How do you make vinyl bowls out of records?

Answer 1

Get a terra cotta pot and put it in the oven place the record on top of the pot and WATCH IT. (oven is at 250 degrees) You want the record soft enough to bend but still rather firm.

Take it out carefully and let it cool

Answer 2

Heat your oven to 250 (approximately). Turn a bowl upside down on a cookie sheet (preferably one that can be thrown away if necessary), place your record on top of the bowl and place in the oven. The record will soften and drape to fit the shape of the bowl. These make wonderful flower pots with a ready drain hole. You can paint or decorate them to your liking. To chefzilla, old records are not necessarily valuable, especially if scratched. Usually the value is in the jackets and generally speaking, only in pristine condition.

put them in the oven... Put the record over top of a bowl and then put them in a low heat oven until they melt. They will form the shape of whatever the bowl is.. Good luck. I saw this on Rachel ray or some home make over show
