When you can't find that holiday serving bowl you thought you had...invent one!

 

I thought I had a Christmas bowl that I'd put my fudge in for the party but could not find one in my house.  I did find this clear plastic bowl so my mind started thinking...hmm, what can I do with this to make it more fiestive?

Searching through my Christmas papers and decoration I grabbed some silver paper and curling ribbon.

 

Using a small tupperware lid I made two circles with the silver paper. 

Turning the edges over on one circle.

Measuring the curling ribbon to be long enough to hang over the sides of bowl.

Taping the ribbon to the underside of silver paper with turned edges.

The put the other silver paper circle on top of the taped ribbon using tape that has been wrapped in shape of double sided tape.

Then

taping the circle onto the bottom of the clear bowl so the underside with raw edges does not show.

Take scissors and run ribbon along thumb to make curls.

hang the ribbon over the edges of bowl.

 

I was going to put the fudge in the bowl this way but later decided to put a little tin foil also in the bowl to add a shiny silver effect and keep the fudge from sticking to the ribbon.
