Vinyl Record Bowl

could you use those things that you make taco shells in? I think that they are called perfect tortilla?

I saw this bowl for sale at a second hand shop

on monday its memorial day so people in usa most goodwills (second hand store) will have the entire4 store half off sooo... dirt cheap vinyl records!!! im geting two. yaaaaay cant wait to ad my version

this is so cute! I'd never use my vinyl though. Only stuff that's scratched or that's folk music :L

i made some of these! there awesome!!!

When I found this project I made at least 15 of these! I went crazy! I love this project its so easy but ver effective!

Cool y have some transparent vinyl, i will try this!!! ñ__________ñ*

I'm going to make one of these today, for a couple we're visiting with the boyfriend, and one for the said boy as a christmas present! ^^

very nice(L)

can we use the cds which we use now??

can we use the cds which we use now??

I saw a clear red and a clear blue vinyl today at the local thrift, I'm DYING to snatch them up and make these!

oh my gosh! 50 versions?!?!? wo!=]

I made my first today with my mom.
I love the way it looks and will use it coming sunday when I celabrate my birthday :-D

Wow thats amazing! I made 2, and discovered if you melt it over the can, then you can make a tall candle holder!

these are super easy and make awesome gifts I've made about 5 so far

This looks so neat, I have to try it soon. ^^

thats a how to on howcast..coooooolio.

so... is the can empty?
and how much are records from second hand shops, roughly?
Great project!
I love it!
xx

i just did this with a mini record and it worked awesome. i have some difficulties but all was good. now i have a nice little place for my bracelets.

does this work with the small records too?

Is it hot to the touch? Do you have to wear gloves while you mold it to the shape you want?

This is such a great idea!! I LOVE IT!

oooh!
i just made one
it's soo cool! x

woww!
these are amazing! making them now! x

is anyone else feeling bad about melting a record? lol....guess i should just get over it and find a crappy record i don't care about and use it. i can't bare to take one from my own collection for sappy sentimental reasons. but these are freakin cute. so as soon as i make it back up to great escape(likely this weekend) i'm gonna make one, too...just gotta find a record i don't feel bad about melting.

This is great, I think I have a scratched Abba record upstairs so will try it on that.

im so mad i made like 10 of these while back and someone threw them out before i got the chance to use them but i deff will do this again i like how you use it for store or beaded jewelry awesome

I'm going to try this and use it for an ashtray. Very cool.

Wow! I love this project! I have a few old records lying around. Going to try this right now!

This is megaawesomeee. I was wondering what to do with those 80p records I got at my local garage sale. Thaaaanks! x

wow.this is awesome
i just made one and now it is home to my plastic junk
=)
thankyou

<3 Moshical <3

that is amazing i am so doing this! try and stop me!!! ^^

That's awesome idea! I love records... though I couldn't possibly do this to my mums record collection. op shop here I come!
*stocks up on Kamal records* lol

Done! I made two of these today! I got some cheap records at the 2nd-hand/charity store.
Even my mum thought it turned out cool

I'm definitely going to give one to my friend on her 18th birthday

So I got a whoosh of inspiration and made my own. I think you know what records you don't touch like Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, and because my mum would have put me in the oven if I'd melted that! I was so hot while making my version and I was scared I'd break the oven or something would catch fire or I'd bake my own hand haha

x

is this a cut out and keep record? LOL get it RECORD!? 122 favs and 11 versions!?

x

I think I will make one for my friends birthday!

very cool I'm going to have to try that.

This was the first craft I made and i really enjoyed it! although when i had the beans in the oven i was slightly apprehensive that they would blow up haha

Awesome project and so easy, i have these cool bowls populating my house now

instead of using an oven, you can heat water in a large pot/pan over the stove, put the record in it , taking out after a few minutes (depending on heat)
and then mold it how-ever you like =)

i cant tell you how cool that is - i just made one!

that is very very cool and youre so lucky to have so may people make your creation! one quessie - does any bowls or cans or ovens get wrecked in any way during the process?

SWEET!!!

This a great idea for all my scratched records...and I have alot of them...still have a record player too how sad...can't wait to try it though

Who knew that melting vinyl in the oven rocks! I love these. I spent 7$ at the local junk store and now I have gifts for all!

this is aceeee me mum just went mad cos i wanted to melt her records... oh well ive done it now ^_^

Haha that's cool!

ive been wanting to do this for ages, and i heard you could do it with hot water, but i thought it would be a bit dangerous, so this way is ideal for my clumbsy hands!!

These are great!!! I made two shortly after reading this post... one for a candy dish and the other i borrowed ur idea and i am using it for my bracelets!!! now i want to break a record up to make cuffs and earings!!! thanks for the posting!!!!

thats so cool! im trying to create a nostalgic theme for my room, so this is perfect

My sister did this about 30 (OMG am I that old?) with Beatles record including some that weren't only released in England. Who knew that she was melting away a fortune. She also painted them (with spray paint) and put glitter on them. Then she gave one to everyone for Christmas.

Wow! i can't believe it was featured!

Just made a little bowl out of a Long Blondes Vinyl, so theres a nice big pink centre. It's gone all crinkly and looks fabulous.

Sweet! I love this!

That's absolutly amazing.

x

Freaking Amazing x

this looks so much fun! i love melting stuff

sweeeet! i love it!! lol i'm totally going to make one and it's do doable! <3333

(watch, my oven explodes or something)

^_______^

Wow that's cool. But that would suck if you touched the valuable records XD

This rocks, I want to melt my sparkly pink record in to a bowl now.
