    Paula ... at first I thought these were decorative plates on plate stands ... and they look great - good variety of fabrics, etc.

    To me, the "snow globes" don't have a full-globe-design ... Isn't there usually water at the upper 1/4 or 1/8th in the globe? .... with some glitter/snow around the bottom of the globe if it has not been shaken?

    Maybe you could experiment ...not sure how ... to get that effect? .....maybe embroider a grey line around the circle of the globe so "water" would show above your fabric in each globe? ..... and maybe put some fabric glitter - or use snow-white fabric paint that you just spritz on a little from a used toothbrush or such??

    Just a suggestion ... It may be a little difficult to do on THIS one, as it has white background ....

    What you have is pretty cool the way it is...
