There&#8217;s a couple of ways to do this. The bottom portion of the bottles is cut, so they resemble a\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 0.9em; line-height: 1.625;\">bowl. Make three or four small holes near the top of the bottle at equal distances. Hang with thin wire\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 0.9em; line-height: 1.625;\">pushed through the holes and twisted together near the top to form a hanger. Another way to make a bird feeder is to push a wooden spoon from either side through a small hole in the bottle. Fill with bird seed and place the cap on the bottle.

Carefully cut off the top portion of the bottle, so it&#8217;s even all the way around. Decorate with adhesive shelf paper, paint with acrylics, or use your imagination to decorate the outside of your vase. Use beads or inexpensive crystals on the finished surface. (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/312789136589329042\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Image Source<\/a>)<\/p>\n<h4>Individual Herb Gardens<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-790\" title=\"Plastic Bottle Herb Garden\" src=\"https:\/\/superiorplastics.com\/files\/4048671e5be7bbde17f32d83815e6c84.jpg\" alt=\"Plastic Bottle Herb Garden\" width=\"142\" height=\"177\" \/>Cut the top of the bottle and fill with soil. You can plant a favorite herb in each of the bottles. Creating planters for herbs is a good way to plant an herb garden if you have limited space or live in an urban area. The containers can be set on a sunny windowsill or out on a patio.

Cut off just enough from the top to hold pens and pencils. Creating containers with recycled plastic bottles is also a good way to keep craft supplies organized. You can even use a hot glue gun to attach several bottles and make a large organizer from them.
