Milk Bottle Flower Garland
I am always looking for materials to use for crafts. One of those materials that we have en masse in our home presently is the plastic from th emilk bottles we buy.
I discovered how easy it actually was to work with this material – to cut, to draw on them with permanent markers, bend it and tape them together.
So here is the newest addition to our milk bottle crafts:
Hattifant’s Flower Garland!
And here is how it’s done:
You’ll need:
- template
- milk bottle material
- scissors
- pencil and permanent markers (and if you have silver paint marker)
- mounting tape (to put pieces together)
- thread and needle
Here in Bangkok, I got hold of these 2 liter big containers. Helpful for this mobilé are flat sides!
Download and print out the template. Cut out pieces and outline it with pencil or permanent marker on the milk bottle.
Cut out all pieces!
Colour in to your liking…
Tape pieces together. I used Mounting Tape – it last and pieces stick out a tiny bit more hence bigger 3D effect.
With your needle put little holes into flowers and connect them with the thread (I used fishing line here).
And you have your own Flower Garland! Yeah!
