All is ready? Then let's get to work! We will follow the step-by-step instructions:Orchids made of plastic bottles

  • Referring to Fig. 1, cut the bottom of the bottle. This is an excellent landing base for an orchid - the upper petals already exist. It remains to adjust the shape of the 4 petals with scissors and slightly to melt their edges with the flame of a candle;
  • We continue to "grow" flowers from plasticbottles with your own hands: from the body cut out the "consignment" flower for 4 (6-8 - if desired) petals. It can be glued to the substrate. Or, having made through holes through the burner in detail, collect the orchid bowl on a decorative carnation;

  • From a piece of yellow (brown) plastic, make the core of the flower. Prepare the stem, gently melting on the spirit lamp a thin strip of plastic - twisted or straight ends of the bottle;
  • Gather your artwork together, using the technique of soldering parts to each other. However, somewhere you can and use glue.

The peduncle can be made even simpler:cut a wide strip of plastic along the entire height of the bottle and fold it lengthwise, pressing tightly. Cut off the excess planes with scissors, leaving only a thin corner - the leg is ready. Now it’s no secret to you how daisies are made from plastic bottles. Shall we move on?

Let's make lilies right now and don't forget about water lilies:Lily from polyethylene bottle

  • Taking for the benefit of Fig. 4, cut out their planes of white plastic bottle (from under the milk) several identical blanks with characteristic lilies with pointed petals. Inside the part, provide a hole sufficient for the passage of the bottle neck;
  • Another bottle (for example, yellow)cut the neck with a stock - it will go to the heart of the lily from bottles with stamens (cut the "prikup" into strips and deform them by heating). Put white blanks with petals from below on the neck thread, fix the collected items with a cork.
