From the title alone, you are probably wondering "Why?" So, I probably should explain myself...
A while back I found myself visiting the hospital on a semi-regular basis. As I would sit in the hospital staring at the wall in boredom and waiting for the doctor to come back, I got to thinking about how I could share the joy of my trips with my friends and family. Normally, when you go somewhere, you bring back souvenirs like T-shirts... or key chains... or coffee mugs... or my personal favorite - the pinnacle of uselessness and oddity - the snow globe.
When this notion crossed my mind, it became painfully obvious to me that it would be ideal if I could bring back a snow globe for my loved ones as a keepsake from my hospital trip. But what would a snow globe from a hospital look like? Well, it would need to have a medical scene inside - that is for certain. It would obviously need snow. It would need to be in some sort of globe and - at that - what sort of globe is there to be found in a hospital? Well, urine collection cups, of course. and, if you are already going that far, you might as well go all the way and fill it with urine. Hence, the idea for a urine snow globe was born.
Although, fortunately, I go to the hospital far less these days, the idea of making a medical-themed urine snow globe has stuck in the back of my mind. I knew that sooner or later this had to be made simply to get it out my system. And so, I finally got around to making this. I see this as a great way for people to commemorate any notable illness (physical or mental).

THIS IS SOOOOO TWSTED!
When he found his way back, he went to the doctor. They stitched him up and it was like...nothing. They said it was perfectly fine.
Or mayby do it yourself... (will someone post an instructable how to do it?)
And: no pun indeed... really... ;-p
GREAT instructable!!!
Who would have thought...
Question: are you using a lightbox? It must be pretty big for you to be able to stand in/front of it, no?
My mother used to say to me, "what will the neighbors think?" Now I say to you, what will other countries think? haha!
