Have you purchased a summer cottage, but don’t have enough funds for arrangement? Or maybe you want to do everything yourself, to put your soul into your site? Actual theme is crafts from bottles.
Both plastic and glass are suitable for the garden. Collect everything that is at home. You can ask your neighbors and relatives.
What are the simplest crafts from bottle gardening? Well, firstly, from the bottles you get an excellent border for flower beds. To do this, they need to be dug upside down, leaving a certain part of the bottle on the surface. Borders can be made from plastic and glass bottles - choose one color or combine different ones. If the flower garden is already ready, then just dig the bottles along its outline. And if the flower garden needs to be formed, then draw contours with something sharp, and dig in your border on them. Be creative here. Make curly contours. Inside a large flower garden, place several small ones, and so on.
Another simple craft for a bottle garden is a flower pot. Here comes the plastic container. In one of the pictures you see how you can decorate a dull wall with the help of simple pots from one and a half liter bottles. Cut a piece of one side of the bottle, make holes for the cords, so that then hang your product. Fill it with earth and plant everything that the soul desires there. You can hang such pots anywhere - on the walls, and on the fences, and under the awnings.
And if your site has a dried up small tree, you can make a bottle tree out of it. It turns out a bright element of decor. Just put glass bottles on the dried branches. Blue bottles look very nice.
In many kindergartens, crafts made from plastic bottles are very popular. For a kindergarten, this is not only arrangement of the territory, it is also an opportunity to teach children to do crafts on their own. From bottles for the garden in which children play, you can make a bunch of useful things: these are bird feeders, characters of the forest world, garlands for the holidays and even toys. For example, from plastic canisters with handles, cars are excellent. Turn the canister upside down and glue the wheels from the bottle caps to the bottom. Then this machine can be decorated, make an ambulance or a police car.
Trees made of plastic bottles look great. As you can see in the picture, a wooden base is made. Take bottles of different colors and cut into thin strips, without cutting a couple of centimeters to the neck. Then simply string the resulting blanks with the neck down on the branches of your tree. Place some of these trees on the plot and you will get a fabulous forest.
By the same principle, a New Year wreath for doors is made. The picture shows a wreath from one bottle, but it can be decorated with Christmas balls, or better yet, use real cones. They can be collected in the nearest forest. Carefully screw a small self-tapping screw into the base of the cone, and wind a wire to it, which then will be attached to the wreath.
Cones can be left in kind, or you can sprinkle with hairspray with shine. By the way, it turns out a great option for Christmas tree decorations.
As you can see, there are a lot of options. And these are the simplest crafts from bottles. For the garden use bottles and as a building material. Both houses and gazebos are made of them, they are used in the construction of fences, various fences and so on. So do not throw away this material, but use it to create your masterpieces. You just need to turn on your imagination and apply a little dexterity.
