Hey loves!
Soooo this DIY has me ridiculously excited because it’s as DIY as you can get. As in I made these freaking ahhhhmazing bowls from clay. Yea, the entire thing. How cool is that?! I can definitely see myself making lots more of these. Think- a pink or blue ombre set. I could scream right now. Maybe I just did who knows.
P.S. if you make any of these DIYs be sure to tweet me or instagram me with the #MAKEITINMAY so I can see what you did! I would especially loveee to see how your clay bowls came out. I’ll definitely be posting some of your DIYs on my blog!
You will need:
- air dry clay
- gold acrylic paint
- sealant spray
- spray paint/ acrylic paint of your choice
- glass bowl for your mold
- you can also use a rolling pin to smoothen out your clay or a beer bottle (no really)
Be sure to check out the video above to see my tricks for making your clay nice and pliant because if it’s all hard, it won’t roll out smoothly!
You can use differently shaped glass bowls as molds for your clay bowls
Would you believe this sexy beast held 8 M.A.C. lipsticks?! I used a deeper glass bowl for this with a more rounded/flat bottom.
I liked leaving my bowls a bit imperfect because when I painted the gold edges, it made it look almost geode-like. I can definitely see these at Anthro or Urban Outfitters being very overpriced.
The possibilities are endless when it comes to using these little clay bowls. Think- cute desk decor/organization for paperclips, thumbtacks and the ever famous washi tape. #OBSESSED
Hope you enjoyed and happy baking no baking!
XO,
