Steps to recycle plastic spoons creatively
- The first way to recycle plastic spoons is to create decorative flowers from them. For this you have to cut off the heads of five spoons.
- Take a piece of cardboard, cut out a circumference that is not too big and glue the spoons to the cardboard with the help of hot silicone, thus forming a small flower.
- Once the silicone has dried, you have to paint the flower that you have created with a little tempera. For the color, please choose the one you like best.
- Then you have to take five mini pompoms of the same color, and stick them one by one at the base of each spoon.
- Grab ortro mini pom pom make it a different color and what paste the flower in the center.
- Rrepeat the same process to create two other flowers make them the same.
- Now take three ice cream sticks and form a triangle with them.
- At each corner or vertex of the triangle you stick a flower and then you take and you hang some cotton threads with beads to create a nice decorative pendant for example the house entrance.
- The second way that we propose to recycle plastic spoons, is to start Picking up a pencil, you cut a piece of wool from the tip of the pencil to the base.
- Holding that piece of wool, you should wrap the entire pencil with more wool so that it is completely wrapped.
- When you’re done, Set aside the piece of wool that you passed through the base and stretch to remove the pencil.
- Now Close the two ends and tighten so that there is a circle that looks like a small wool flower.
- Take a piece of cardboard Y draw in this a shape that is similar to a butterfly.
- With black tempera, paint that cardboard on both sides.
- Now with the help of glue white-tailed, draw lines from the center of the butterfly outward and glue woolen threads on top,
- Next cut off the heads of a few plastic spoons (you will need at least nine) and the you stick on one end of the wings butterfly and we do the same with the other side.
- Create more wool flowers like the first one that we have explained and you stick them in the center of each head of the spoons that you have pasted.
