Creativity from nothing: chamomile made of plastic bottles

With your own hands to make a bouquet of wildflowers is not so difficult, as it may seem at first glance. You just need to show desire, find some free time, scissors, a few white bottles of yogurt, one yellow and one green plastic bottles.

So, where to start making daisies from plastic bottles with your own hands? Let's start, perhaps, with the petals. Take a bottle and cut out of it the maximum number of circles (in diameter 10 cm). For one daisy, we need two such blanks, so you need to cut twice as many circles as it is supposed to make chamomiles. Now, on each workpiece, make sixteen incisions along the circumference, round each of them, and in the middle pierce the hole (you can use an awl). Now give the petals of the daisy a natural shape. For this we need a burning candle. Carefully draw each workpiece above the flame of the candle, so the petals will slightly curl and become like real ones. But try to be extremely cautious, otherwise you risk burning the workpieces and ruining the product.

Now let's start making the middle of the flower. For her, you need to take any yellow plastic bottle. Cut out three mugs (2 cm in diameter), make a fringe around the edge on each edge, lightly light it with a candle.

Our daisy from a plastic bottle is almost ready - it remains to make leaves, stalk and sepals.

The leaves of the flower can be cut from a green bottle, and with a candle to give them the desired shape.

For the manufacture of the stem, we need one long wooden skewer and a strip of half a centimeter thick cut from a green plastic bottle (try to make it as long as possible, cut it in a spiral). Heat the edge of the prepared strip above the candle and attach to the skewer, then in this way wind the whole stem gradually.

For the sepals it is necessary to cut out a few (two or three) five-pointed stars. With the flame of a candle, give them the necessary shape carefully.

Assembling the product

It remains the most pleasant and our daisies from plastic bottles with their own hands will be made! So, the final stage is assembly. Take the prepared stem and put a sepal on it. To the item did not fall down, make a piece of plastic stop (warm it over the candle and attach). Next, on the sepals, we put on the bases with petals and yellow centers. Leave the leaves to the stem again with the help of a temperature effect - heat the edge of the leaf over the candle and just glue it. That's made chamomiles made of plastic bottles - their own hands, what's the most pleasant! Collect them in a bouquet and put in a prominent place - let them please your and your family members.

By the way, you can create incredible things, a variety of crafts from plastic bottles. Camomiles are still "flowers"!
