24 Clever Ways To Reuse A Mixing Bowl Around
The House
By MEREDITH EASTWOOD
Planter
Drill drainage holes in the bottom of your mixing bowl, fill it with soil, and plant your favorite flowers or greenery to create a unique, durable indoor or outdoor planter.
Gift Basket
Fill your mixing bowl with assorted gift items that your recipient will love, like treats, wine, or candles; tie a ribbon around the rim; and attach a personalized card.
Tiered Stand
Glue a small spindle or furniture leg to the center of a large mixing bowl, then attach a smaller bowl on top to create a tiered stand to organize or display items.
Ice Bucket
Fill a large mixing bowl with ice cubes and bottled or canned drinks to use as an ice bucket, or add a scoop and put it near the drinks so guests can add their own ice.
Terrarium
Turn an old glass mixing bowl into an open plant terrarium by adding a layer of small pebbles for drainage, then some landscaping fabric, and finally, soil and plants.
