There's been some discussion of that here but I don't remember what was suggested. I have read of expanding insulation foam being used, and here's a google result for that:

I also found suggestion of Elmer's Glue, might be a little easier to just paint the insides with that.

Good luck with it!

Ed Moore used Kryon Triple Thick ...........

...Crystal Glaze when I took a class on ornament making with him years ago. It's available at Walmart and many hobby shops.

Kryon Triple Thick is the product THANKS!

After someone at a club meeting picked up one of mine and crushed it, someone told me they always filled the inside with foam. I now use the Window and Door type which gently expands. I spray the outside with acrylic from a rattle can, as I was taught by ??? (shoot, can't remember now). I usually use a satin spray.

Use Mod Podge, give the interior coating or 2.
