This is awesome and so easy and cheap! I bought a bowling ball from a Goodwill store for 50 cents. I then went to the hardware/home improvement store and bought one spray paint can of primer and one can of metallic spray paint (various color choices). I took a old coffee can and put the bowling ball on there to paint it. I put the primer on first and then put the metallic paint on when the primer was dry. I displayed my MASTERPIECE on a cheap fancy looking pot from Walmart or gardening center. Have Fun!
