Flowerbeds from plastic bottles

 

In addition to flowers and figures from plastic bottles, you can do more solid thingsthat can become part of landscape design. For the design of flower beds, this is generally the ideal material. If a tree in the ground deteriorates, the brick dampens and also crumbles over time, then plastic can be in the ground for hundreds of years and nothing will happen to it (which, incidentally, ecologists are very concerned about). In addition, a plastic bottle, one might say, is free material, but imagine how much a plastic fence will cost you. Yes, and in principle you don’t need to do anything, just poke bottles in the ground, well, it can still be painted.

Here, look what can you make a beautiful flower bed of plastic bottlesLike a Bizet Cake.

Bottles are used just like a fence, the construction of which does not require any costs and a minimum of effort

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They can be placed in any form and add a little decor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Furniture made of plastic bottles

 

It’s hard even to describe all the furniture options that can be made from plastic bottles. These are sofas, beds, tables, armchairsla - that is, almost everything. It's difficult to imagine? Then, here is a concrete example.

 How to make ottoman from plastic bottles

Of these, in fact, any furniture can be made - even a sofa, but for the ottoman, less bottles and time are needed. We are watching a master class on the manufacture of this subject.

• The bottles are connected with adhesive tape to each other, the lid and base of a suitable shape and size are cut out of plywood or thick cardboard and fastened with adhesive tape, preferably double-sided
• Foam or something similar is cut out to the size so that the ottoman comes out soft, and fasten with tape
• The resulting design is sheathed with fabric, recommend knitted
• The ottoman is almost ready, it remains only to decorate it. You can crochet the cover, sew from rags of fabric. This option is suitable not only for giving, a ready-made ottoman can also decorate the city living room.

According to the same scheme, this chair can be made here, it is not difficult to make the back. Although you don’t need to sheathe it, it may be too creative for an urban apartment, but for a summer house it is quite suitable and in this version, in my opinion, it is very stylish.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Armchair and sofa made of plastic bottles

 

“Upholstered” furniture from plastic bottles can be made in various ways.. From improvised means, except for scotch tape or strech film, nothing else is needed. In some cases, you can use glue. The scheme is usually this:

 

• the neck of one bottle is cut off and the neck of the neck is inserted into the second; for an average chair, about a hundred two-liter bottles will be needed;
• blocks from 4-6 bottles are assembled from prepared blanks;
• Having calculated the area of ​​the horse, the blocks are fastened with tape;
• the back and sidewall are made of higher modules, increasing the workpiece to five bottles.
• blanks are built up in the same way, the bottom of the upper bottle is cut off and inserted with the neck inside, and so on to the desired size.

 

Thus, you can make a sofa and chairs, as in this photo. To complement the “plastic” composition, you need another table. Well, it’s already quite easy to do.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you get a taste, you can swipe at a soft corner or such a table set with chairs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pergolas from plastic bottles

Every year there are more and more plastic bottles in the world. A certain Alfredo Santa Cruz, a resident of Argentina, even built a whole house out of plastic bottles. What motives drove him to this construction, economy or thirst for fame, is unknown, but there is such a fact.
We haven’t built a house yet, but you can easily build a gazebo. To do this, you need a drawing and a lot of plastic bottles. If you want something fun, you can dial colorful containers.

 The manufacturing process is not complicated, what to make a gazebo from plastic bottles, what a chair, the scheme is almost the same.

 

• First, collect the "logs", that is, cut the bottom and insert the bottles one into the other. If, for the purity of the experiment, you also plan to make the frame out of bottles, then fill the bottles for the bottom layer with sand.
• Connect the logs with tape. Of course, it will be easier to work with a wooden frame; you can use wire and fasten bottles in different positions.
• We prepare the place and install the frame.
• Attaching bottles is already an arbitrary process, as your fantasy tells you.

 

The roof, by the way, can also be made from bottles, if you cut them along and make something like tiles. To make plastic sheets of “tiles” turned out to be even, dip them in hot water (not boiling water) and hold them under pressure for 24 hours. Then lay them on a wooden crate and fasten them with self-tapping screws, like ordinary sheets.
Such a structure can be purely decorative, to decorate the site.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or more practical, in the form of a small house for some practical purposes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plastic bottle fence

Practical people have long appreciated the versatility of plastic bottles and use them not only as a material for creativity, but also for more practical purposes. For example, construct various original fences from plastic bottles.

