Easy Mini Winter Scene in a Cloche
I think I have an obsession with all things mini and pretty things inside glass cloches. For example, I recently made these DIY Snow Globe Ornaments and these Mini Winter Forest in Vintage Tea Cups. I also made a few centerpieces like my Easy Gold, Black, and White Pumpkins DIY and for a bridal shower I made these Mad Hatter Tea Party Centerpieces & Ideas. Today for Craft Lightning, I wanted to share a simple fifteen minute Easy Mini Winter Scene in a Cloche for your Christmas decorations.
Here’s what I used:
- Mini Trees
- Mini Clock
- Unfinished Wooden Bench
- Paint Brush
- Black Craft Paint
- Printed Scrapbook Paper
- Scissors
- Fake snow
First I painted the little bench. I used what I had and painted it black. You can also stain it a darker wood tone as well (I had some stain but it dried out! Whoops!).
I found some scrapbook paper that I had that looked like newspaper. I cut out a small rectangle and then folded and rolled it to look like a mini newspaper to lay on top of the park bench.
Desn’t it look cute? I thought it was a nice extra touch.
I put some fake snow on the base of my stand and made the little arrangements with three sparkling green mono trees I got last year to use for my winter forest display.
Here it is! Super easy and took minutes. I realized the clock isn’t to the exact scale, but I thought it still looked cute. It was on sale anyway!

Thanks for having me again, Angie! I love participating in Craft Lightening!
I love the little newspaper detail, but the entire thing is SO CUTE!
Thank you, Sarah! I have no idea how I remembered that I had that piece of scrapbook paper! Ha!
That is so cute. You can even change out the news paper for a Santa hat to add a bit more of color.
Thank you! I love the idea of a Santa hat. I could make a little one out of felt…hmmmm.
this is soo good! im looking to make one for my friends grave for christmas but im really struggling to find a cloche, where did you get yours? and was it expensive? thanks!

Thank you! What a great idea. A friend actually made this one for me out of a thrift store pillar candle holder, a wood slice (from the craft store), and the cloche was a thrift store find! You can always try a large apothecary jar. You can buy them at Micheal’s Craft Stores and use your 4-% or 50% coupon. Hope this helps!
