4. Milk Bottle Flower Heart
[su_box title=”Bugs” style=”noise” box_color=”#d6dede” title_color=”#2f072c” radius=”2″]
With this project we collected plastic milk bottles which would have otherwise ended up in the trash and eventually on a landfill site.
Some brands of milk use bottles that have very sticky labels that are hard to remove, and others have bottles that have ridges up the sides. Look for the milk bottles have labels that are very easy to remove and a large flat central section in the bottle, which is what we primarily use in our recycling crafts.
Step 1: Use your craft knife to cut the recycled milk bottles: You will need to cut each milk bottle twice, going right around the bottle.
The first cut should go around the bottom (approx. 3cm from the base) and the second cut just lower than the handle. You should be left with a very thick centre piece of the plastic milk bottle, which should be approx. 10cm in width. The easiest is to first make a small hole using a craft knife and then insert the scissors and snip it all the way around recycled plastic.
Step 2: Once you have cut out a whole bunch of central strips from your milk bottles, cut these once across the width in a straight line so that you have thick strips of recycled plastic, instead of ovals.
Step 3: Find a selection of flower and petal designs. Find a few different designs with various petal structures and cut a few sizes of each using a scissors. You can copy flower designs from a kids’ colouring-in book, or you could even draw your own basic designs.
Step 4: Trace these designs onto your milk bottle strips. You will need a lot of cut-out flower shapes – we are going to stack these on top of each other to create a 3D flower, so aim for about 5 flower cut-outs per 3D flower for the recycled milk bottle flower heart.
Step 5: Once you have cut out a whole bunch of flower designs from your milk bottles, mix and match them, one on top of the other to create a raised, 3D flower. Use a hot glue gun to assemple each flower. Repeat the process until you have many raised flowers.
Step 6: Paint the wooden board using your red paint PVA and paintbrush, and then leave to dry.
Step 7: Once the board is dry, use a pencil to very lightly draw the outline of the heart.
Step 8: Place your flowers around the edge of the pencilled heart. Using a glue gun, glue them into place, making sure that none of the pencil outline is visible.
Step 9: Once you have completed the outer edge of your heart, you can then fill in the inside of the heart using your pre-made flowers and the glue gun. Try to cover all the red on the inside of the heart so that the entire heart is a striking white.
Step 10: Once the entire heart design is complete, the recycled flower heart is complete and ready to make a statement at your wedding. As another idea, why not make this as a wedding gift for a friend – the upcycled heart would make a stunning addition to any home!
5. Candle Sleeve Magic

We make the test; present our own to you, and after that, you interface up yours! Search for the connection up coming up straight away!
Each host will pick our very own top choices to include amid the following month’s NEW test. Seem like fun?? Well it is! It’s an incredible method to reuse and make.
This month is soft drink container or milk container. I picked two liter soft drink/seltzer bottles. I drink a ton of plain seltzer (bravo soft drink) I needed to make a nursery, however I didn’t have enough containers. I’ll take a shot at that over the new year.
Points To Be Consider:
- I cut a 2 liter jug into three sections.
- The top, centre and base.
- At that point, I swiped a Christmas napkin and isolated it to utilize the printed part.
- Slicing the printed part to fit the center segment of the jug, enough to overlay over the top and the base of the plastic, I utilized Gloss Mod Podge to join it.
- I didn’t fuss over the wrinkles as much as the ones all over. I needed it to have character, similar to me.
- At that point painted on the Mod Podge over the whole napkin (on the overlay overs and outwardly). At that point strolled around with it on my arm to dry all morning….
- Simply KIDDING! I put it on a cooler pack to dry. The printed area of the napkin is extremely fragile and tears simple. I really fizzled my first endeavor attempting to smooth the napkin. Attempting cautiously to mod podge and setting down was a triumph the second time.
- Presently the soft drink bottle part is a flame sleeve! When it dried, I set it over my flame.
- Likewise with any light, never abandon it unattended! I had this consuming for about an hour without issues and watched it intently. This is a glass contained flame. I would not prescribe utilizing only a flame and a sleeve in light of the fact that the plastic would clearly liquefy.
- I can see this light sleeve decoupaged on with any pretty printed napkin, or vintage papers, duplicates of photographs, blessing wrap paper, stamps, trim, tissue papers, or anyway you want. Could you likewise observe this strategy utilized for wedding gathering tables? I can. Extraordinary table highlight thought without a gigantic expense.
- Play around with it!
- Pause! Shouldn’t something be said about the other two pieces of the jug?
- The top makes a helpful channel!
- I moved my paint into a cleaned clothing bottle; painted the front of it with the shading; marked it with date and room where I utilized it and now it’s prepared to fill the roller search for gold next time!
- What’s more, that paint can? It’s plastic. So I washed it out and now have a nail pail for those enormous nailing employments like a rooftop, shed surrounding, deck building, and so on.
- I just reused a soft drink bottle, a clothing bottle and a paint can. What a shabby thrill!!!!
- Gracious, nearly overlooked, the base area of the soft drink bottle is a pleasant little glass. I put my gems in it at the sink while I washed the paint can.
- Try not to go yet, I have another! The young ladies are going to snicker at me over this. They generally attempt to get me to one thing constantly yet I escape. Must be a hyper issue.
- I like the shade of this 2 liter soft drink jug and chose to make a hanging toy box for my parrot.
- She is a functioning winged animal, as those of you who have one know, keeping her glad and engaged can be high upkeep. She has loads of toys. I needed to put some of them in a perfect detect that she approaches and this was an ideal thought.
- First I penetrated gaps in the base of the jug. (For simple cleaning and channel drying. She can’t get any opportunity of shape or she’ll get respiratory issues. Much the same as us, yet she is increasingly delicate.)
- At that point I cut a substantial gap as an afterthought for simple access to toys.
- I sanded the cut edges smooth and accumulated parts to hang the container.
- I utilized one of her day by day coconut shell parts (I drill a gap to deplete the coconut water, at that point utilize a mallet to break the shell down the middle to make a bowl for her to eat out of each other day. So work was accomplished for me.) I reused a bit up toy by embeddings it through the container top and including the shell over it.
- At that point stuffed a portion of her toys and a couple of nuts inside and draped it on her tree.
- Furthermore, the principal thing she went after is her arm ornament. All things considered, it used to be my armlet that she picked off my wrist. (She is so girly!)
- Like an infant, she will have everything hurled about when she is finished playing with them. Be that as it may, I do like the toy box bottle a great deal!
- OK, there is my 2 liters worth. What might you do with a 2 liter soft drink bottle? Or on the other hand a milk container? I can hardly wait to see you at our first connection up on January second!
