Description

Recycling empty plastic bottles into pendants/trinkets

Instructions

  1. Small 2018 09 09 170015 c transparent 01

    We will need a plastic bottle (the one used for carbonated drink, not mineral water or non-carbonated drinks). Cut them into rectangular pieces.

  2. Small 2018 09 09 170017 c transparent 02

    Heat up the plastic sheets in the oven toaster (for about 10-15 secs or until a shape is formed).

  3. Small 2018 09 09 170020 c transparent 03

    Depending on how the sheet is placed, the shapes may turn out differently.

  4. Small 2018 09 09 170026 c transparent 04

    Color or decorate the newly-shaped plastic pieces. You can use them as pendants or as embellishments to accessories.

  5. Small 2018 09 09 170032 c transparent 05

    Chain it and we are done!
