Hello to all my creative friends in the Draft Crearte community.


On this occasion, I will present you for the second time an interior decoration craft, which, as I have said in my previous post, is one of my greatest passions. And the best thing about this craft is that we are going to recycle.

Craft recycling is about creating items out of used product materials. Most of the things we throw away can be reused to give you a second chance.

Why should we recycle?

Recycling contributes to having a positive impact on the environment, we help reduce the use of resources such as water and energy that are used to manufacture products, we reduce pollution levels, we promote fair trade networks, among others.


Today we are going to use :

Butter container
Garden stones
Jute fabric
Cold silicone
Jute yarn
Scissor
Acrylic paint
Brush


STEP 1

We are going to take our container, in this case mine is butter because I liked the way it is, you can do it with any other. We remove the lid, obviously we must have it well washed and dry, we are going to use white acrylic paint and a brush, we will start by painting the lid from the top.



STEP 2

We will continue painting the lid until it is completely white, then the container but we will paint it only in half, it is not necessary that it be divided exactly right in half since the bottom part will be covered. It is important to note that we must apply two layers of paint for both the lid and the container, so that those letters can be well covered and it looks totally white.


So it will be

STEP 3

The next step is to take our jute fabric, and we are going to cut a rectangle of approximately 12 centimeters, after we have already cut the rectangle, we proceed to place cold silicone on one side to fold it and glue it on the other side, to obtain in this way a double and therefore thicker strip.



STEP 4

Now, we take our jute strip and place abundant silicone on the inside, then we proceed to glue it to the bottom of our container, trying to make it as straight as possible.



STEP 5

Once we have glued the yute strip to the container, we are going to use our jute thread or any other thread with which we can decorate, we are going to place silicone on the upper edge and then we begin to wrap the thread around the container. until the white background of said container is not seen, only the edge since we are going to leave the space that we painted in white, so that it can be seen.



STEP 6

We placed our container on top of the lid that we had painted and this is how we left our pot with a container of butter.

STEP 7

I am going to take a plant that I had in a juice container that I reused to plant but it was not decorated, so what I will do is transfer my plant to my new pot.


STEP 8

Finally we are going to make use of the gardening stones, to cover the black earth we are going to throw stones on top of the earth until it is covered. And we have already completed the process of transferring the plant to our beautiful flowerpot.


This is a fairly simple craft to do and with very few materials, they should not necessarily use what I used, we can simply use things that we have at home, and put all creativity into practice.

See you soon with a new craft!
