Now you need to spread the film and put a five-centimeter layer of putty on it. A heavy container with sand is placed directly on it and additionally pressed down with its weight. All the mixture protruding around the bottle must be distributed with a spatula along the walls of the bottle. You should get a body completely wrapped in putty.

Keep a damp bandage handy. Take the putty with wet hands and make a cylinder out of it, then spread it around the neck. To make sure the putty stays in place, it is best to wrap it with a damp bandage. Then move to the very top of the rod, remembering to create two seals: at the bottom - a smooth transition at the latvia mobile database where the neck connects to the body, at the top - a head with a flat beak. Then the swan from a plastic bottle will look natural. If there are any uneven areas, smooth them out with a wet brush or wet hands. Hint: to prevent the putty from sticking to your hands, constantly wet them.

Now you need to take two pieces of fine mesh, cut in the form of folded wings, and press them well into the body. When they are well fixed, you will need to cover the mesh with "swan feathers" made of putty. To prevent the wings from falling off during the work, you need to hold them on one side, while the mass is applied to the other side. Similarly, the mass in the form of a tail sits on the mesh.

4. Preparation for painting
This figurine dries for several days in a dark, ventilated room. After it dries completely, the product must be sanded first with coarse and then fine sandpaper. Then you can start priming and subsequent painting with white enamel paint. Be sure to highlight the bird's beak with red, and the eyes and the "bump" above the beak, a distinctive feature of the mute swan, with black. If necessary, the swan can be covered with a layer of colorless varnish.

Now the swan made from a plastic bottle is ready to please the eye and serve as a home for a low or creeping garden plant.
