| How to Make a Funnel from a Plastic Bottle Posted: A plastic bottle can be partially recycled into a funnel that you can use in a variety of ways, as this article will describe. Steps - Cut a plastic bottle in half, straight across. You will be using the top, but that doesn't mean you have to throw the bottom away. You can use it to make a candy dish and make some wire for jewelry and other projects. See How to Use a "Petaloid Bottom" Cut from a Soda Bottle for even more ideas.
- Draw a slanted line with a permanent marker, as shown.
- Cut along the line. Make sure the cut is straight and smooth. Use as a normal funnel.
- Sometimes, the container you are transferring to has a smaller opening than the funnel does. In order to avoid spilling, use the funnel as follows:
- Keep the cap on.
- Scoop the substance.
- Squeeze the wide opening of the funnel and pour the substance carefully into the other container. See the video for a demonstration.
-
Tips - A hard bottle is best suited for this purpose, although it will be harder to cut.
- A bottle that is thinner and taller will make for a funnel/scoop that is easier to use.
- When it's cut widely, it's also useful for "reduce" Saucer & dustpan.
(An example: The glitter isn't made wasteful. It's difficult to leave by static electricity, so sweep up by a brush.)
Things You'll Need - Plastic bottle (Pressure-resistant = Soda use)
- Craft, gardening, or kitchen scissors.
