Abstract: A spherical bottle has a pump spray atomizer connected at a neck opening and a thin plastic sheet with printing or a graphic inside the bottle. The bottle contains a liquid fragrance or body splash which can be atomized. Flakes or chips resembling falling snow are dispersed within the bottle. The chips are large enough so that they do not fit into the spray pump mechanism. A ceramic base receives the spray atomizer so that the bottle can stand on the base with the spray atomizer down when it is stored. When stored on the base, the bottle has the appearance of a snow globe and can be used decoratively.
Abstract: A process for making a clear plastic consumer product having an even distribution of glitter particles throughout its volume, start by forming a dry mixture of particles of the plastic and the glitter particles. The glitter particles are uniformly mixed with the particles of plastic in the mixture. The mixture is supplied to a hopper of an injection molding machine and then passed from the hopper to a heated cylinder of the injection molding machine to heat and melt the mixture to form an injectable mass. The injectable mass is injected into a mold cavity having the shape of the consumer product and allowed to cool and harden into the consumer product in the mold cavity. The process ended by opening the mold cavity to remove the consumer product from the mold cavity.
