cool bowls

Because we're moving soon, my parents are trying to get rid of stuff. Thus they have been throwing out old records which I have been rescuing, and this is one of the things I'm going to do with them!
Enjoy.

VINYL RECORD BOWLS

Adults need to supervise in making this craft.

Preheat oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit

You will need:
Vinyl records (as many as you want to make)
Oven safe bowls
Directions:
Place one vinyl record over an inverted oven safe bowl and cook for about 5 minutes at 200 degrees Fahrenheit, or until the record starts to drape the sides of the bowl.
Remove from oven and flip the gooey record into the bottom of another bowl, making sure the record label sits flat in the bottom of the bowl. Press the record against the sides of the cool bowl until it is smooth. You may want to use a small glass jar to smooth it out.
The record will start to cool almost immediately, so work fast. Tailor the bowls to the musical taste of your recipient. They're great for snacks, candy, coins or pocket debris or any other kind of item you might put things in.
