Tell us your secret
Why don't you call
Even if you move your head,
Then you bow from the wind,
Then you will hide from the sun.

Empty plastic bottles white must be carefully cut in half. The basis of the flowers will be the cone-shaped narrow part bottles with caps.
Markings are applied to the part used using a marker, according to which the petals should be cut. All petals need to be bent outward using scissors, which will give the flowers a more natural and attractive look.
For attachment to stems, a pair of holes are made in the cork for a wire connection. It is advisable to make holes with a soldering iron.
By means of wire, all manufactured flowers must be secured to stems, which are used as metal rods.
Metal stems should be wrapped with green tape.
From the green ones bottles cut out several leaves that we attach to the stem bells.

Hello. Today, I suggest you take a look at the master class on decorating plastic bottles. Autumn is just around the corner, and the settings are beautiful.
Everything is very simple! Working time is 3 hours. Materials for crafts: 1.5 liter transparent plastic bottle, 5 brown plastic bottles.
Decoupage(from the French découper - “to cut out”) is a way of decorating objects by gluing on them various motifs or images cut out of paper and suitable to the artist’s artistic intent. Using the decoupage technique, you can create things of stunning beauty! It could be something completely new - for example, a New Year's toy in the form of a bell made from a plastic bottle. Having created such a thing yourself, you can present it to friends and family as an interesting gift.
Materials and tools
1. Preparing the mold for the toy
From any plastic bottle (carbonated drink, milk, etc.) we cut off the top part about 14-15 cm long with scissors.
2. Preparing the surface for decoupage.
It is better to degrease the surface of the bottle before starting work. Simply wipe with a cloth or napkin, sprinkling the surface with any alcohol-containing substance (both vodka and glass washing liquid are suitable). After this, apply acrylic primer in two layers. After applying each layer, dry thoroughly. You can speed up this process with a hair dryer.
The first layer of primer can be applied with a wide flat brush, and the second layer can be applied using tamping movements with a regular dishwashing sponge. After drying, the primer can be sanded with sandpaper, after which another layer of primer can be applied, so we will achieve greater smoothness.
3.Coloring with background color.
After the primer has dried, we cover our form with acrylic paint of the background color (our color is blue). Apply two layers, allowing each layer to dry.
4.Preparing napkins.
We cut out the desired motifs from decoupage napkins. Separate the excess layers of paper.
Note! Typically, napkins for decoupage are two- or three-layer. For gluing, we only need the topmost, colorful layer of the napkin.
5. Gluing the napkin.
We apply the top layer of the napkin to the place where, according to our plan, the design should be located and coat the top with decoupage glue from the center to the edges. Let it dry. The glue saturates the napkin and the image is firmly fixed on the jar.
Note! This gluing method, the simplest, is suitable for decorating small surfaces and gluing small design elements. For gluing large surfaces, the most commonly used method is transferring a napkin to the surface through a plastic film.
6. Protective varnish coating.
To protect the surface we apply acrylic varnish.
7. Additional decor.
We dip the bottom edge of the bottle into a prepared container with boiled salt to give an edge in the form of frost.

Everyone who has a summer cottage or yard tries to decorate the territory with all kinds of decorative figures, statues, ponds, fountains, and alpine slides. They build beautiful fences, benches, create fancy paths and install lanterns along them. Many of these options are suitable for making the landscape picturesque. One of the simple and affordable ways to decorate a site is with bright and beautiful bells made from plastic bottles.
Such flowers will transform an ordinary garden, attract attention, and delight with their beauty. Bells are also perfect for decorating the areas of kindergartens and playgrounds; they can beautify the area near entrances.
A huge plus is that the materials used for manufacturing are strong and durable. They are not afraid of temperature changes, rain, snow. Such beauty will delight you for a very long time.
Variety of shapes
The size of bells made from plastic bottles should be selected depending on the location of the flowers. If they will be located over a large area and will occupy a central place on it, then large bottles will be great. Such a large structure will look very attractive.
If the flowers are located in a small area, among plants, then it needs to be made more compact. Such flowers are located along the paths. In this case, bells from small bottles on thin, not too spreading stems will look beautiful.
Plastic flower bushes will not only decorate your garden, but will also bring benefits. Attach cores to the center of each flower, for example, from yellow-painted disposable cups or plastic yellow cases from children's chocolate eggs. Or attach leaves along the entire stem in addition to flowers. Such flowers will make noise. Place these bells near fruit trees. Their benefit is that they will scare away birds, which often spoil the harvest.

A flower bed can be made from old car tires. A small, neat decorative fence around flowers looks great. You can lay out large cobblestones, wild stones, or decorate the flowerbed with plastic bottles painted in bright colors.
Materials for stems
The stems are made from durable rods or thin plastic pipes. The pipes can be left equal or bent in an arc. To give the pipes a green color, you will need to paint them or wrap them with green insulating tape.
An excellent replacement for pipes would be a rigid garden hose. Watering hoses that match the color are available for sale, as in the photo below. They are ideal for making stems for bells. To make the structure stronger, before digging the hoses into the ground, it is worth placing thin reinforcement or a metal rod inside.
On a note! It does not have to be the same as the stem; half its length will be enough.
Also suitable for the stem is a wooden strip, to which bottle caps are screwed using screws. It is better to make such a structure tall and place it in the garden, among lush bushes.
Another material for creating stems is metal rods or very stiff wire.
Thin strips are cut from a green plastic bottle. Then, heating the plastic over a fire, the strips are twisted in a spiral around the rod.
Bells attached to a spreading branch that has been pre-painted look interesting and original.
For stability, the bells need to be dug deeper into the ground. If the stems are made from reinforcement or rods, then their bases can be welded to a heavy metal platform.
Shapes and colors
To give the flower a natural look, it is better to reduce the size of the bells closer to the tip of the stem. This can be done by reducing the length of the flower itself or using smaller bottles.
You can make the shape of the flowers the way you like. The edges are cut rounded or sharp. Bend it outward and twist it a little, or leave it in its original form. Depending on the shape of the bottle, the bells will have a different appearance.
