Baby Water Globes

Let me start by saying, I'm not entirely sure *what* to call these.  Tiny items floating in water within a glued up water bottle?  Nah, too long.  Whatever they should be called, they're easy to make and entertains the little one.

I found the idea on Pinterest, naturally.  I used:


  • two teeny water bottles
  • party confetti from HEB
  • Spritz rubber balls from Target
  • The One Spot acorns from Target
  • Spritz rubber bracelets from Target
  • Spritz beaded necklaces from Target
  • Super Glue
  • scissors
All of the Target party favors were $1 or so.  Super cheap!  Cause I'm all about the cheap.  All of the Spritz items came from the party favor section, and the acorns were in the seasonal $1 bins up front.

I cut up the bracelets into three pieces and the necklaces into 1, 2 and 3 bead sections.  Then the boys put all of those little pieces into the water bottles.  When they were done, I filled up the bottles with water.  After that, I applied the Super Glue to the inside of the bottle cap and put that on.  Ten seconds later, we were done!  Shake it up baby!
