Crafts from plastic bottles with their own hands: flowers

An ordinary plastic bottle can become the mainmaterial for the manufacture of flowers of incredible beauty, which can decorate not only the room in the house, but also the plot of land. They are not afraid of strong wind and frequent rains. In addition, for the manufacture of this craft does not need a large number of additional tools. All you need is paint, scissors and wire. The main thing at work is diligence and creativity.

It is best to choose a bottle of hard plastic: from household chemicals, shampoos or lotions. This container is denser, already colored, which is simply necessary to create flower compositions, because if you apply the paint manually on the petals, then in the street, it quickly "peels" off moisture or crackles from the sun's rays. Obligatory stages of work - choosing a bottle, cutting out the elements of the desired shape (depending on which flower is selected) and their connection with each other.

Lilies of the valley from plastic bottles

The size of the flowers depends on the master's preferences: the more buds are planned to be made, the larger the bottle is needed.
