D.I.Y. Handbag Made of Crocheted CD`s

well,well, hello hello..people...it so hot today....how about your place there ?
yeah....project project .....
Thinking about a new project is not easy but its exciting and fun...its a challenge for me every time i create a unique project...or to make my original project
especially if its from trash materials...like plastic bottles .news paper or old Cd`s..

Because its summer here in Japan..i figure it out  to make a bag using  recycled materials....
i know i can make bag out news paper .....i can make bag out of plastic bottle....but i`m thinking can i make bag out of Cd`s..?....actually year 2009 i used to crochet ,and i also made crocheted Cd..i made this as cover ..
   I also saw many project of crocheted Cd`s on the web..like purse or small basket ...they have used 2 Cd`s.....while viewing them...i continue thinking and thinking ..if its possible to make a handbag ..but not only 2 Cd is needed..

so i made an experiment ... i want  to know if i can make bag from Cd`s...I get all my old Cd`s ..and lay them all on the floor...staring them ,thinking  about an hour , then i tried to assembled them to form a bag...   here `s  what i did first ...
I get 4 Cd`s for front of the bag  and 4 Cd`s at the back. .. 2 Cd`s on left side and 2 Cd`s on right side..and 2 Cd`s on the bottom part...That`s it............i saw it...i can make a bag.........then next method is.. how to connect them or attach them together to form a handbag image..and i know crochet can help that problem....yeah...how to connect Cd`s to Cd`s..that `s it..now i `have done it perfectly..

so cute handmade bag...

nice for fashion 

so now...lets me share with you how to make handbag from Cd`s..

MATERIALS I USED..
12 old CD`s ...
make your own handmade flower...i used crochet rose..12 pieces..
2 crocheted handle of bag...i made 300 crochet chain for one handle so you need 2 of this..
needle and thread to attach the rose ..
scissor of course.
i used 2 white yarn..or more depends how much your crocheting consume...any type of yarn is okay..
3 to 4 purple yarn...for flowers and to crochet the edges of Cd`s

 crocheted Cd..

 How to crochet Cd....first .you have to tie the yarn into the Cd ...by passing through the hole pull it and tie the yarn..

tied like this..

Before you connect Cd to Cd..you have to add more crochet chain into the crocheted Cd`s ..to make it  more durable..and design also...like in this photos.....make 5 crochet chain to form a petal .

  connected Cd`s to Cd`s..

crocheted rose...i will do tutorial for this soon..

Make Jewelry from Plastic Bottle

I am very excited creating so many things using plastic bottle...because i drink a lot of water everyday..a 2 liter water bottle is sometimes only for my one day...so bottles flooded in the trash can...to reduce them i`m doing my best to clean them all by recycling them.. even every little left over of the bottles...

..i was thinking how to recycling small plastic cut bottle....actually its ready for throwing them to garbage....but i figured it out that it can be use again ...so while cutting them into small pieces...and watching my face book...i saw one model wearing a black beaded necklace with mixed color of purple....i was attracted by that color necklace ,which supposed to be the color i will use in my project but i change my necklace color......and banggg..this ideas enter in my head...now convinced me to make a necklace...he he he...

wondering how to do a necklace in a plastic bottle huh? okay let me show you how...

i love this one very much

so  gorgeous..does not look from plastic bottle..

my first attempt..i was not satisfied with the design..

materials i used on making my jewelry are the following...

Of course Plastic bottle ..any plastic you have there..
scissors that can cut a plastic bottle
pliers for making jewelry..
stainless wire.....you can use synthetic thread ...and some materials for making jewelry..
adhesive glue for jewelry
can add pearl or beads if you want..
a color paint or nail polish..
a candle with lighter ...don not forget to use a mask...to avoid the toxic smell ..
  and do this with good ventilation of room..or maybe do it outside the house..

children should not do this..with out adults guidance or assistance...never try to light a fire inside your house..i am worried accident might occur..so be careful not to try this..

i used wire for necklace and use as barbecue stick for shrinking plastic..

synthetic thread

don`t know how to call this..

important to wear a mask..to avoid toxic smell

HOW TO MAKE.....

just cut a small pieces of plastic...size of a bead or size you want ......and gather them in place container ...
cut a wire 2 of your finger size...and ready for plastic burning...wear a mask first open the window....
then give a fire to your candle ..heat the tip point of your wire ..and inject to the cut pieces ..use pliers to avoid accident burnt....continue the process until you collect some beads on the wire..

i collect all bead in this container ..plastic bottle bottom part..

How to make Pendant....just cut a part you like in the bottle..a square shape or the bottom of small soda pop bottle...color them...and cut another small pieces of petal size of flower ..and shrink in heat.....
and next is add strong glue to the petals and place them in the round plastic ..and make a flower form...and thats it..color with nail polish...give them a hole ..by heated wire.....

pendant making photo..

shrinking a plastic cut pieces

they look like this after burnt..

all you have to do is...insert the beads you made in the necklace size cut wire 

applying color for the wire necklace

after they are burnt,shrink and polished  with color..and ready for drying them..
