How to make a recycled plastic bottle footstool

March 21, by Stefanie Girard. 8 Comments

plastic-bottles-ideas-1024x926

I bet we all buy something in a plastic bottle, if not I’m sure we know someone who does.

This footstool is a great example of how by using something as a group it makes it super strong…and covering it makes it pretty!

The picture explains all that needs doing. Group the bottles together, and sticky tape them. Add a cushion on top, and add a cover!

    how many bottles do you use for the square one and how many for the round one since on this one there is no picture. Also in the pic for the square one it looks like the bottle that is turned upside down the top has been pushed inside of the bottle.

    It looks like the ends have been cut from each bottle then inserted opposite ends into each bottle to increase the strength.

    The picture does not explain all! How about a step by step guide please, this is not a “how to”

    I understand the picture. Even a kindergartener can figure this out! Thanks!

    I am a complete novice when it comes to DIY. I have just discovered how fun, enjoyable and creative it can be. That being said the pictures are definitely not self explanatory, it would be so great to have a few more step by step instructions included. Dimensions for the square one well as how to assemble the round one. This looks like it could be a great DIY with just a little bit more put in to it.

    I’m wondering if each complete bottle has the bottom part of another bottle that was cut off and put over the top of the first one? Then taped or glued in place so it doesn’t slip off? I don’t know, but it sounds like that would work to me. Any thoughts?

    Is it filled with water or something, or is it empty ??? I think it will be better that is filled with something , if not sand than at least water….if not it fly away…? Or ?
