Button bowl

How to kind of make a button bowl

Here is my attempt at button bowl. 

I half blew up a small balloon and put it knot side down in a cup/glass/pot. I then coated it with pva and let it dry. 
Next stuck on buttons with pva  not leaving any gaps.Then i put more glue on -too much glue and my buttons all slid down the balloon.

 I should have waited !

So the trick is patience this bowl can take several days to make. I'd put several layers on the balloon before the buttons and let it dry, then stick on buttons and let it dry , finally more glue. Wait until completely dry before removing the balloon. 
Good Luck
