Baskets made from plastic bottles

canasta

Again we bring to our work table, a beautiful, dynamic proposal that allows at the same time that a useful object is made, contribute to the environment, to the recycle Plastic bottles in disuse.

To make these craft plastic baskets, plastic strips must be braided, which are obtained from empty soda bottles. The way to do it is to cut these bottles into strips, transversely to the base of it.

After having cut a certain amount of plastic strips, they should be placed under an optimal weight, to straighten them and leave them "ironed".

When this is achieved, the strips will be intertwined one by one, like wicker basketwork.

Of course, you can make as many containers and objects as the imagination manages to create. Likewise, colors and sizes can be alternated. For example, in the case of the image you can see a beautiful handmade basket in even green tones. But a good option may be to combine said green (characteristic of plastic bottles), with other transparent ones.
