We tear off, wash off stickers and labels.
Sometimes they are so sticky that you have to use acetone solvents, etc.
we take a VERY soft pencil - I have 8B, not just a simple one, but for artistic drawing
We draw a line along which we will cut:
this is a side view
this is a front view
take a sharp knife
Carefully cut along the drawn line
We cut any irregularities with scissors
now we need to eat.
We drank ayranchik, washed the bottles - cute, right?
Cut off the neck and bottom
found a stapler and a hole punch in a desk drawer (one hole is more convenient)
stapled together the cylinders cut from ayran bottles
artistically pierced the edge of our ... what turns out….
inserted our ... inside. well, what happened earlier ...
We do not attach to the base - it is more convenient - if anything, you can get it out, wash it out, shake it out, etc.
the design is soft and flexible - it is more convenient to cram all sorts of differences than in hard, hard glasses
likewise with a white bottle of bleach
And voila !!!
convenient organizer cups for all kinds of sewing, knitting and art tools!
But here's the problem!
There is such an interesting design!
I pondered over it…. I cut a little more….
And even hooked her on the handle of the kitchen drawer ....
ATTENTION! Question:
and what else is there to figure out useful from all that is left ?! :))
And you think - that's all?…. No, that's not all….
Now we will put things in order in the household closet with larger tools (perhaps not our own, but those of our husband's ... But - with someone like ...).
This time we are VERY sorry to throw out the large bottles that have been freed up from under the PERWOLL washing gel (not a bad product, by the way. I like it).
They are of 3 types: for black, for white and for colored linen. I especially like the bottle for color - I have a weakness for all shades of turquoise ... 😉
But let's get started:
We wash off all labels using various solvents (see part 1)
Draw a cutting line for everything unnecessary
view from the other side
and on the other
cut with a sharp knife, similar to what was done in part 1.
this one too
here's what happened.
Cut irregularities with scissors
NOW we stuff hacksaws, hammers, pliers (this into one), adhesives, solvents, other chemicals in bottles and vials (into another)
And everything else is in the third!
And we put it on the shelf in the household closet - nice and convenient: took it by the handle, pulled it out of the closet - and use the set of what is in this organizer bottle !!!
And the remains…. we use it as a scoop for the earth when transplanting indoor plants.
Well, who needs it - and for cat litter;)).
And I carry the bottle cap to my colleagues in the disease - they use it to decorate bouquets of sweets
Well, they also consoled their souls by not throwing away the beautiful bottles, but adapting them to business.
And at the same time, nature was saved from littering.
I still have some large plastic bottles from under washing gels….
Here is a list of materials and tools. We will need:
- a plastic canister from any detergents (for dishes, for washing, etc.)
- primer (suitable for plastic) and white acrylic enamel
- paper napkin with a beautiful plot
- glue for decoupage and acrylic varnish
- soft pencil, scissors, knife, brushes or sponge for applying paint, glue and varnish
- threads are thick and soft or string, or you can use some kind of braid.
I use just such a canister - about 5-6 liters in volume. It contained dishwashing liquid - inexpensive from the Polish Auchan.
i cut off the top in a rough way, outline the shape of the top edge. I use a very soft artistic pencil - it draws well on plastic (I wrote more about it in one of my previous MK on this topic).
i cut off the top edge along the marked line
outline future pens
cut holes-handles
that's what happens.
Then I thoroughly wash the future basket - from the remnants of labels and other contaminants, degrease the entire surface and primer it with a primer from their hardware store (I used a special primer with superadhesive properties - for plastic, metal and other non-absorbent materials). I do not give a photo, because bought it several years ago, the assortment in stores in different cities and countries is different and changes over time. I think you can find some similar primer. On top of the primer there is a layer of acrylic enamel (also building enamel, for metal and plastic).
and then - decoupage: a napkin with a bouquet. I transferred it to the canister using a file (I think the decoupage women know this technology and there is no point in describing it in detail). Two identical bouquets - one on each side. After the glue dries, I applied 2 layers of acrylic semi-gloss varnish.
i was afraid that the paint would still be peeled off on the handles - I wrapped it with thick synthetic threads. I would like to be lighter, but I used what was at hand.
That's all the wisdom - in my opinion, it turned out nicely.
I use a knitting basket - balls from it unwind well.

Do not rush to throw away the used plastic container, because you can still find useful use for it. In a new review, the author has collected the most interesting and practical examples of what else you can use unnecessary plastic bottles for.
1. Decoration in a nautical style
To create a unique nautical-style jewelry, you need a small plastic or glass bottle, which should be filled with plain water and the attributes of the seabed: sand, shells, large pearl-like beads, coins, shiny beads and glass shards. When all the ingredients are folded, add a drop of blue food coloring, a few drops of vegetable oil and some glitter into the bottle. It remains only to screw the cork well and the stunning decoration is ready.

Simple manipulations will allow you to turn an unnecessary canister of milk or juice into a convenient stand for books, newspapers and magazines.

To get started, simply cut off the bottlenecks and mark the future cuts. You can cut a variety of decorative items from colored paper or fabric, such as eyes, teeth, and ears, and attach them to bottles with super glue. The finished products are best attached to the wall using double-sided tape.

Cut plastic bottles are perfect for creating adorable storage containers for makeup brushes, makeup, ear sticks, and more.
7. Poof
From a large number of plastic containers, you can make a charming pouf, the creation process of which is quite simple and straightforward. First, you need to make a circle from plastic bottles of the same height and secure it with tape. The resulting structure must be well wrapped with a sheet of expanded polyethylene, securing all joints with tape. The base of the ottoman is ready, it remains only to sew a suitable cover for it.
8. Bracelets
Plastic bottles are an excellent base for creating original bracelets. Use fabric, thread, leather, and any other material to decorate unsightly plastic backing.

Continuing the theme with your own hands.
The cardboard boxes in which the detergent is sold have the unpleasant property of getting soaked. And when washing, splashes, puddles on the floor and the need to take a pack with wet hands cannot be avoided. The powder in a soggy pack is stored worse - sticks together into lumps, dries to the walls and bottom. We found a more convenient way to store it by pouring it into an empty bubble bath bottle. How we did it and what we achieved by it, we will tell further.
Operating procedure
1. We will pour the powder from a standard pack weighing 400 g into a vacated plastic bottle from under the foam for baths with a capacity of 750 ml.
It has a screw cap with a narrow opening and a protective top. This small hole will serve as a great dispenser when very little powder is needed. If you need to pour more of it, the lid can be unscrewed. If spray gets into the narrow neck of the bottle, it is very rare. Puddles on the floor and wet hands are not at all scary to him. So the powder will be much better preserved here.
2. Remove the sticker from the bottle.
3. It remains to pour the powder.
If there is a suitable funnel, then little is left. We are faced with the fact that the powder does not want to pour into the funnel for liquids - the grains stick to the inner surface of the neck and instantly clog it. Therefore, we have built our own disposable funnel of a more suitable design for us. For this we needed a square of thick paper measuring about 12 by 12 cm, scotch tape and scissors.
We fold bags out of paper. In the middle of the height, we glue it around with a strip of tape so that it does not come apart.
Cut the lower end of the bag obliquely.
4. Insert the funnel into the neck of the bottle.
Pour the powder. We screw on the lid.
5. So it is more convenient to store the washing powder and use it when washing.
