I don't throw away tape spools, five-liter bottles, and flower pots. Here are 3 ideas using these it

1) I started collecting tape spools. I'll show you what beautiful things I can make for the home from them. How to do it? I'm happy to show you! For the box, you need 2 spools. Cut them in half with a utility knife. Cut out 4 strips from cardboard, 10 cm long, matching the height of the spools. These will help extend the box. Attach them with tape to create two ovals. Trace the bottom shape and attach it with tape as well. You will have two identical oval boxes. Place a strip of cardboard 1.5 cm above the edges in one of them. Glue it with PVA glue and secure it tightly with clothespins while it dries. This will be the edge on which the lid sits. Essentially, the box base is ready. I covered it with white A4 paper. After it dried, I did decoupage with a paper napkin. A furniture handle will help give it a vintage look. I used an awl to make holes for the screws and attached the handle. You can make such a box in any technique, style, or form and decorate it in your own way. You can also put a little gift inside and give it to a loved one. 2) Because of the elderly neighbors, I started buying water in five-liter bottles just for the containers. Across the road, there are elderly pensioners, hardworking people. They do everything with their own hands. Their pension is small, so they save on everything. They eat what they grow. From morning till night, they are busy in the yard and garden, always finding something to do, unlike those who complain that they are bored. Cucumbers, tomatoes, apples—they treat us almost every day. Everything is tidy at their place, everything in its place—a good example for the younger generation. Ivan Vasilyevich sometimes asks us for unnecessary empty plastic bottles for his household gadgets. Some of the things he has made are surprising. I've even picked up a few ideas from him. I would have never thought that you could make a sieve from a 5-liter bottle. He has them in different sizes. And indeed, it's convenient to hang such a thing near the tap. Now I wash all my vegetables and fruits in a similar sieve. How to make it: Cut off the bottom part of the bottle at any height, while simultaneously cutting out 2 handles as one piece. Use a soldering iron or a nail to make holes for water. Here's another handy gadget. In their summer kitchen and shed, they have compact hangers for various small items, depending on the space. To make one like that, you need to cut off the top of the bottle. Melt holes for hooks at the bottom. Hooks can be bent from any wire. Now you can hang anything here, ladles in the kitchen, and tools, ropes, brushes in the shed. Another useful item for the yard, slightly improved by me. A roll of paper is attached to a stick. Why not? The ring also comes in handy. It makes a convenient handle for a bag. Ivan Vasilyevich even made a fan from a bottle. If you're interested, I can describe it another time. It's good when people don't complain, don't get lazy, but find their simple important tasks and enjoy what they have.
