The surrounding space offers plenty of room for creativity. You can make unusual crafts from a wide variety of materials. For example, plastic bottles can be used to make bright and durable flowers that can be used later to decorate your home and garden.
It is necessary
To create such a flower, you only need a five-liter plastic bottle, scissors and a lighter
Instructions
Step 1
For a round plastic can, cut off the bottom at a height of 2-3 cm from the bottom edge. You will see that groove lines diverge from the center point to the edges at the bottom of the bottle - carefully cut these lines without reaching the center. You have made a blank for the petals of the future flower. There should be ten sectors in total.
Step 2
Cut each of the future petals additionally from the edge, cutting out two narrow strips from each petal, which will become the stamens of the flower. Leave the petal itself in its place, and lift the stamens up. After all the petals are cut, and you have a whole bunch of narrow strips of plastic in the center of the workpiece, bend these strips inward.
Step 3
Use sharp scissors to process the edges of the petals - cut off sharp corners, give the petals a rounded and graceful shape. Now take colored acrylic paints on glass and ceramics and paint the flower with a brush, choosing different shades for the petals and stamens.
Step 4
Heat the stamens over a lighter or candle flame to melt the plastic a little and bend over. You can also heat the edges of the petals to give them a characteristic curve.
Step 5
You can vary the shape of the petals as you wish - it can be either round or pointed. Experiment with the shape of the flower, the length of the stamens and the color of their coloring - by making a few flowers, you can decorate the house in an unusual way.
