Ice Cream Bowls: Not Just For Ice Cream Anymore!

Ice Cream Bowl Fundraiser

So you like The Art League and you want to support us. You know about the Ice Cream Bowl Fundraiser happening this weekend. And the King Street Art Festival sounds like a cool place to check out.

But what if you’re not an ice cream person? We’ve heard such people exist (though none of them work at The Art League).

We’ll let you in on a little secret: while these are officially ice cream bowls, we won’t tell anybody if you use them for something else. See, with handmade ceramic bowls, it’s not what’s on the inside that counts. It’s about that warm and fuzzy feeling every time you use it.

Alternate use #1: Soup

When you’re sick, or it’s cold and wet outside, what warms you up better than a bowl of soup? A bowl of soup in a handmade bowl.

Pick your favorite!
Choices, choices!

Alternate use #2: Cereal

We’ve tried them out in our test kitchen, and ice cream bowls perform admirably as cereal bowls. Pair with your favorite mug for an even better way to start your day.

We only have about 1,000 to choose from, so come early to claim your favorite.

Alternate use #3: Decorate

These one-of-a-kind bowls bring some instant class to your home, whether they’re empty or artfully filled with seashells or knick-knacks. For some ideas, see this blog post.

Alternate use #4: Cats

It’s well-known that cats love bowls. Pop your kitty in one of these works of art, and they’ll feel right at home. Bonus: you’ll know where to find your cat the next time you need it.

Or two.

Alternate use #5: Share the love
