You can quickly create wonderful winter landscapes in glass balls, glass bowls, glass vases, mason jars and under glass bells. Today we'll show you a few ideas for Christmas decorations in jars that you can easily copy. These are not only suitable as decoration, but also as sweet last-minute gifts.
First you need a glass jar in which to arrange the small decorations. Such glass balls with an opening are perfect for this as they can also be hung on a wall. You can also use simple glass vases or mason jars, but note that it would be more beautiful if the lid is transparent.
With fairy lights you can instantly create a Christmas atmosphere everywhere. For example, you can put battery-operated LED fairy lights in the glass.
Cover the bottom of the glass ball with salt or fake snow to depict a winter landscape. The glass ball can be hung on the Christmas tree with a green bow.
Tillandsias are rootless plants that are perfect for such terrariums. But make sure that they need daylight. Hang the glass ball near the window.You can find out more about the plants here.
Instead of artificial snow, you can cover the bottom of the ball with earth, gravel and moss. Sprinkle a little activated charcoal over it. This will absorb unpleasant odors.
After you have covered the ground with gravel, soil and moss, start arranging the small figures. For example, a small coniferous tree, elk and deer figures, stacks of wood, gift boxes.
A really cute idea! Chocolate cake crumbs instead of earth, desiccated coconut instead of artificial snow, chopped hazelnuts instead of gravel, gingerbread moose instead of a plastic figure. The candy canes and green branches complete the picture. Also perfect as a gift!

Use tall and large glass jars to hold larger decorations, such as snowflake cookies, Christmas tree cookies and even a whole gingerbread house!
First bake the individual parts of the house and then glue them together using icing. You can cover the roof with almond flakes.
Good idea for last minute decoration! Simply arrange glass balls, Christmas tree figures, battery-operated fairy lights on a red plate and place a glass dome on top.
If you want the decoration to look minimalistic, then this idea is perfect for you. The color palette in this glass is limited to gold and white.
People like to make Christmas tree decorations. Think about old things that you can repurpose in interesting ways. Like this old wine glass, for example.
When arranging the small decorations in the jar, think about the height of individual figures. Taller objects such as Christmas trees should be in the background.
A small mirror at the bottom of the glass vase looks like a frozen lake.
Transparent plastic balls for crafts can be personalized quickly and easily. Red berries and delicate green branches make a good duo.
