A flower made of plastic is an uncomplicated hand-crafted item that can be made without any problems with your own hands. Most men do not think about it. But with the help of plastic you can make a wonderful hand-crafted article, which for many years will become a symbol of your feelings. Most often used such material for their creation, like plastic from bottles. Recently there are also crafts made of polymer clay with the addition of plastic. But until they are widely distributed, and the creation of products in this case is greatly complicated. Therefore, a plastic flower is usually manufactured in the first way.

Instruments

In the process of work we need a set of the following materials:

• marker;
• scissors;
• The curvilinear;
• Ruler;
• knife;
• Lighter or matches;
• awl.

In addition, glue, tape, paper (preferably with a bright and unusual pattern), wire, paint, heat shrink and plastic bottles of various sizes are useful. All this is better to prepare in advance, so that later in the process of creating such an article as a flower from plastic, do not look for the right material or tool urgently.

Chamomile

The easiest way is to make a daisy from such a container. It is with her that we begin our acquaintance with this craft. We take a tank of any size. We make markings on its surface with the help of a marker and cut out either using a knife or with scissors. In the center of the workpiece, make a hole with an awl. Next, you need to decorate the stem. To do this, we take a piece of wire of the required length. For greater plausibility, you can put heat shrinkage on it and heat up with matches or a cigarette lighter. Alternative option - wrap the tape or cover with paint. The first option is simpler, so it's best to choose it on it.

We make leaves from the rest. From one of the edges we make a puncture with an awl. In this hole we wind the wire and screw it to the stem. For greater plausibility, we cover it with green paint. We put on one end of the stem daisy. Fix it with glue and make out. You can use bright paper or a set of colors. After decorating, the camomile is ready. Any craft can be made of plastic. For colors this statement is more than just.

rose flower

It is a little more difficult to make a rose from such material. The technology of creating the stem and its leaves is similar, we will not concentrate on it. But the rosebud is made as follows. Cut the strips from the cylindrical part of the container. Their width should gradually increase. The smallest of them should be 2.5-3 cm. Further it is recommended to increase them in 0.5 cm increments. Then the edge of the widest strip is processed with a cigarette lighter or matches. At the same time with the help of pliers, it bends in one direction. Then this workpiece is twisted in a spiral and fixed with wire or tape. In the next step, take that strip, which is slightly narrower, and similarly process its edge and spin around the first part of the bud, which was made earlier. Do this operation until all the strips have run out. At the final stage, we connect the bud and the stem. To do this, cut out a small cone from the rest of the bottle. We wind it around the bud and fix it with scotch tape. We cut the other end of it and put it on the stem. We fix it with the help of all the same scotch tape. At the final stage, decorate it. A flower made of plastic is ready.