 

A fence of plastic bottles on a wire

This method is very simple. A wire is pulled between the posts, onto which plastic bottles are strung. In this way, you can make both a low fence, in the form of a front garden, and a two-meter fence.Also, a denser fence can be made on the wire, if you make "columns" of bottles, cutting the bottom and stringing them on top of each other.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plastic Bottle Border

It’s even easier to make the curb by simply digging the sand-filled bottles around the place that needs to be visually highlighted. In this case, there is a good opportunity for creativity if fill bottles with bulk material in different colors.

 

Fence rack made of plastic bottles

For such a fence, it is necessary to prepare a frame. Between the pillars fasten the slats and generously lubricate them with building glue. You can also use another option - fasten with screws on the transverse rails of the lid, and then simply screw the bottles into them. For durability, fix the bottom of the bottles to the top rail with nails.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plastic bottle cement fence

In this case, the bottles laid out by the bottoms outward, like bricks, are poured with cement.

 

Decor from plastic bottle caps

If you collected caps from plastic bottles, you may have participated in promotions, or for other reasons, they can be used, for example, to decorate the fence. True, you will need a lot of caps.

Much has been written here about the use of plastic bottles, and caps, this is also a great material for various products, just few people think about it. Mosaic, this is understandable, the photo shows which paintings can be laid out, but besides this, there are many other ways of application, some of which are shown in this gallery.

Different products from plastic bottles

It’s clear that to list everything what can be made from plastic bottles impossible.

Too large a range for fantasy gives this lightweight and easy to use material. Here are at least some interesting photos.

 

Boats and rafts from plastic bottles

They probably came up with the idea of ​​making boats from plastic bottles in the first place. They are as if created for this - light, durable and filled with air. The main thing is not to worry about the density of the seams, so that only the bottles are whole.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Boat made of plastic bottles with glue

 

You can make a boat with glue, buying a good waterproof glue today is not a problem. The principle is this, the bottles are laid out in layers and then glued together. The photos below show how to do this. The steps are as follows:

• We assemble the deck, three layers of bottles will go on it, glue the layers separately, then lay on top of each other.
• We assemble the hull, here we give shape to the future ship.
• Glue the bottle cap to the bottom.
• The lower part of the boat will consist of bottles fixed in the hollows between the other bottles, this is another layer, so the structure will be stronger and stay better on water.
• We make boards and seats.

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
•  

Such a boat is designed for one person, that is, more than a hundred kilograms should not be loaded into it. In principle, you can increase the carrying capacity by adding a few more layers of plastic bottles.

DIY raft of plastic bottles

 

The raft is even easier to make, you just need to tightly link the structure, which will consist of bottle blocks and plywood, and you can go on a trip. In this case, the bottles do not have to be carefully adjusted, just wrap the blocks with tape and tape them to the plywood. In these photos you can see how resourceful guys realized this idea.

Of course, on such a raft it’s better not to climb into the river, it’s only suitable for some fun in a quiet pond. For a more serious trip, you can make, for example, such a serious option with a sail, even a steering wheel is provided here. I do not know who posted this scheme on the Internet, but you can try.

Floating table made of plastic barrels

In addition to plastic bottles, there are plastic barrels, also an excellent craft. An interesting idea, on land this design is an ordinary picnic table, but if done special frames for fastening plastic barrelsthen it turns into floating picnic table. How to do this, see the step by step photos. Just do not eat in the open sea or on a river with a fast current, otherwise the meal may be delayed.

Plastic Bottle Feeders

 

To do feeding troughs is a usual occupation of schoolchildren at labor lessons. Once we made them from wood, and it turned out pretty well. But today, in times of plastic bottles with bird feeders there is no problem at all.

Now the children are competing on how to decorate it better.

Although you can not invent anything, but just make a hole and the birds will be happy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or come up with something more functional.

 

Simple plastic bottle feeder

 

The method of manufacturing any feeder from a plastic bottle is basically the same, design details may vary. You can come up with some more functionality to create extra comfort for the birds.

If you are making from a large bottle or plastic canister then you can not reinvent anything, cut out more openings so that the feed is under the roof and enough.
If there is a simple plastic can, you can make just such a feeder

You can use any plastic products, there would be a desire

You can come up with a design of a plastic bottle feeder, as already mentioned, there is one principle, maybe the design is different. It is important to ensure that it does not scare away the birds, so it is advisable firmly fix the feederso that the wind does not swing and do not add extra details - rags, fringe, loose pieces of plastic in the decor, all this when the wind will scare away birds. It is clear that we want to do beautifully, only the birds will not appreciate it, they would just bite. In the gallery some ideas for feeders, you can take as a basis for your creativity.
