To make them, you will need yellow bottles for drinks (1, 5 or 2 liters) or ordinary transparent containers and yellow acrylic paint. You will also need wire, an awl and black paint. Progress of work: first you need to cut flower petals from plastic containers. For convenience, you can make a pattern out of paper, apply it to plastic and trace the contours. Thus, all the petals will be the same beautiful shape. If you use a transparent bottle, after cutting the blanks, you will need to apply yellow paint to them. After making a sufficient number of petals (there may be 10, 20 or more - depending on how "splendor" you want to get a flower), you need to make small holes at their base with an awl. Further, a wire is inserted and fixed into the holes, through which all the blanks are connected into a single structure. To make the center of the flower, you can use the figured bottom of the bottle, pre-painted with black acrylic paint.

After fastening the petals and the bottom, it will be necessary to make a stem out of wire (which can be decorated with thick paper or cloth), cut out leaves from green plastic and connect all parts of the plant. In the same way, a few more sunflowers are made out, and that's all - a chic bouquet of cheerful flowers is ready. Now you know how to make a flower out of plastic bottles and wire.

Make flowers from plastic bottles and beads for your garden

We offer you another way to make decorative plastic jewelry. To complete this work, you will need materials such as:

• plastic bottles (clear 7pcs, green 6pcs);



• scissors;
• PVA glue and "Moment";

How to make a flower out of plastic bottles: first, let's make 42 stamens and 7 pistils from green beads and beads. For stamens, a wire 25 cm long is used, on which a bead is strung. The wire is bent in half, and blue beads (19 pieces) are strung on its two ends. For the pestle, a wire 25 cm long is taken, and a bead is strung on it. Then the wire is bent in half, and green beads (22 pieces) are strung on its two ends. To make one flower, you need 6 stamens and 1 pistil. In the same way, we make another 41 stamens and 6 pistils. After completing this work, we take the pestle and attach it to a wire about 20 cm long, fixing it with threads and PVA glue, and then attach 6 stamens to it, evenly distributing them around it. Now let's start making petals. We cut off the upper part of the transparent bottles, which we will use to form the cup of the plant. We cut each blank into 6 equal strips towards the neck. We round each strip, cutting off excess corners so as to get six beautiful petals. We process the petals over the candle flame, giving them a natural, rounded shape. Now you know how to make a flower out of plastic bottles, and you see that there is nothing difficult about it! To complete the work, it remains only to attach the pistil with stamens inside the bud and color the flower petals in yellow and red. If desired, you can make a stem out of wire and decorate it with green electrical tape, and leaves out of green plastic bottles.
