Step-by-step tutorial
Step 1
We collected all of our paper scraps and cut them into strips and squares. I blew up the balloon to the perfect size to make a little bowl.
Step 2
Emma got to work adding the paper onto the top half of the balloon using the Mod Podge.
Step 3
After the bowl shape was made and covered well with both paper and Mod Podge, we set it aside to dry. A placemat works well to dry on.
Step 4
When it was completely dry (it takes about one night) we popped our balloon. This was a pretty silly part for Emma.
Final result!
I added a ribbon around the edge using hot glue (that's a grown-up-only step) per Emma's request. I think it was the perfect touch for our special bowl!
