I've since broken the bong I base this on, and haven't built another one because I have more than enough smoking devices already, but this is extremely pretty easy, and damn cheap as far as nice glass bongs go.
Step One
Go to a discount store with nice vases (Burlington Coat Factory is my paradise for this, as you won't find a vase over $20), you can usually find ones similar to this for around $20 (though probably not quite as detailed).
Step Two
Buy a Glass drill bit or a diamond drill bit (about $8 at any hardware store)
How to Drill Glass
Step Three
Buy a correct size female piece and rubber grommet for the hole you drilled in step two, you could even get a female piece with a diffuser on the end if you wanted. Buy a bowl to fit the female piece. (Around $15 total probably)
Step Four
Smoke!
Total Cost: ~45 bucks
Probable cost of a bong like this in a headshop: $150 at least
