Instructions:

Using hot glue, add a good amount to the top of the cone (the large one was flat on the top the small one I had to cut the top point off to make it flat) and then place the small glass bowl on top.

Press firmly so that it adheres. I held it in place for about a minute to make sure it was secure.

In a well ventilated area, spray paint it lightly.

If you spray paint too heavy it will melt the Styrofoam.

I did two light coats and allowed time to dry. I did it outside on a day that had light wind and keep the spray paint can at least a foot away when spraying so it wouldn’t melt the cone.

Style and enjoy!
