Fake Snow for Snow Globes?

Does anyone know what I could use for fake snow on glass Christmas balls? I need it to be permanent and frugal as I'm making several dozen. I'll post a pic when I'm done with them, IF I get done LOL. Please help!

You could also spray each Christmas ball with spray glue adhesive and roll each around in a dish of rock salt ( one box can be purchased for $1.20)

Could you use packing peanuts or other styrofoam cut into little bits? Depending on what liquid your globes are filled with, they should float.

When I posted my suggestion about packing peanuts, the heading of the request said snow globes, hence the suggestion about floating the bits. You could still crumble/cut up the foam and dip your ornaments in them after putting glue on the glass balls.

Crafts stores sell fake snow in a jar it has a frosting consistancy. you spread it on as thick or thin as you want and you can smooth it out or leave it a little bumpy.

it air dries hard It isn't that expensive I have used it with my Girl Scout troop. and a small jar can go a long way.

I read somewhere that you could use spray adhesive and then sprinkle sugar on, don't know how permanent that would be.

Rock salt - like when you make ice cream in a churn.
