By tradition, every three weeks I collect several ways beneficial use of plastic bottles in the country and in the garden. Some of them send me mail subscribers, and some I find myself.
From this recycling can make a lot of useful things, but to create some require special skills or tools. For example, there are craftsmen who weave these baskets of plastic "vines". Products obtained durable and light, but it needs to have hands of gold.
In this article, I planted a simple device that can be obtained from plastic bottles without having special skills and special tools. In addition, we will need quite a bit of recycling. It will be quite a few standard bottles.
1. ornamental flowerpot

2. Basket
A large plastic canisters can get great bucket of clothespins, garters and other garden detail. To do this, simply cut off the neck, frame the edge of cloth tape and make a pair of handles.
If this bucket is supposed to store and carry heavy objects (liquid bulk), the handle should be strengthened.
If necessary, plastic residues can be a cover which will protect the contents from rain and moisture.
3. Organizer
For storing holiday detail can make a simple organizer. The size will depend on the number of bottles (branches). The most practical options include 4, 6 or 8 sections.
To create can be used as rectangular cans and bottles of the classic. The basis for our organizer will be the cloth basket, which is made of old curtains or other dense tissue.
you can make a separate pen for each cell. This is especially useful if you keep the nails or screws. In order not to get the contents of your hands, just take out the cell and go to work.
4. Robust tape
Not many know, but from a simple plastic bottle can get up to 7-8 meters of strong and practical tape. Here are just a few features of this product:
