How many years do snow globes last?
Usually, if a snow globe is produced completely free of any (even tiny) air bubbles, it will stay that way for many years, as long as it’s not displayed in direct sunlight or consistently high temperatures.
What is best for snow globes?
For best results, choose a jar with a rubber seal on the inside (such as one used for jam-making) as this is most likely to be watertight.
You can use any household jar, but you may wish to check for leaks before you start.
