There are many recycling ideas that can turn into real works of art. Plastic containers and especially bottles can have various reuses.
Plastic is very easy to work with. It can be cut easily with scissors and very carefully, using the flame of a candle, it is possible to round the edges that could in some way hurt us.
We will see that it takes very little to create an amazing composition with plants never seen before, using a simple plastic bottle and just a little soil.
The recycling that everyone likes that gives a touch of green to the apartment
Over the years, we’ve all seen tutorials where people tried to transform a plastic container, such as a bottle, into various objects. Lamp holders, various containers, lanterns and so on are on the agenda when it comes to reusing plastic or other materials.
This latest trend is definitely for lovers of greenery and for sure beats all previous proposals. It is a question of creating a very special and suspended vase in just 3 minutes. So a couple of punches of soil will suffice, our favorite drooping succulent and that’s it.
This type of vase, Unlike the others, it will be completely covered by the plant which will become a real sagging green sphere. An idea that is not only innovative, but also very decorative that will really surprise everyone.
A plastic bottle is enough to create a surprising composition never seen before with plants
The first thing to do is to cut the plastic bottle in two, preferring the part of the bottle with the cap. With the help of a hot gun, without the wax candle, melt the plastic in many places by creating small holes that will form the housing of the plants.
Be careful not to overdo the diameter of the hole, but take into account the thickness of the plant. Otherwise, the hole being large will inevitably cause some soil to fall out every time it is watered. Do not forget to also make the holes to be able to insert a U hook or a wire to hang the vase.
After piercing our plastic container, pour the soil and insert the many twigs of the succulent plant that we would like to grow in our wonderful pot.
Here is an ideal example, a cascade of spectacular pink flowers with a very hardy succulent perfect for gardens and balconies. But there are many plants suitable for this kind of composition, like the plant delosperma, mesembriantemo or also aptenia cordifolia.
