    Abstract Plastic Bowl

    By Stacy 113 Comments

    Art is subjective. And sometimes art comes in the form of a bowl. I totally get that an abstract, clear plastic, funky fruit bowl is not up everyone's alley. But I love to mix in unexpected items into my decor. I think it gives the space interest and keeps it from being stale.

    I have had this idea swimming around in my head for awhile now and when I saw that HomeRight made a  Heat Gun (affiliate link) I knew how I was going to make it happen. And luckily, as an ambassador, I get to try out their products! I also get to GIVEAWAY their products. So scroll down and enter :)

    Leather Gloves

    Needle Nose Pliers (optional)

    Mask

    Plexiglass

     Heat Gun

    HomeRight Heat Gun

     

    If I am being totally honest here, I was scared this was going to be a total FAIL. I had never tried to manipulate plexiglass and I didn't know if I could take a square piece of something and turn it into a "round" bowl. But I think everything is worth a try so I gave it a shot.

    Step #1

    The plexiglass actually comes as a rectangle. It was cut on my table saw. Make sure you have a blade with smaller teeth so it doesn't rip the edge up. Or you can use a knife that is meant to cut acrylic. Holed a straight edge up to the line and score it many times. Then snap it off.

    cutting-plexiglass

    Step #2

    Peel the protective film off of both sides.

    plexiglass sheets

    Step #3

    Place the plastic on top of a metal bowl to use as a mold of sorts.

    I will just throw it out there that you really should do this outside if possible. But it has been raining buckets here. BUCKETS. So my dining room gets turned into a workshop when the weather doesn't cooperate. If you have to do in indoors, please have really good ventilation. I had all my windows and doors open and a fan on. I also wore a mask.

    Make sure that the bowl or object you put the plexiglass on is tall enough. I realized as I went to bend the first corner down, that the bowl was not tall enough. I stacked a couple of paint cans under it. I know. Totally jimmy rigged and not very legit. If I were to do this again I would have placed the metal bowl on a metal stool I have. See, I get to make all the mistakes so you can do it better :)

     

    melting plexiglass with heat gun

     

    I also found that I needed something heavy on top to keep the plastic in place (centered) so I grabbed a heavy ceramic pitcher from the shelf next to me.

    Step #4

    I read the instructions before starting. Then I plugged it in and put it on setting 2 and on high heat. When you are bending the corners down, try to think about where it will need to bend in order to go down. Heat those places really well. Don't worry about heating the entire space. I did along the top and the sides to allow it to bend down.

    Once all of the corners are down, I flipped it right side up.

    Sorry I don't have a lot of in between pictures of the process. Between the gloves, holding a heat gun in one hand, and having no one to take the pictures for me, it was hard to document the process.

    Step #5

    This picture up above shows there is one last pointy side that needs bending. In order to do this, you WILL need to heat the whole surface area. Then when the whole area is heated up and soft, turn the heat gun off and set it on a safe surface (ex. concrete or something that won't burn or melt). With your hands (that have leather gloves on them) squeeze the two side together to create a ripped, or wavy effect. I also went around and heated the first parts I did a bit more to make them more exaggerated. When I was reading about bending plexiglass online before attempting this project, one article said to be careful and not get the gun too close tot he plastic or else it would bubble. Well folks, I LOVE seeded glass so I decided to do it on purpose!

    I didn't go too crazy. I just did random spots here and there. But I love the effect! I loved the experience. I love knowing that even if I did this a thousand times they would all be unique. Now I am think of what else I can melt......

      Love this! The bubbles- they add to the organic feel of the bowl. A couple of safety notes: better to do this outside on concrete as the wood table could have been heat stripped or even caught fire (if done on tile the tile could crack with the heat). Also, paint is flammable as is the label on the can. I work in a big box DIY store and the stories you hear....
      That said I'm going to try this!

        Yes, there are lots of better way to do it for sure. Luckily the heat is very concetrated and it turned out ok. Next time (And I have decided I must melt plexiglass again!) It will outside on the driveway with a metal table :)

      Heat guns remind me of scraping peeling paint, though thankfully I don't have any of that right now. But I burned out my last heat gun so I'd like a replacement for the day when, indeed, I have paint peeling again. But, I love your bowl idea -- totally cool. I'll bet there are all sorts of cool things that could be created free form out of Plexiglas. I look forward to seeing what you put in the bowl as the seasons change. It reminds me of winter ice. You're so creative, and daring! I feel emboldened to try this.

      I. Would live to try a heat gun to remove trim paint that my builder put an additive tin that makes it sticky and rubbery. It has been 12 years and the paint has never hardened. I put wax paper on the shelves initially and it has permanently stuck to them. The builder made a totally ridiculous comment......it's supposed to look like an older home!

      I'd probably do what you did, it's so neat looking! Plus being able to say I made it all on my own would be awesome!

      I would have to do this project outside for sure. Those smells always give me a headache. Something to definitely try.

      Awesome project! Still looking for something to melt? Have you ever tried records? They make great bowls as well - and Dali-style clocks :)

      I have just lost my job after 25 years and I'm trying to find ways to make money and I love to do crafty things. Oh my gosh I want to try this. But have no money.

      I am a disabled senior whom loves to do crafting. This is what keeps me going. This amazing heat gun that you are offering, looks and sounds axing! I know I could find many uses for it, so keep me in mind . Thank you and have a beautiful blessed day.

      What a neat bowl!! Lol my husband's rear view mirror fell off during a werid freezing night so he glued it back on in a hurry before work the next day and didn't realize it was upside down until he finished. So we have a heat gun because he had to remove it and redo it. Great pictures. What is approximate size of the plexiglass used?

      Haha, this makes me think of Phoebe's brother from friends. Phoebe: 'So uhm, what kind of things do you like to do at home?' Frank: 'Melt stuff'.

      But, I really like the bowl! ;)

      I love this idea and I really want to do it. but what do you know about the toxins or possible toxins released from melting plexi?

      Just a suggestion, but you should sand those edge smooth before heating, using heavy gloves and medium sandpaper block. The edges are as sharp and glass, sanding makes a nicer finished piece.

      So COOL! I'm wondering about the edges. Are they sharp? Would running your finger along them cut the skin? Just trying to assess kid use vs adult art! Thanks so much.

      NO WAY -- PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS INDOORS! This project is far too toxic for indoor settings. Also - the dust mask you show is not made to filter chemical fumes from super-heated acrylic sheeting. I don't believe that OPTIX brand (Plexiglas Co.) would approve of this VERY DANGEROUS use of their product. PLEASE advise your followers NOT to attempt this indoors, regardless of ventilation. If they try it, they must wear an OSHA approved VAPOR MASK. NEVER NEVER heat plastics in the presence of children, pets, and/or pregnant women!

      Nice idea. I have seen something similar made from old vinyls, and like the idea of this clear plastic plate as well!

      Old records would melt nicely. Or old trays, like tv food/lap trays could be cool... I would also try those fluorescent fixture covers with the jagged side... Would melt very curiously!
