Preparing plastic bottles

Remove labels and degrease the surface. For 1.5 liter bottles, cut off  the top  part with the neck. Turn on the iron. Lightly smooth the sharp edges of the cut neck.

Assembling the form

Gather  13  necks into a circle. Fasten them together with a regular paper stapler.

Twist a ring from thick wire. Secure the ends with thinner wire. Attach a wire ring to the necks of the bottle. Use clamps (cable ties) for this.

Next, continue to form a semicircle. In the next row, also secure the bottle necks with a stapler and add another wire ring. Row by row, complete the structure. This is what it should look like if you turn it over. All the space below is filled!

Additionally, secure the bottles inside with several pieces of thin wire – just twist them around the necks. This way the structure will be stronger and more reliable.

 

 

Decor of hanging structure

Let’s move on to the most interesting part – the decor! Paint the structure with spray paint. After drying, it is advisable to apply varnish. Using clamps at equal distances from each other, secure  3  pieces of cord/rope to the top wire ring.

Screw the bottle caps back on. Cut half of the garbage bag and make drainage holes with scissors. Line the inside of the structure with bottles and fill it with soil.

Hang it outside. Plant flowers and water. It turned out just great! Hanging flower pots that look very unusual and beautiful.

Petunias and any flowers that grow in balls will look especially gorgeous! Take this interesting idea from bottles and repeat it for your site.
