This craft is great to give as a gift. a cup of super champions. A plastic bottle has been recycled and transformed into a great trophy that can be given as a gift on such a special day as father's Day. With a little spray paint and foam, you can make this beautiful cup so that it looks perfect in any corner of the house.
The materials I used for the trophy:
- A medium plastic bottle.
- Spray paint, in my case bronze.
- Blue and red EVA foam.
- Gold glitter cardstock.
- Hot silicone and his gun.
- Scissors
- Pencil.
- Cutter.
You can see this craft step by step in the following video:
First step:
With the help of a cutter We cut out the plastic bottle. We make a cut at its base so that it remains a piece of about 4 cm. Depending on the height of the bottle, the other piece will be cut to a lesser or greater extent. You have to cut this other piece in tune with the height you want to have from the cup.
Second step:
We paint the bottle. We can put paper in the area to be painted and spray the cut parts of the bottle with the spray. We let it dry and we paint again if we observe that it has not covered all the areas well.
Third step:
On a piece of foam we draw with a pen a kind of flower. You will have to have more or less a measure considered to the area where it will be placed (in the front of the trophy). We cut it out and glue it with the help of silicone.
Fourth step:
With the help of a compass we measure the inner part of the flower that we have done. In this way we will calculate more or less the size of a small circle that will go inside. With the measurement taken, we will capture it on the back of the gold cardboard and We draw the circle with the compass. We cut it out and glued it in the middle.
Fifth step:
Cut two strips of red EVA foam. They will be about 12 cm long and a centimeter wide. We glue the strips on both sides of the trophy, as handles, with hot silicone.
Step Six:
We glue the two cut parts of the bottle with hot silicone and in this way we form the trophy. We cut another strip 1,5 cm wide by 9 cm long. with this strip we will cover the cap of the bottle so that it is not seen.
Seventh step:
We take a piece of red eva rubber and we bring it closer to the golden circle of glitter. We will try to calculate more or less the space we need to be able to draw the number 1. We draw it, cut it out and glue it with the silicone. With this last step we will have our cup of super champions made.
