A practical solution - vases from the tire on its own!

Create a practical flower vase At the dacha can be from improvised materials. Old tires will come in handy: spacious vases from the tire refresh the look of the suburban area. They can be painted in any color and installed on a small piece of land. Vases from automobile tires can be made by hand, but this will require physical strength.

So, we need:

• Tire from the car. Rubber from trucks is not good, because it is much thicker and heavier, so cut out of it will be very difficult.
• Large sharpened scissors and sharp knife.
• Chalk for contouring.
• Gloves.

In addition to the inventory, physical strength and caution are still needed when working with a knife.

Everyone who decided to make vases from a tire should handle the knife very carefully while working. When dealing with a sharp object, there is always a chance to get hurt. Therefore, precautions will not interfere. It is better to take a knife with a comfortable handle. And in the process of working it is desirable to use dense gloves.

The old tire is cleaned of dirt and allowed to dry. If your farm does not have one, visit any tire shop. There you will be happy to give a whole mountain of tires, and thank you. Choose the one that is cleaner and not too worn out.

So, let's get started! Using a knife, cut the side surface of the tire (on one side). Cut it around the edge of the tread with a pattern. It is from this part that the curly edges or "petals" of the future vase will be cut out.

Now on this place we are applying chalk contours of the future petals. Gently cut the rubber along the intended line. If this process caused difficulties, then the knife is not sharpened enough. In such a situation, it's a good idea to have a sharpener or replaceable knives on hand. The first petal is the most difficult. Having mastered it, you can grab a ready-made petal and cut it, stretching the rubber a little. On a hot summer day, this procedure will be easier, since the rubber becomes softer from heating.

When the last petal is cut, it remains only to unscrew our vase. You can stop at this, or you can dream: decorate the vase with a stand, painting, decorative elements. To make it clear how to make a flowerpot from a tire, below is a photo.

Depending on what kind of rubber you had (with or without a disc), you can get an ordinary low pot or a vase on a stand. Having mastered this simple technique, you can decorate the courtyard at home quite well. Vases from the tire look very colorful and aesthetic if they are painted with paints for outdoor work. Preliminary it is necessary to degrease the surface. After all, on the inside (as you remember, the tire needs to be turned out) dirt and waste substances no less than outside. In order not to get dirty, old brushes and thinner can be used. If your flowerpots from the tires soon become flower beds, then there is no need to paint the vase from the inside.

This concludes the process! All the most difficult behind, there are nice little things - choosing a place for a flower bed from a tire, laying a soil, sowing seeds or planting seedlings. Such a garden ornament is a real find for lovers of annual flowers. After all, the annuals are nowhere to be planted after the whole vegetable garden has been sown with vegetable crops. The vase can always be attached to the corner of the garden or at the porch.
