The problem of recycling used tires caresenvironmentalists from the late 70s of the last century. This is especially true of our country, where there are still not enough enterprises capable of using them as recyclable materials. As they say, in such a situation everyone can save himself as much as possible, therefore one can only welcome those craftsmen who are trying to free the landfills from these non-decomposing wastes and, for example, to make beds of tires with their own hands. They can be very different, from worn tires just dug into the ground in which flowers are planted, to complex flowerpots in the form of swans with a bright pattern. If you are interested in this idea and would like to see a plot in front of your house decorated with a beautiful flower bed of a tire, how to make your own hands with this, you can read below.

The fact is that the shabby Proctor is softer, so the turning-over process is easier and does not require much effort.
To make the original flower beds of tireswith your hands in the form of daisies, just take 4 of any tires, preferably the same size. You will need to remove the rubber from the metal rim and cut so that you get two identical halves. So you need to do with three tires, and in one rubber sheath left intact, as it will be used as the heart of the flower. Then the halves and the whole tire must be dyed in various colors and dug 5-6 cm into the ground, laying out a flower with 6 petals with a circular center. The composition will look more interesting if the heart is planted with flowers of one species, and the petals are of another.

For its implementation, you will need 6 tires, which need to be painted in bright colors and put in 3 rows, in which there will be 3, 2 and 1 tires. If the suburban area is quite spacious, then you can make the design more complicated by laying out a flower of 5-6 tires in the bottom row, on the second - of 3 and crowning it with one.

There is a more difficult option, the implementation of which will require a lot of patience. However, the result is usually excellent.

If you have 3 tires of different sizes or thoughIf two and one plastic bucket with a capacity of 0.5 liters, then you can make a pyramid on the principle of the well-known children's toys. To create it, the tires need to be stacked on top of each other in descending order of diameter, filling each one with earth. Above you need to install a bucket and, to plant in it and into the tires from the lower layers of climbing plants, so that they hang down from the hill, as it grows, covering it all.

You will need a tire from a truck that needs to cut the sidewall with an electric jigsaw (to make the work easier, it is recommended to cool the jigsaw cloth from time to time in a soap solution). Having finished with this work, they take the R13 tire and with a well-sharpened, or better still, cut the sidewall with a shoe-knife, smearing the blade with liquid soap. After that, the tire is turned inside out so that the tread is inside, and a bowl without bottom is obtained. The next stage is the manufacture of the upper part of the cup, which will require a tire of a slightly larger diameter, for example, from a UAZ. With it cut off both sides. At the same time, on the one hand, this should be done so that the resulting hole is no larger than the diameter of the pial. In addition, a strip for the handle is cut out from the scraps of the largest tire.
When all parts are ready, you should proceed.for painting and assembling flower beds. For this, the "saucer" and the handle are painted in one color, and parts of the mug in another. Then, on the place where they are going to install a flower bed, they lay a piece of cellophane and put a “saucer” on top, and first place a “bowl” in its hole, and then the upper part of the cup. Then, using a screw, fix the handle and, using a stencil, apply the mug to the mug in a saucer color. Everything! Now you know how to make a bed of tires with your own hands in the form of a cup.

If you are wondering how to make a flower bed fromtires with their own hands easier, but so that it looked original, you can use your imagination. To do this, you can simply remove the "gum" from the rim, turn it inside out and paint it accordingly.

After the earth has been filled up in such a flowerbed and plants are planted, it is necessary to cut the head with the ears and the patch from a piece of rubber from another tire and insert it inside the tire circle between the flowers.
A flower bed of tires, made by hand, can be of very different forms, for example, resemble a frog. For such crafts will need:
The manufacturing process is very simple:tires need to be painted green and, if you wish, put yellow rims on top. Then install two tires on the chosen place, and on the top, between them, the third. From the hose, also painted with green paint, it is necessary to cut two lengths of about 1 m, and from another tire - 4 legs and put two in front of the lower tires, and two between them, after attaching the "hoses" to them. When the body of the frog is ready, you need to go to the design of its head. To do this, on the lids of ice cream buckets it is necessary to paint the eyes, and on the top tire - with the red paint of the mouth. After that, it remains to simply fall asleep the ground and plant flowers. If you wish, you can turn the frog into an enchanted princess by making her a crown from a plastic bottle painted with yellow paint.
Many gardeners are interested in how to make a flower bed fromtires with their own hands in the form of the sun. For such crafts will need one tire, bright yellow paint and several plastic bottles. The tire must be removed from the metal wheel and buried in the ground so that only a semicircle remains above the surface.

In such cases, it is enough to make a “water” bed of tires. To do this, it is necessary to cut the upper part of the tire and dig it into the ground to half. Then it is necessary to lay a round piece of special waterproofing film on top, which is intended for arranging pools with a diameter of 1 m larger than the diameter of the tire. The edges of the film that project over the rim of the tire must be turned out, fastened and lined with small round stones or broken bricks. It remains to put on the bottom of the reservoir a small net basket with earth, in which the roots of the water lily are planted.
