Making a butterfly from a plastic bottle with your own hands

More and more often an empty plastic bottle becomes a useful thing: what kind of children's crafts and rather skilful unique ornaments for the house and the infield are not made of it. However, there is nothing surprising, since all these products look very elegant. Particularly valuable is that every little thing, built from a plastic bottle with your own hands, is the only exclusive copy, because it is simply impossible to make two absolutely identical crafts.

It is also noteworthy that decorations for exteriors and interiors, created with the use of this recyclable material, are all-weather: such trees and flowers, for example, can blossom and green in the suburban area in the winter, even in Siberia. But at the same time, you can create something specific for the New Year tree, for example, or by March 8.
So, a butterfly from a plastic bottle, created by its own hands, will bring a special joy and spring mood to the house. And make it surprisingly simple.

In addition to an empty plastic bottle, you will need: paper, scissors, ruler, pencil (or markers), a piece of white lace fabric, waterproof transparent glue and beads with beads.

To create a butterfly from a plastic bottle with your own hands it is enough:

1. Pick up a template for the future insect (to your taste and color) and paint (or print) it on paper.
2. Cut the resulting image and paste it with adhesive tape to a bottle of the appropriate size.
3. Using a scissor along the contour, get the same butterfly from plastic (for convenience, you can draw a paper copy with a felt-tip pen or marker).
4. Now you need to give the workpiece volume (raise the wings of the insect). To do this, using a ruler, you need to carefully make bends on the sides of the butterfly's trunk (it's important not to overdo it, otherwise the plastic will burst, and all efforts will be futile, the product will be irreparably damaged).
5. The main work is done, and to further manufacture the butterfly from a plastic bottle, you need to show your imagination and some designer abilities. First, you need to glue a lace patch to the resulting template, wait for the glue to dry, and cut off excess tissue from the contour.
6. Next, you can decorate the butterfly with beads and beads. Here the flight of fantasy is unlimited. For example, the torso of a butterfly from a plastic bottle can be made with its own hands either from glued beads, and woven from beads, and the wings are painted (sea versions).

It is not bad for a butterfly from a plastic bottle to create from its own material and the flower on which it will sit. If desired, you can make a whole flock of different variegated insects and seat them on exotic plants.

And what beautiful can be candlesticks, plafonds and animals made from this recyclable material ...

How diverse is the assortment of similar products, children's handicrafts also show, with their own hands made of plastic bottles created. Some of them can truly be called masterpieces of creativity of young designers.
