The outline of my Design Project

(Shampoo bottle) Recycled Plastic Storage container.

First being a used shampoo bottle which I modified to make into a pencil storage container in the shape of a monster. Being already coloured green saves the painting process.

The products you will need to make this recycled pencil storage container.
-Scissors
- White and black paper
- PVA glue
- Sticky tape
- Black permanent marker

First of all you will need to sanitise the bottle making sure all of the shampoo is removed for health and safety issues. Secondly you will peel off the sticker on the shampoo bottle leaving revealed a blank green bottle. Next take the black permanent marker and mark out where you want to cut along to the height you want your pencil container. Next take the scissors and cut along the line making a curved top. With the spare parts of the shampoo bottle you have cut out, you can then cut the arms out. Now you can place the arms with the PVA glue/sticky tape on the back of the shampoo bottle. Take the black and white paper and cut out a mouth, teeth and eyes in the size of how you want your monster to be. Leave to dry for a night and now your monster desk storage container is ready for storing your pencils.

 

 

                                                                                                                                           
 

(Pringles) Recycled storage container.

Now to use the same method for making a storage container out of a Pringles jar.
The products you will need to make this recycled pencil storage container.
-Scissors
- patterned coloured paper
- PVA glue
- Paint

 First take your Pringles container and remove any leftover chips or remaining chips into a spare container, sanitize the container and leave to dry.

Leftover chips



Next, paint a layer of white paint all over your Pringles container and sit to dry. Select your paint colour you wish to choose and now paint the container.

Now time to illustrate your container to your personal likings. Paint or use craft materials to design your favourite animal, food, picture of anything you desire.
Use the PVA glue to attach your craft materials on to your container and sit to dry.

Now that the design of a Storage container is finished you can now put it to use, using your stationary items at school or home.

 This process can also be repeated with different materials such as a milo/coffee can, jam/peanut butter jar, biscuit container, etc.
