    Wrap around your bowl. It doesn’t have to be completely smooth, bumps and wrinkles dry into nice texture.

    Overlap multiple layers (the more the thicker the final bowl).

    After a couple days, crack off the foam bowl. The inside might be still a little wet depending on how much glue you used, let that dry for a day or so more. Pretty and easy (although very messy!)

    Note: This bowl should be wiped down but not washed. A good bowl for jewelry or your keys.
