Dahlia flowers with waste water bottles!

This craft is easy to make with waste plastic water bottles or any cool drink bottles. Click here to read my Video tutorial: Dahlia flowers with water bottles!

Materials used:

Plastic water bottles

Paints, Scissors

Glue gun/instant glue

Floral tape, Wire

Description:

Cut the bottle in to two half.

Cut the top part of the bottle like flower petals with sharp edges. If we cut with sharp edges, we can get extra sharp pieces. Keep them aside to make green calyx.

Cut the remaining bottle into petals of 3 different sizes - lager size petals to make outer layer; medium size petals; and smaller petals for inner layer.

Fix the petals from smaller to larger, from inner to outer side of the cap, using hot glue gun or instant glue.

Paint the inner petals with yellow and remaining with your favorite floral color.

For making stem, take a thick wire, wrap a small paper strip at one end and apply glue and fix with the center of the bottom cap.

Wrap the floral tape around the cap and the whole wire.
Cut leaves shape and fix the leaves and calyx around the wire and cap. Paint the calyx and leaves.

Do 3-6 flowers to make a flower vase.

Insert the flower into a bottle or vase filled with clay or sand.

A beautiful flower vase is ready now.... Try this craft at your home and comment your feedback. Thank you...!

Materials used:

 Empty bottles

Scissor

Dry sticks

Glue gun

Paints

Method:

First cut the bottle into two half, as shown in picture. For making flower cut the upper part into 5-6 petals. Bend the petals downwards to get a good shape.

For making center bud, cut another bottle as above and again cut and remove the neck portion of its upperpart. Now we have the upperpart looks like a funnel without neck. Now, cut the funnel in cross section to make it flat and with that, cut again the flat shape into 8-9 petals and fold and roll up to get a bud shape.

Show the petals in candlelight so that the petals can shrink and bend slightly. Then, apply glue on the bottom of the bud and on the inner side of the neck cap, then insert the bud into the flower neck part.

Paint the flower petals with the color of your choice.

After the paints get dried, insert the flower onto the tip of the dry stick, and apply glue to fix the stick and flower properly.

Cut the remaining lower part of the bottle in leaf shapes, then paint in green color and glue with the stem. Do as many as needed, hold them together and insert into the long white color plastic bottle (decorate the vase as you wish) filled with clay or sand.

Flower vase is ready now! Try this at your home and give your feedbacks. Thank you...!!!
