Record Bowl Gift Basket-Last minute ideas!

December24

Here’s a great idea for a quick Gift Basket and a fun reusable gift! Record Baskets!
Set your oven on a low temp. I used 260 degrees. Melt your record on a cookie sheet for about 3 minutes. When it apprears pliable, using oven mitts, pick up the record and shape it. I used a glass pie plate for my basic mold shape, but used my fingers to ruffle the sides.

It hardens in a few moments. If you don’t like the shape, remelt it and try again!

I topped it with a pointsetta foil flower (made from silver cupcake liners) with a jingle bell in the center. A very talented friend, Lisa Pace, shared this cool idea! See her how-to’s here! Don’t forget a cute handmade tag! Order your papercrafts, day or night at my Close To My Heart Website!
