The best thing that we do to used-plastic bottles is trashing them. A very few among us might have thought of reusing it say, to fill drinking water or to store oil or something. It’s already late for us to take action. Each day millions of bottles are littered around and most of them end up contaminating precious water bodies. 0:05 Funnel 0:24 Spoon 0:46 Squeeze bottle (w/ fine tip nozzle) 1:31 Cup w/ handle 2:05 Shrink wrap picture cup 2:33 Orange juicer 3:29 Hose nozzle 4:16 Rotary tool guard 5:06 Gutter down spout, hinged 5:47 Toothbrush holder 6:47 Camera 'tripod' / "bottle bod" 7:21 Wire insulator 7:58 Fish/ minnow trap 8:27 Plastic bottle "rope" 8:43 Plastic bottle "rope" net/fence 9:04 Magnifying lens 9:54 Vacuum filter (find/ pickup small dropped items) 10:30 Levitating ping-pong ball 11:09 Hidden message on Coke bottle 11:53 Mouse trap 12:36 Auto plant waterer 13:20 Yarn ball holder/ dispenser 13:43 Bracelet 14:15 Pen/pencil holder with paperclip tray 14:51 TP holder/ dispenser15:10 Pen/pencil case 15:46 Padded camera lens case 16:33 Car umbrella holder 17:15 Bottle + Balloon vase 17:39 Ottoman (low upholstered seat / footstool) 18:30 Bottle cap mini storage (nuts and bolts) 19:58 Bottle cap flower / card holder / picture holder 21:14 Bottle cap + CD painter’s pallet 22:07 Sifter / strainer 23:34 Round cookie cutter(s) 24:40 Egg and spoon holder 25:22 Melted bottle cap phone holder 27:02 Melted bottle cap pen (turned on mini lathe) 29:33 Water spout (temporary faucet) 30:00 Dish and utensil drying rack 30:28 Plastic bag handle 30:44 Copy a key 31:19 Pipe carrier (see 30:28 Plastic bag handle) 31:37 Giant bottle lighter 33:20 Pressurized spray bottle 35:24 Bottle to bottle funnel 36:01 Paper towel dispenser (keeps paper towel dry) .....[more]

Cripes!
This didn’t turn out well.

The list is more readable in the ‘more info’ posted on the you tube site. Anything from ball point pens, balls, foot stools and fences can be made from recycled product. Very innovative

Filled with water, capped and frozen they make adequate cooler ice - keeps the sammiches from floating on a hot day.

When my son was in middle school, they had a project to “create” something useful, using a 2 liter plastic soda bottle. I think he ended up making a garbage bag dispenser, which would hold a roll of trash bags and had a slit through which you would pull one out.

This fellow did something similar = toilet paper holder, paper towel holder, plastic cup holder. Even a toothbrush holder. Darn, this guy has an imagination :-)

Faux prey for the dog.

Bottle carried about, brought home, and then de"cap"itated, liquid pours out like blood. Dog happy. No more expensive chews.

LOL A dog considers just about anything to be a toy for him. Even old, holey socks (dirty or not)

My dog has a very creative mind. He will take a new sock and transform it into an old holey one.
