So far, I’ve sent in the application to Etsy and am anxiously waiting to see if our team gets approved before putting too much work into it. The look of the blog is still not as good as I want… If anyone out there knows how to make it look better PLEASE HELP!!!! Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
It is my personal goal to do one post a day, and I would love for the other team members to contribute as well. So that being said, here is a quick tutorial for how to make flower pots/plant containers out of records! I’ve seen many places making bowls out of records, and figured the hole in the middle would make them even better for plants.
First set the oven to 200° (A quick tidbit of information that I just discovered – you can make a ° symbol by pressing alt 0176 on a PC keyboard)
Grab something that can withstand high temperatures, (I used a pint glass, and it broke the next time I did dishes 0_o) place it in the center of the baking tray. It is best to use something tall, so that the sides of the record melt down to help form a bowl shape.
Let the record “bake” for 5 – 10 mins. This will soften the vinyl to make it more pliable. You must work quickly because the record will harden within minutes! Don’t worry though, because you can reheat it as many times as you need!
