Have you ever wondered what you look like as a snowman? With this snow globe template, you just drop in the photos on page one of the PDF and print page two which has the faces converted into snowboys and snowgirls.

A custom photo snow globe can be made in minutes once the photos have been prepared. Using our templates makes the process even faster and easier. If you are making a snow globe as a craft activity for a party, lesson, or event, then make sure to leave some extra time to get creative while decorating the photos.
Step 1 – Take photos (or write a message) and prepare the photo templates.
Take a photo of each person making a custom photo snow globe. After you select your favorite templates, download and open them with Adobe Reader. Follow the instructions in each template and print page 2.
**Remember that the PDF must be printed at 100% scale to get the correct dimensions for the snow globe.**
Step 2 – Cut the photos and decorate
After printing the templates with your photos, cut each image and decorate with crayons, stickers, glitter, etc. If you used template 4, then trace over the letters and decorate.
Step 3 – Insert the photos into the custom snow globe
Remove the bottom of each custom photo snow globe and take out the foam insert. Using a little clear tape (or glue), attach a photo to each side of the foam insert. Finally, insert the foam into the snow globe and replace the bottom. Give it a shake and watch the original winter scene you’ve just created.
