What fun to take at plain ordinary glass bowl and transform it into a lovely work of art. You could take this a step further and make thelse as the base for a centerpiece for a bridal shower or wedding reception and add on the date, a letter initial, or the couple's name and of course use colors that coordinate with the theme of the wedding or party, or for a graduation, the school colors! A fun and creative project!
