Place a pump in the bottom of a snowglobe to circulate the snow, glitter or whatever the particulate is.
As the snowglobe would be powered, adding lights would be no big deal.
The Glitter Rocket
http://www.ubermole.com/shop02.htm Because there had to be something where all these lines of talk -- powered snowglobes, sex toys, self-exciting elves -- naturally intersected. [Monkfish, Dec 20 2001, last modified Oct 21 2004]

One of the objects in the snowglobe scene could be a . . . snowblower. Alternatively the scene could be a ski resort with one of those artificial snow gun thingies. You could have a moving ski lift, too. Since its powered and all. |

and skiers, tumbling around |
|
|
can we have a PPP band in this ski resort? |
|
|
Great idea, can't believe it hasn't been baked. |
|

I have a snow globe that instead of having liquid etc inside
has a small christmas scene with a windmill in it - when
you flick a switch on the bottom the windmill goes round
and 'flusters' (for want of a better word) the snow which
is actually those little balls made of polystyrene! |
|
|
Just place your pre-existing snow dome on a vibrating table (which have various uses in crafts and science). Em, or you could probably do something with sex toys (sorry). |
|
|
[king chay] 'Agitates' might be slightly better. |
|
|
*sigh* I guess it was too good an idea to be unique. And yes, [PeterSealy] - without rising to your barb - I do know how to use a search engine and did look first. Just didn't find anything. |

Yeah, market-driven snow-globe innovation marched on past this kind of thing years ago. |
|
|
It was last seen, in fact, combining the things with sex toys in just the way pottedstu was starting to wonder about. |
|
|
Testing the theory that anything to do with sex that the human imagination can conceive of is already for sale on-line, I asked a search engine: Hey, is it possible to buy any kind of combined vibrator/snow-globe thing over the internet? |
|

See link and note that five shopping days remain. |

Use lava lamp tech, but have clear-in-clear instead of coloured-in-clear oils. This should stir up the "wintry air" enough to keep the snow adrift. Plus, the heat-source-cum-light-source could be a little log cabin, or some other such twee contrivance. I'd certainly buy it (if only as a present for people I don't know very well). |
|
|
And maybe put a little fan in sea shells so we can hear the ocean without having to put the filthy things to our ears? |
|
|
Any charm that a little snow globe might hold comes from when a child turns it over and watches the snow fall. |
|
|
Except for the lights, we already have these in California, but they're all powered by an alternative energy source (Natch!): the San Andreas. |
