Penni Jo, of Best Flexible Molds, has a cute bowl project.
Creating a coil bowl using scrap fabric is a great way to upcycle old materials and give them new life. In this project, we take it a step further by using a glass bowl as a slump mold and adding some precious little molded goldfish to make it a unique and charming piece. The resulting bowl can be used as a catch-all for keys, jewelry, or other small items or given as a thoughtful gift to a friend or loved one.
The watery coloured scraps and goldfish combination creates a serene and calming effect, but the possibilities for customization are endless. For a more vibrant look, you could use brightly coloured scraps and add molded flowers or birds for a nature-inspired theme. Or, for a whimsical touch, you could use scraps with playful patterns and add molded animals or cartoon characters.
Don’t be afraid to get creative with your scraps and mold decorations. The options are limitless, and you can customize your bowl to fit any style or occasion. The beauty of this project is that you can use materials that you already have on hand, making it a cost-effective and environmentally friendly craft.
