Thanks to handy, dandy Google we were able to find basic instructions and some ridiculous videos on how to make them.
I don't have any pictures of the process, but making them is really simple. All you do is preheat your oven to 200-250. Place the record on top of an upside down bowl (you can use any size of bowl depending on what size you want your record bowl to end up) that is placed on a cookie sheet. Leave them in the oven for two-five minutes (basically until the record starts to fall down around the bowl it's on top of). Take it out of the oven and mold it into the shape that you want. And you have an amazing record bowl just like that! Sweet eh? (I know I look like a nerd in this picture, but I was super excited about what I had just created and I couldn't contain my over the top smile.)

That is super cool!! I wonder which record you melted?
neat-o! you're so creative!
The record was "The Unicorn" by the Irish Rovers. I had originally bought the record for its case; it's eventually going to go up on my wall as art (just got to get some sticky-tac). Making the bowl out of the record turned out to be an added bonus. I'm pretty pleased that for a buck I get a sweet bowl and a neat piece of art.
This is amazing, Kriss! I totally have to try this out...
