Make a Textured Bowl for your Table Top with Plaster of Paris

Making a Plaster of Paris Bowl

Hello Guys, Welcome to DIY Craftopedia!
This is the first time I'm working with Plaster of Paris. It was fun and most importantly, It was economical. The kind of products which we can make with POP is a lot costlier in the shop than the POP packet itself. I have made a Wood Textured Bowl with it.

Materials needed -
- POP (Gypsum Powder) - Two bowls of the same shape but different size - Any old container to mix POP - Crushed plastic sheet. - Water - Spoon to mix. - Newspaper and gloves.

Procedure -

• Mix POP powder and water appropriately until you get a thick consistency.
• Cover the inner surface of bigger bowl with plastic sheet;
• Pour the mixture into the big bowl.
• Press the smaller bowl into the POP mixture.
• Put some heavy stones in the smaller bowl to hold it in place.
• Leave it to dry overnight.
• Remove the smaller bowl and slowly remove the plastic sheet as well.
• Paint the bowl with acrylic/enamel paints.
