How about this attractive button bowl?

All you need to make this button bowl is a balloon, hot/super glue and a bunch of buttons. You can use one color buttons, a few colors or a bunch of colors.

Directions:

1. Blow up the balloon and tie it up at your desired size! 
2. From the top of the balloon to the middle of it glue the buttons on. Just make sure you don't use washable and weak elmers glue or something.
3. Then pop the balloon with a needle or something! Then let it dry and enjoy!

 If you only have plain colored buttons you can spray paint it afterwards with your desired color.
