Snow Globes and more Snow Globes

As a child, I was always fascinated with  watery, winter scene captured in a snow globe.  As an adult, my attraction to them hasn't lessened any.  As a crafter, I'm always looking for different ways to interpret them using simple crafting materials and techniques.  My favorite thus far is the recent popular "dry" snow globes like the one I made pictured below.
I used a clear acrylic ornament, cut a tiny paper house and evergreen tree.  Glued the two inside and then filled the orb with sparkly snow.  Decorated the ornament cap with a pine cone, berries and greenery.  Tied on a Christmas red ribbon to use as a hanger, and wah-lah.  A snow globe to hand on the tree.
