Hello friends and guests of the channel!
A couple of years ago, I made a couple of flowerpots for the garden from large plastic bottles, from 5 and 10 liters. The result is a very interesting and attractive result with a small investment of materials and efforts.
Here's what I needed:
1. Bottles 5 and 10 liters;
2. Marker, sandpaper, knife, scissors;
3. Hot glue;
4. Solvent;
5. Self-tapping screws, screwdriver;
6. Spray paint and varnish.
As you can see, there are not many materials at all. I use automotive paints in spray cans, the cheapest, which cost about 100 rubles per spray can. The varnish is the same.
Step 1.
I cut the bottles into 3 parts, left the upper and lower parts, threw out the middle.
Step 2.
I carefully processed the cut points and the bottles themselves so that the paint lay down better.
Step 3.
Temporarily glued 2 parts of the bottle together with hot glue.
Step 4.
With self-tapping screws, I securely fastened both parts of the future flowerpots. The plastic is soft and the self-tapping screws are quite easy to screw with a straight screwdriver, a screwdriver is not needed.
The flowerpots turned out to be collapsible into 2 parts, they simply unscrew from each other.
Step 5.
I made holes to drain the water using a soldering iron. You can use a heated nail or knife.
Step 6.
He degreased the flowerpots with solvent and painted both black from a spray can.
Step 7.
Using the dry brush method, I painted one pot with bronze paint, the second with silver.
Step 8.
I sprinkled the flowerpots with spray varnish.
Done, these healthy flowerpots turned out literally out of nothing!
And here are some more crafts from plastic bottles, take a look:
