Do not put paper weights or snow globes where the sun can reflect off of them. When sun reflects off the paperweight, they become very hot (like a magnifying glass), and they can become hot enough to start a fire.
I learned this from first hand experience - wish I would have known this sooner.

Ditto with laying eyeglasses down in the sun! Thanks for letting us know it can happen with paperweights or snow globes, too!
