Let's go over the followed to follow from each of the Crafts so you don't forget anything and you can make yourself at home.
Bongo bell
To make the Bell you must cut the bottle top, the rest you can recycle in another craft. Make a hole to the plug with a cutter or awl, and pass the cord. You must tie a knot inside so that it does not escape and you can hang your bell. Paint the bottle with spray the color you want. It looks great in red, gold or silver. To the cord that hangs inside you must tie a Jingle Bell so that your bell rings when moving. To add details you can paint the bottom edge of white to simulate snow.
And in this simple way you will have a christmas bell that you can hang to decorate, simply by reusing a plastic bottle.
Estrella
This time, to create the star, you must cut the bottle base. Paint it with spray, for this craft the color is perfect golden. So that it is not so bland you can decorate it by making a drawing of a Snowflake following the lines of the bottle itself.
With an awl, make a hole on one side and a wire. This wire will be used to hook the star to the top of your Christmas tree.
Snow pendant
In this craft, as in the first, you must cut the bottle top. Mark the circumference of this on a cardboard and cut the circle with a utility knife. To make it better, paint the cardboard with White paint. When the paint is dry you can paste the christmas figure that you have chosen in the center of the circle, and also add artificial snow that can move when you shake the pendant. Glue the cardboard base onto the bottle to close it.
To hide the cap, surround it with a cord and take the opportunity to hang the Christmas ornament. And so you will have an original pendant with Recycled material.
