a white ceramic house surrounded by fluffy snow.
In addition, a battery-powered tea light inside the house added a welcoming glow.
When stacking the bowls, I made sure everything was aligned perfectly.
You just use a small amount of hot glue between the bowls gave the snowman extra stability without making it permanent.
Finally, you cut a 6-inch diameter circle from black foam for the brim and use another sheet to form a 5-inch tall cylinder.
After securing the pieces with hot glue, wrap the base of the cylinder with the plaid ribbon. The hat fit snugly on the top bowl, completing the snowman’s look.
Once finished, I placed the snowman on a sturdy tray and set it on my entryway table. It instantly became a conversation piece. With the LED lights on in the evening, it brought a warm, magical glow to the room.
