Then, in a separate container, mix 1 cup water with 1 teaspoon white acrylic paint; stir to mix.
Now pour the diluted paint into the snow globe. You will want to go very close to the top, within 1-2 mm. You will have leftover diluted paint; discard
HINTS: The reason it is important to get so close to the top is to minimize the air pocket at the top when finished. Also, make sure you stir diluted paint carefully as any non-diluted paint will cause the snowstorm to “paint the sides white” and not look very pretty.

Carefully, insert the snowman that is affixed to your lid into the baby oil solution. Ensure the lid is completely screwed on.
