DIY Stone Pedestal Bowl Dupe

August 25, 2021 · In: Crafts

Learn how to make the stone-look pedestal bowl from my viral TikTok video that mimics high-end expensive art pieces for under $20.

I am a lover of high-end interior design, and even more of lover of hand-crafted stoneware and pottery. But the problem is, my wallet doesn’t love them as much as my heart does. I’ve been swooning over the pedestal bowls I’ve seen in magazines for the longest time, but I couldn’t justify spending $250+ on a bowl.

So one day I took a quick trip to the Dollar Tree in search of faux marble plates and I had an idea. I raced to Walmart after to pick up spray paint, and headed back to my craft room to attempt a dupe of my dreamy stone bowl. I filmed the process for fun and put the video on TikTok, and in less than 24 hours it had over a million views. Crazy right? Turns out everyone else loves a good dupe just as much as I do. Here’s the exact process I used so you can make one, too!

Supplies You Need

  • Short drinking glass (I got mine from Dollar Tree)
  • Large serving bowl (I had mine already, but you can get one from the Dollar Tree or Walmart)
  • Strong super glue glue (I used Krazy Glue Max Bond, but use whatever you like)
  • Rust-oleum Stone Textured Spray Paint
  • Rust-oleum White Spray Paint (Satin finish)
  • Rust-oleum Matte Clear Spray Sealer
  • Cardboard Box

How To Make A Stone-Look Pedestal Bowl

Start by flipping the drinking glass upside down and swirling Krazy Glue Max Bond (or any other type of really strong super glue) on the base of the cup. Anybody else permanently call it Kragle from The Lego Movie? Haha!

Sit the serving bowl on top of the upside down glass, then weigh it down by putting something heavy inside. Let that sit undisturbed for a full 24 hours.

Once the glue is set, put the cardboard box outside in the shade on a sunny day with low humidity. (Humidity makes paint dry slowly and causes drips, runs, and uneven coverage)

Put the pedestal bowl inside the box and give it a light coat of the stone texture spray. Let that sit for 30 minutes. It doesn’t have to dry completely, but it does need to settle in a little.

Cover the texture with the satin spray paint. I used white but beige or black would look awesome, too. You should cover the entire bowl with the satin paint completely. Let that dry for at least an hour.

Next, apply another coat of stone texture. You can add as much or as little as you’d like. There really isn’t a right or wrong way to do this. Let the bowl sit for another hour, then bring it into the garage or a well-ventilated room to rest for 24 hours.

After a full day has passed, apply a top coat of matte clear spray all over the bowl and let it sit for another 24 hours.

Then it’s ready to style! Quick note about food: if you plan to store fruit in the bowl or use it to serve snacks like chips or nuts for a party, make sure you use a food-safe clear coat. You can find these specialty spray paints at most hardware and craft stores.

Sometimes we get busy, maintenance tidying gets pu Sometimes we get busy, maintenance tidying gets pushed aside, or another family member accidentally sabotages the entire area you organized last month.
Instead of stressing over it, take it as an opportunity to redo it better this time. Maybe the way you organized that space before was too complicated and hard to maintain. Or maybe it wasn’t categorized enough so things piled up.
When you find a space that lost its Organization Mojo,  empty it out, try something new, and see if that works better.
You’ll find your own signature organizing style through experimentation and get your home Organized-ish one drawer at a time. 😉

Today on the blog, I’m sharing the exact plans and steps of how I designed this pantry and how my handyman helped me bring it to life.
And if you want a full tour of the pantry, head over to my YouTube channel to look inside all the drawers and cubbies. The pantry starts at timestamp 21:14. 🥰

This tray and these canisters were “supposed” This tray and these canisters were “supposed” to be used in a kitchen. The packaging literally said “kitchen storage canister” and “kitchen turntable” and they were in the kitchen storage aisles of the store. But don’t let those labels feel like you’re stuck with only certain types of organizers for each room.
Next time you’re shopping for organizers, look in other aisles and you’ll be surprised at what you’ll find. Bathroom organizers are great in craft rooms, garage storage is perfect for a home gym, office storage is good for kid’s rooms, and kitchen organizers can be used in bathrooms.
If you’ve been struggling to find the right organizers for your home, it’s time to think outside the box. 😉
