It is more fun to re-purpose an item then to know what it's original purpose was, you did good Toni, it looks great.
How did I miss this! thats great! You have given me a great idea, since i can't get a bowling ball anywhere near me. And i have been wanting to make one of those gazing balls,, with the midnight sun, i think that would be awesome. styrofoam. okay, now i have to hunt. Thank you Toni!!!
