True snow globes are made of glass, a plug that fits into the opening in the glass, liquid, interior design, glitter or "snow" and a base. (There are also plastic snow domes, but that's a little different.)
The interior design must be created so that it is small enough to fit into the opening of the globe and not too tall to be distorted by the liquid and glass shape. The small sculpture has to be safe in liquid, and if painted, the paint must be treated so that it will not "bleed' dye into the liquid over time.
The sculpture or design is glued to the rubber plug and allowed to dry. The globe is placed upside down (hole facing up) and partially filled with liquid. Glitter or "snow bits" are dropped into the liquid. When the sculpture has completedly dried on the plug, ease the sculpture into the liquid, and slowly push the plug into place, displacing liquid slowly. If the liquid doesn't drip over the side, you don't have enough liquid and a bubble will develop. When the plug is pushed into place, turn the globe right side up and place into the base. The base must have an indent to hold the plug. This is usually glued into place. Allow to dry and cure, then shake.
