The first thing you have to do is paint the wooden disc, the bowl and pot with spray paint. Do each piece separately and allowed to dry following the manufacturers instructions. When dry, place the pot upside down and hits the base the base of the bowl, and ends by placing the timber on the bowl to do some kind of cover. To fit perfectly so you can cut to size. You can leave it out, say, that stands the diameter of the bowl, or inside, embedded inside. On the left, the table made for you, right, the original.
