Upcycled Beauty Case

I wanted to make a little gift made ​​from recycled materials but original and – why not? – maybe glam!
Mumble mumble … I don’t know about you, but my thinking place is … the bathroom! So I noticed the nth bottle of detergent for delicates, forgotten vacuum, near his “colleagues”.
By itself, a quite anonymous bottle: off-white, normal form, softened by a curve that drew the bottom.
Eureka! I’m doing a bowl-containing-something!
I didn’t take pictures for the tutorial, because today really there is a bad light, but it is easy to understand:
First of all, remove the label and glue with hot water and a wire brush.
1. cut the bottle with a cutter or scissors horizontally, the height that you want.
2. Proceeds practiced holes on the border with the office hole-puncher, at a distance of about 1-2 cm from each other.
3. if you want to create a container that could also get wet, decorate it with colored raffia (like I did) or with strips of plastic derived from shopping bags!
4. Then put on one side of the bowl a rosette, a bow or other crochet decoration at your pleasure.
