This invention is a snow globe with enhanced viewing pleasure due to a significantly extended snowfall effect. The extended snowfall is achieved with the use of "snow reservoirs" at both the top and bottom of the snow globe. The simulated snow floats down out of the top reservoir at a restricted rate through holes into the viewed area of the snow globe and then into the snow reservoir at the bottom. After all the snow has settled into the bottom snow reservoir the snow globe can be turned horizontally 180 degrees to instantly begin the simulated snowfall again. The figure or scene in the viewed area is designed to always rotate into the upright position within the viewed area no matter what angle or position the snow globe is in.
