Crafts from wheels for flowers
Most often , flower beds, flower beds and flowerpots are made from used stingrays. The simplest option will be mastered even by a baby. The tire is laid in the right place, in the middle the earth is falling asleep, the flower garden is ready. Crafts from wheels can be installed on supports (for this, rubber cannot be removed from the disk: it will be the bottom),
dig in the ground with a rib or, laying one on the other, build a slide. You can make a pot out of old rubber, but for this you need a grinder or a sharp carpentry knife. The tire is laid on the ground (do not remove the disc!) And is cut off next to the tread. Two halves, lower and upper, need to be twisted. You will get a vase that can be decorated with an ornament of stones or simply painted in different colors. It is important to take into account one detail: Russian tires, especially winter ones, are difficult to cut and turn. Imported is much easier to process. In our city there are more and more swans carved from tires. Such crafts from the wheels are cut out with a knife, then painted. In the same way, you can build a rooster, pelican, horse or hippo. The help in creating a pattern is usually provided by professional cutters, people who know how to sew toys, or just gardeners with good imagination and drawing skills. Crafts look great on flowerbeds, playgrounds, etc., if you just hang the ramp on the wall and pour earth into it, you get an original decoration for country walls.
We arrange a sports ground. Crafts from wheels
Old tires are a great tool for building sports fields. Rubber can be dug into the ground around the perimeter of the site: you get a fence. Crafts made of wheels are an excellent obstacle course. Lying slopes can play the role of “bumps”, dug with an edge - to indicate a path in the maze. Of these, you can build obstacles of different heights, sandboxes, even some kind of trampolines (although jumping on such "simulators" is a risky activity).
In Rostov-on-Don, we saw a platform in which fencing, gates and stands for fans were made of tires. They were folded on top of each other and glued tires. At the dachas, chairs and stools made of solid slopes or chairs, the seats of which are part of the cut-off rubber, will be an excellent solution.
Crafts from wheels for household needs
From the wheels you can make hundreds of buckets for water. It is enough only to firmly attach the bottom to the walls. The shape can be completely different: oblong, round, resembling an amphora or a large jug. If the camera is preserved from the wheel, then it can be used to store technical water. To do this, you will have to hang it on the wall. You can build tracks or sides for them. For this, the ramps are dug into the ground. From old wheels “bungee” and beautiful swing are obtained. Moreover, the originality of the swing will depend on their creator. One will simply hang part of the ramp on a chain, and the other will give the swing the shape of a rooster or another bird or animal. And you can also build a rectangular frame and fit it with a cut and straightened tire. It will turn out to be a good house, capable of sheltering from rain. The conclusion is very simple: a tire is a free material from which you can make anything.
