How to make path of traffic jams

Use in interior of the apartment and giving plastic bottles and traffic jams from them gains steam recently. Various hand-made articles, toys, panel and patterns decorate houses and personal plots. The garden path which is laid out by plastic plugs – original and functional element of decor, and stopper – surprisingly the strong and durable construction material resistant to temperature drops and loadings.

1. It is necessary to begin creation of garden "pith" path with collecting material – that is multi-colored traffic jams. The more they will manage to be gathered, the more interesting the pattern will turn out. Traffic jams it is required much therefore it is possible to connect to collecting material of friends and relatives, and it is better to begin this process long before approach of summer season.

2. Development of pattern. It is possible to spread, of course, traffic jams in chaotic order – in diversity of paints are "highlight" too. However it will be much more interesting if from traffic jams to lay out any pattern. And if the pattern consists of the repeating elements, then the path can be done gradually, in process of emergence of the necessary quantity of traffic jams. It is better to lay out element of pattern before work on future path or on some plain surface, observing at the same time the path width size.

3. It is necessary to mark path: to hammer pegs, to pull ropes, to remove the turf. If the soil path already is, then the task becomes simpler. The earth on the place of path needs to be dug over, leveled and stamped slightly. Further it is possible to use two ways of production of pith path. In the first case on path it is necessary to fill sand layer of 3 cm, to humidify it and to start pattern vykladyvaniye, densely driving each stopper in sand and stamping. Then from above to put wooden board and to tap the hammer ideally to level surface. After completion of laying of traffic jams the path needs to be humidified once again well. However such path will not be strong – after a while separate traffic jams will begin to be beaten out from pattern.

The second way allows to make path stronger and durable. Instead of sand it is necessary to use the cement mix with sand (1:4) diluted with water to consistence of dense sour cream. For the rest process of production of path same. It must be kept in mind that the cement slurry quickly dries therefore it is necessary to prepare and pour it on path gradually. That the path has turned out accurater, it is possible to make timbering of boards. Production of path from traffic jams will demand many efforts, patience and time. But the result is worth it! It is so pleasant to create beauty theof hands!
