I made a bowl made out of yarn that is used as a decoration. NOTE: The yarn balls are not part of this instructable

You will need:Yarn, Mod podge, A paint brush, A small bowl, A big bowl, plastic wrap, and a space that can get messy

Grab your plastic wrap and put some on the outside of the large bowl.

First take the Mod Podge and put enough of it in the small bowl that you can drag the yarn through the Mod Podge and have the yarn covered

Then start wrapping the outside of the large bowl using the yarn that you dragged in the mod podge and keep going until you get to the top then spiral inwards until it is solid

If there is not enough glue on the yarn when completed take the paintbrush and brush the yarn on the bowl with Mod Podge

Add a second layer it dosn't have to be a complete layer but should be enough to add additional support

Drying

Then let dry for 72 Hours

If the bowl is still floppy after that take the plastic wrap of and put the yarn bowl inside of the large bowl and paint some Mod Podge on the inside and let it dry

After hardened and dry cut the excess glue off of the top
