Flower pot-planter from a plastic bucket

Greetings to you, dear readers of the channel Sergeyevich master!

And here's a flower pot from a plastic bucket that we have made with their own hands, and we hasten to share with you.

Request to those who are all easier to buy, go and buy, do not waste your time on this article, leave it to those who are interested. thanks

Flower pot do not complicated, and I believe that each of you can cope with its manufacturer. If you want, you can apply both pots, for example.

For the manufacture of pot materials needed:

· A small plastic bucket;

· Knitted fabric (suitable old things);

· Hot glue;

· Sandpaper, stationery knife, brushes;

· White spirit or solvent;

· Acrylic paints;

· Cardboard tray of eggs;

· Acrylic lacquer.

Step 1.

In a plastic bucket with a knife cut the bureaucratic upper part (rim). Do not throw the lid, it still is useful. Emery paper passes around a bucket and wipe with mineral spirits.

Step 2.

White acrylic paint to paint the bucket, using a piece of sponge. This will be the primer layer.

Step 3.

Knitted fabric cut into strips about 4-5 cm wide and 30-40 cm long, depending on the size of the bucket, which you will use. A little stretch of the strip.

Step 4.

Take 6 knitted strips and begin to stick to the bucket. Paste around, do overlap and plait two braids. The tips of braids leave different lengths and glue, too.

Step 5.

From bands to curl cylinder and glue them on the ends of braids.

Step 6.

Egg tray cut out a couple of flowers, and glue them to the center of the cylinder of fabric pasted. Flower glue on the bucket.

Just out of the tray and cut a few leaves of the same glue.

Step 7.

All colors of gray acrylic paint.

We do not buy acrylic paint of different colors, and do it yourself. Just add color the white paint of the desired color and everything.

When the gray paint has dried, the method of "dry brush" paint blue.

In the same way it takes a little white paint.

Step 8.

Pot cover acrylic lacquer into 2 layers.

The cover of the bucket, too beautiful as a pot - it will stand. Do not forget to make a hole in the bottom of the water. And if you're using as plant pots, the holes are not required.

Here is ready to flower pot.
