Neat bottle of white opaque plastic, which is poured yoghurt, kefir and milk will serve as the starting material for our lush white rose, made with his own hands. In addition to these bottles still need a candle, the flame which will be cast with plastic and glue (hot gun or any other adhesive, firmly securing polymeric materials). By the way, if your kitchen is not electric and gas cooker, the candle can be replaced by a gas burner. Oh, and it will need a long forceps, which is necessary to keep the details, treating them over a fire.

This bouquet will collect from daisies and cornflowers. And we will need for it: a bottle of blue plastic cornflowers, white opaque polymer bottle daisies, green bottle for the stems and leaves, brown and yellow (orange) plastic for seredinok colors. And prepare a candle, glue and stiff wire braided, which will serve as the basis for the stems.
So, we begin ... From the middle of the blue bottle cut out circles with a diameter of seven to eight centimeters. Two circles - one knapweed. Now these parts crosswise incision, made eight cuts from the edge to the center and before reaching the city center about half a centimeter. Then, the edge of each petal cut a shallow sharp teeth and attach flower curved shape, holding the item over a candle flame. Then in the center of each cornflower do puncture thick sharp awl.
To cut out the stem in a spiral thin strip (five millimeters) from the green bottle. Then encircles the strip around the wire, holding it over the fire and closing coils of wire along the entire length. The tip of the wire is exempt from the braid, leaving the metal rod length of about four centimeters. Another green bar is twisted into a tight roll of and slightly pushing midway, giving it the shape of a cone and fix glue.
From green bottle cut out small circles with jagged edges (this will be the sepals) and also is first treated them over the flames, and then make a puncture in the middle. Now put on the wire first green cone, then sepals followed two pieces cut from a blue bottle. We fix via Melt.

We put on the stamens on a wire, metal wire end Bends, fixing flower. Decorate the middle of a black or silver beads, placing beads on the adhesive.
To daisy cut out of white plastic bottle round parts with a diameter of eight centimeters. Making incisions on each part, as in the first case, only much more to obtain ten-sixteen petals. Each sector is cut off at the edge, giving the rounded petals. Now handles the details of hot air to the petals took tortuous, and do in the middle of every detail puncture.
For each flower midway Cut two small circles of yellow plastic and a little incision them over the edge, making the fringed edge. In one circle to cut out a triangular segment of a circle and turn the cone, softening of hot air and fixing glue. The second circle just treat over the fire and pierce the center. From green bottles do sepals.
On the wire (prepared as cornflowers and) put on first sepal, then two pieces of white plastic, then the yellow circle and fold the metal wire, fixing flower. Yellow cone, like a cap, close the metal loop. We fix glue.
From green plastic leaves with petioles cut out the shape of true leaves of cornflowers and daisies. Each leaf handle over a candle, leaving the stalks intact. Then attach the leaves to the stems, petioles wrapping around the wire and softening them over a flame. Putting a bouquet and admire the beauty of the created their own hands.

Now we divide each circle into six sectors and makes an incision from the edge to the center before reaching the center of the one and a half centimeters. Each petal cut off, rounding the edges. We lit candles and begin to shape the petals. First passes near the flame-edged petals podplavlyaya them and making wavy. Now we turn over the item and heated midway of each lobe, causing the plastic to bend, and the petal to become convex.
