Another goldfish bowl idea is to stick and oasis 'frog' (looks like a plastic small table) which are available at all florists for about 10p each, add some florists tack (available at all frorists (it's like plastercine but waterproof and very sticky).
Cut a square of oasis foam soak it in water and push it onto the prongs of the 'frog' purchase 3 gerbras (approx £1.35 each) from your florist/supermarket.
Cut and push 1 of the gerbras into the oasis at the base of the bowl, the next slightly higher so leave a little more stem. Fill in the oasis with ivy or thistles (as in the photo) until you cant see it.
Then cut the last gerbra, leave a longer stem and pus it into the top of the oasis so it just comes out of the bowl.
For an additional contempoary effect you can swirl some 'bear grass or steel grass) available from all florists (quite cheaply) around the inside of the bowl. You may want to thread some beads or crystals onto the grass before placing in the bowl for an extra special look.
Surround with tea lights and Voila, an inexpensive table centre for you to make.
