Cool Bowls Made From Old Comic Books
Instructions for ‘upcycling’ your old comics straight from my super-cool nana, who made these!
Nana Says: “What is amazing is it’s the simplest process. You just take each page and roll it around a ruler so you have a strip, scotch tape each strip together until you have a big long streamer… and then you roll it tight like a jelly roll. Once you get your jelly roll, like a big wheel, you just push gently. Then you mod podge it to keep it stiff.”
MUCH better than hiding in my bookshelf!
It takes a lot of folding for the bigger ones.
She even made a frame using some of the black and white Ninja Turtles comic interiors.
All those comics can now see daylight a little more.
What do you think, worth dismantling all those comics for?

kingmonkey 9 months agoI was about to rail against the travesty of defaced comic books when I saw that it was mostly Ghostbusters and TMNT books from the early ’90s. Very well. Carry on then.
