Life is Just a Bowl of ... Tickets!
My daughter gave me a roll of tickets for Christmas to use in my art. When I removed the plastic wrapping I absentmindedly began pushing the cardboard ring at the bottom in and out and the circle of tickets began expanding.
I'd seen these ticket bowls before but never realized that it was this easy to do. I just kept pushing in one direction and pulling the top up evenly and voila! a bowl made out of tickets. Now I want to get several different colours and make more. If I'd tried to follow directions for this? - it never would have happened. Talk about happy accidents!

ReplyDeleteSharon - Exactly. I'm rubbish when it comes to following directions - so I love when things like this just happen!

How did you get it to hold it's shape??
ReplyDeleteI love it!
Bobbie - It just holds - the tickets are so tightly wound in a circle that the pressure just holds it together - like magic!
