Snow dome kit

I received a snow globe kit two Christmases ago and haven't been able to make up my mind on what to put in the dome. 
Here are some highlights:

"Create Your Own Sparkling 3D Wonderland"

"Contents:
  • 2 transparent ball domes
  • 2 dome bases
  • 2 rubber rings
  • 1 pack snow piece
  • 3 pack glitters
  • 6 shaped cutting tools
  • 5 colours modeling clay
  • 1 pack of salt
  • Easy-to-follow instructions"

"CAUTION! For children over 4 years of age only"

It had me at CAUTION.

As there are 2 snow globes, I decided that I'd make WALL-E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter - Earth Class) and EVE (Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator); they're such a cute couple :)

I found the instructions to be quite wordy and confusing. I was also very disappointed to find that the colours I had differed from those pictured on the box. A 4 year old might not have noticed nor cared but I certainly did. Boo.

I had 2 shades of yellow, red, green and black. 

And so Stewie Griffin came to the rescue...in green shoes.

So what shall I make next? I'm thinking it should be something cool for Stewie to swear at.

Stewie: Damn you, vile woman!
