Instructions in 5 steps Die ausgerollte Modelliermasse wickelst du um einen Luftballon, damit deine Schale die passende Form bekommt. Wenn die Schale getrocknet ist, bringst du silberne Deco-Metall-Flocken auf.

Besides the articles listed below, you also need: Wellholz/Nudelholz, Luftballon, Standbehälter (z.B. Blumentopf), Frischhaltefolie, etwas Wasser

And this is how it works:

Step 1

For the preparation, you need a balloon inflated to the desired size and a support stand (e.g. flower pot) for the balloon.

Step 2

Roll the air-drying modelling compound with granite sand look about 3mm thick out, at best in a cling film by means of a craft rolling pin.

Step 3

Lay the rolled-out modelling compound flat on the balloon and model it further with fingers and some water.

Step 4

Let it dry out for about 1 day (the drying time is dependent upon the weather conditions).

Step 5

Then, take carefully the balloon out or release the air with a little prick and remove it. After one more day of drying process, the bowl can be painted and decorated as desired.

Tip: the bowl looks particularly classy with an inner coating out of deco-metal. Therefore, apply the leaf adhesive onto desired surface by means of a brush, let it dry out and put then the deco-metal flakes on. Push them with a soft brush and wipe carefully the excess rest off. Finally, if desired, coat it with a protective varnish.
