Ole Skool Bowl

Did You Know?
In a few simple steps, you can turn an old vinyl record into a funky serving dish.

Materials
1 Vinyl Record
1 Oven proof Bowl
Oven Mitts

Instructions
Begin by placing the bowl upside down (so the bottom of the bowl is facing upwards onto an oven tray.

Balance the record on top of the bowl and place it into a preheated oven at 100'C or 210'F for around 5 minutes. In this time it will become soft and start to droop.

Place the oven mitts on and working quickly remove the bowl and the record from the oven. Turn the bowl the right way up and push the record into the bowl to shape it into the same shape as the bowl.

You will only have around 30 seconds to work so work quickly, if you are too slow or dont like the shape of your bowl then place it back into the oven and start again.

Allow it to cool and its ready to use.
