Decorate the cottage area with bright crafts is a great idea, especially if you have small children. However, for myself, I would like to create something beautiful and original with my own hands, so that the garden pleases the eye. After all, in addition to work, we have a lot of rest in the country, so we must be surrounded by the beautiful.
Simple crafts made of plastic bottles for cottages
In the process of consuming various drinks, dairy products and water, we still have a lot of plastic bottles, from which we can make crafts for the country. For example, here are such beautiful ever-blooming chamomiles.
For the craft, we need 3 opaque white plastic bottles for dairy products, a yellow or orange lid and scissors. First we cut the bottles as in the photo. Try to take bottles with approximately the same width at the neck, so that they can later well be harvested into each other.
Next, two bottles need to cut the neck. We will receive blanks for our future chamomiles.
Now cut the daisy petals, leaving a small gap between them. We round off the petals and slightly bend upwards.
We put on a bottle with a neck of the workpiece with cut off necks and bend the petals.
We screw the lid on the neck and spread out all the petals well, until the craft does not look like a real chamomile.

That's all! Our daisies are ready to settle in the garden and decorate it with their flowering all year round.
Other crafts from plastic bottles for cottages - a master class
No less simple manufacture of crafts from plastic bottles for cottages - pendant pots for petunias and other bright flowers. They can be hung on a veranda or on a tree branch in the garden. They look very colorful and cute.
For this craft, you will need bottles, preferably with a flat bottom, bright cloth flaps, decorative elements for your taste, glue gun, scissors, clerical knife, PVA glue, brush, wire, punch, lace. First you need to cut the bottles to the desired height, cover with glue and decorate with a bright cloth.
Then complement the decoration with decorative fringe or other elements. Using a punch hole, pierce the holes under the ribbons for suspension, thread them into the holes and adjust the length. After the craft has dries, you can fill it with earth and plant flowers. Do not forget to pre-drill holes in the bottoms, as most flowers do not tolerate moisture stagnation in the pot.
Decorate the bottle, which acts as a pot, in any other way. For example, to grow a clown on his head is such a wig. Such an occupation will be very interesting and cognitive for kids - they will observe with curiosity how a green plant grew from sown seeds in the ground.
For the clown's head, we need the bottom of a plastic bottle, a few bright caps, eyes, earth and seeds.
Crafts for cottages from large plastic bottles
Surely you have 5 and 6-liter eggplants from the water in the farm. And we also use them to decorate the country plot. From them you will get very nice piggy flower beds.
In addition to a large bottle, we will need such blanks, tools and materials: 4 bottles of small bottles, ears cut from a plastic bottle, eyes (if you like, you can simply draw them), a brush and a pink paint.
All elements are fastened by heating and melting.
After assembling and painting, our pig looks pretty cute. If you plan to plant flowers in it, you need to cut a hole in the back of the right size and fill it with earth. Such perennial mini-flower beds will decorate your site for many years.
