I’m back with another Southern Blue birthday party DIY. This one is SUPER simple and quick. So quick and simple, in fact, that you will want to make a ton of them.
These are bowls made from old vinyl records! I mean, how cool is it to have your pretzels in a Blue Brother’s record?
The most difficult part of this project is finding the records. I scouted out Goodwills and Salvation Army and found some cool records for well under $2/record. So cool, in fact, that Ryan confiscated most of them and told me I couldn’t craft with them.
But this Blues Brother’s record was deemed appropriate to make into a bowl. So, I followed the steps outlined at Stars for Streetlights.
Simply put the record on top of an oven-safe bowl and put in a preheated (350 degree) oven.
Just leave it in there a few minutes until the record softens. When you remove it from the oven, push the soft record towards the bottom of the bowl and it will take on the bowl shape.
Once it dries, you’re good to go.
In addition to party snacks, I think these would be fun for a desk or even for a little succulent potted plant (the middle hole in the record would provide you with drainage).
This project really rocks, right?
