To make your own recycled plastic heart mobile you will need:
white plastic milk bottles, a permanent marker, a strong-sharp-needle, a thimble, a keyring, a pair of scissors, thread, string, beads and buttons in the colour of your choice.
*With your marker, draw out the shape onto the plastic bottle(you can use any other template if you wish).
*To make it easier to cut out the heart, I have cut the bottom of the bottle off first.
Cut as many shapes as you want...
*Measure out the length of sting you want to use, neatly knot it around your keyring
*From the other side of your string, thread a bead and make a knot for it to sit on, leave a space and make a knot where your shape will be placed(repeat this for the amount of beads and shapes you want on your mobile.
*Now, using your needle and thimble, make holes in your shapes keeping an even distance between holes. Remember to make holes for your buttons as well.
*Thread your needle with your favourite colour, make a small knot at the end and start threading through the holes you have made.
*With the same thread, sew the heart onto your string(above the knot) through the button.
...and there you have a fresh, GREEN, present to give to someone special...or you could just keep it for yourself, hehehe!
