DIY: Mini Doily-print Bowl by Sodapop Design

I came across this wonderful tutorial for DIY Mini Doily-print Bowls (via Pinterest) yesterday, and I've already made out my shopping list for the supplies needed to make my own over this next weekend. The project was created by Carol of Sodapop Design blog (written in German), but if that's not your language of choice, then a quick Google translation should make the project doable for you.
It looks like for her tutorial, Carol used a clay-like product called Efaplast (I found it online here). I'm hoping they have it in my local craft store though, so I don't have to be patient while I wait for it to ship from an online store (waiting is always so tough when you have an exciting new project to try out). I'm also wondering if the clay I used for my DIY Star Garland would work. It dries quickly, is very hard once dry and can be sanded for a nice clean finish (hmmm). Look for doilies in your local thrift or craft store (sometime you can find them at dollar stores too). For the full tutorial, hop on over to Sodapop Design blog. Enjoy! xo Ez

I love this. At first I was thinking, doilies are a little old fashioned, but the bowl completed is so chic.
Thanks for sharing,

Cute! I'm a fan of anything that has to do with doilies. :)
wow, so gorgeous!! i'll definitely have to try this out - what a fab find!
Oh my gosh, this is too cool! I bought some polymer clay to do the star garland but would now like to use it to do this instead... do you think it will work? and what did she use for a glaze?
Thanks for your comments sweets! @ Rachel - I'd guess that the clay I used for my star garland would work really well for this project. I'm going to give it a try and will report back here with my results soon. xo Ez
Oh, wow, Ez, thank you so much for supporting my tutorial! You made my day! I think that clay that you used for the garland would work. And Rachel, for the glaze I used white acrylic (do you say this in english?) Have a nice day and thank you so much for your nice comments! Greets from Germany, caro
Love, love, love this...can't wait to try it.
