Where to start the path of decorating the plot and cottages? Everything is very simple - you need as many bottles as possible, preferably different in size and color, and most importantly, your imagination and desire to create.
The first decoration that we will create is a bright palm tree made of plastic bottles. For work, we need scissors or a sharp clerical knife, the bottles themselves and the wire for fastening. It is logical to make the trunk of a palm from bottles of dark, brown color, and the top and leaves from bottles of green. In bottles prepared to create the trunk of our palm tree, the bottoms should be cut off and inserted one into the other so that a tree trunk is obtained. All bottles for greater strength and reliability are interconnected by wire. To create palm leaves, a green bottle with a cut bottom, neck down, is attached to the top of the trunk from bottles. After that, this bottle is cut into strips, and the strips are wound in such a way as to look like palm leaves. That's all - our palm tree is ready! She is not afraid of either snow or rain, and she will delight you for decades with her bright appearance. Important: if you have small children, do not forget to melt all the cut parts of the bottles to avoid cuts.
The next decoration of your summer house we offer to make bright butterflies from plastic bottles. Such butterflies will look especially interesting on the gazebo or fence of your site. To create such a butterfly, it is necessary to cut off the neck and bottom of the bottle and cut it lengthwise, thus obtaining a sheet of plastic. A butterfly blank made of cardboard made in advance should be attached to the received sheet and plastic cut in accordance with the blank. Next, you should bend the resulting butterfly in half, and fix the wire on the fold line.To create an even brighter craft, such a butterfly can be painted with special acrylic paints and decorated with beads and beads.
Another craft that can be made from an ordinary plastic bottle is a bright flower bed. To create it, you need to pick up several dozen bottles (depending on the size of the flowerbed) of the same size and color. Then you should dig these bottles around the perimeter of the flower bed to the required depth and decorate them with paints. That's all - a bright, creative fence for your flowerbed is ready.
No less interesting craft from the bottle will be a beautiful flower pot. You can make it in two ways - by cutting off the neck of the bottle or its bottom. In the first case, you will get a pot of standard shape, in the second - an unusual cone-shaped, which can be used as a hanging planter. You can decorate such pots with both special paint and beads, colored yarn or paper. Little secret: You can give even more unusual shape to such a pot by slightly heating it and softening the plastic. This technique allows you to create real works of art in your area.
What about decorating a summer cottage like animals from bottles? For example, in just half an hour you can make cute plastic pigs that will decorate any summer cottage. To do this, we need a bottle of 5 liters, from which we will make the body of the figure, as well as several smaller bottles for her legs. Also, prepare pink paint and scissors or a clerical knife.
First you need to make holes in a large bottle, the diameter corresponding to the diameter of small bottles, then cut the necks of small bottles, insert and fix these necks in the body of the pig. After that, paint the piglet pink and draw eyes, ears and a piglet on it. That's all, the figure is ready and will serve as a wonderful decoration of your site.
