Description

Recycling plastic bottles to make small boxes is a great way to reuse materials and create useful objects. This tutorial provides a step-by-step breakdown of how to cut and assemble the bottles to create practical storage boxes. The tutorial covers the materials needed, the cutting technique and tips on how to ensure the boxes are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

Matériaux
  • Empty plastic bottle
  • Bottle cap of the same size as the chosen bottle
Outils
  • Scissors or cutter
  • Strong glue or hot glue gun

Preparation of the bottles

Wash and dry plastic bottles thoroughly.

Cutting

Use scissors or a cutter to cut off the neck of the bottle, to get the top part we're interested in. The top must fit over the cap. If necessary, cut a narrow strip around the opening to allow the lid to fit properly.

Gluing

Using the glue, place the glue on the inside of the cork, and carefully place the cork at the bottom of the neck of the bottle. Leave the glue to dry completely.

Final result

And voila, you've got a little box that you can use to store cosmetics and other products.
