Useful hobby: making flowers from bottles
The stems
First, we prepare the grounds for flowers. To do this, we cut the entire bottle in a spiral - from the neck to the base. Interrupt the spiral is not necessary, just cut in a circle, turning the bottle. We will get a very long strip of plastic. It needs to be heated and turned into sufficiently stable stems. Heated stalk can be twisted to make something like an icicle. Flowers from bottles on such stems will look very pretty. Do not forget to only choose a bottle of green.
Chrysanthemums
Let's start our flower bouquet with these flowers, because it's very easy to make them. Take an empty bottle of the right color, cut it with "noodles" from the bottom to the neck. Now you need to twist this thread into a flower style. You may need to heat again. For this purpose, an ordinary candle is suitable. The center of the finished flower looks empty. We will insert into it another similar twisted blank for density and volume. If you do not have a bottle of the right color, then you can always color the finished flower. It is best to use paint in aerosols. You can also cover the flower with mother of pearl and decorate with sequins to create a brilliant effect.
Carnation
For these flowers, we need to cut a circle from the bottle and cut it into petals. Then it's still easier and more creative. Using a candle, heat the petals and wrap them nicely. Note that the plastic heats up very quickly, and you can get burned. Use tweezers or gloves. You will need tweezers for other masterpieces, so we recommend you buy it if you intend to do it seriously. If you are just interested in the answer to the question of how to make a flower from a bottle, then, as you can see, it's quite simple.

We fix them together with glue, and in the center we will insert a beautiful bead or rhinestones. Our flower is ready. It can be painted with a special paint from the can, no one will guess that such are flowers from bottles.
