Ice Marbles are so much fun for snow days! Simply take a balloon add a few drops off food coloring then and fill it with water. Tie the balloon and place outside. Once it is frozen solid cut the balloon off and it looks like a giant marble! They make a great decoration for Christmas and New Year Eve parties too! (You can also try this in your freezer if you live where it doesn’t snow).

If you want to make a ice votive don’t allow the balloon to freeze solid. Instead remove the balloon and then pour the water out of the center and now you have a gorgeous ice votive instead! You can place a votive candle inside and light and it would be a gorgeous outdoor decoration!
