Ok here is the instructions on how to make a gumball machine. I hope you all like it! It's very easy and cheap. I bought enough to make 5 and with paint I only spent about $27 plus $6 for gumballs.
Here is what you will need:
~ a small pot "coaster
~ some small balls to go on top
~ some red paint and a paint pen
~ a small glass bowl
~ hot glue
~ gumballs
First Step: Paint the pot, pot "coaster" and ball
Second Step: With your paint pen write "10 cents" on the glass bowl
Third Step: With your paint pen write the person's name on the pot.
Fourth Step: Hot glue the glass bowl on top of the pot and fill with gumballs! 
Fifth Step: Hot glue the ball on top of the "coaster"
Fifth Step: Hot glue the ball on top of the "coaster"
Sixth Step: Place lid on top and...
YOU'RE DONE!
It's THAT easy! You can make them for your kids teachers or grandparents! You can even write "Amy's M&Ms" (or whatever) on the pot if they don't like or normally chew gum! So fun and only takes about 20 minutes to do! Hope you enjoy them!

What a cute idea!
Aha! Now I understand what you're talking about. When you originally emailed the instructions, I thought you put the glass bowl on upside down (wih the opening glued to the pot), so I couldn't figure out how you'd get the gumballs out. These are SOO cute and now I have confidence that I can make them and I'm so excited to go to the craft store today!
Great idea, thanks !
That is adorable!
