I have a lot of used plastic bottles at home. Can I just throw them away? Not necessarily. The production department shared a tutorial on turning old plastic bottles into treasure. In six simple steps, you can turn waste plastic bottles into cute piggy banks. You can not only turn old plastic bottles into treasures, but also collect scattered coins. Let’s use old plastic bottles to DIY a piggy bank!
Steps to DIY piggy bank from old plastic bottles:
Step 1: Prepare an old plastic bottle that is not used, whether it is a milk bottle, a juice bottle, or a beverage bottle. The weirder the shape, the better the effect.
Step 2: According to the diameter and thickness of the coin, first mark the size with a pen in the center of the plastic bottle, and use a knife to cut it according to the size. (Note: Use the knife carefully to avoid cutting your fingers)
Step 3: Paint the piggy bank (note: it is better to use acrylic paint, general paint dissolves when exposed to water)
Step 4: Apply the prepared color evenly on the piggy bank. Of course, you don’t need to apply paint.
Step 5: After the bottle is colored and completely dry, we clean the color brush. Apply a layer of anti-corrosion varnish on the bottle to better protect the color of the money jar. Then again, leave it for some time until the varnish is completely dry.
Step 6: Make the four legs of the piggy bank. It is best to use a small round-headed needle to simulate four short legs. Finally, use a black pen to draw the small eyes and nose.
Okay, the tutorial on turning old plastic bottles into treasure by DIY handmade piggy bank is completed, hurry up and make one!
