Recycled Bottle Tops to Seal (preserve)open Plastic Packets
Last month I came across a random Facebook picture ( the kind that circulates itself through friends’ walls and you glance at it, maybe hit a like button, and then move on forgetting all about it 30 seconds later ) and fell in love with it. This one had a sliced off bottle cap sealing an open plastic bag.
Its very useful while surviving.
it is important to seal food packet after using it.so it will be useful method.
Material
You need:
Used plastic bottles Sharp,
heavy scissors
A Kitchen towel or soft cloth
Wash and dry the bottle.
Using the scissors, make a puncture about 1-2″ from the ring.
Slide the scissor in into the puncture and cut it out in a circle.
Slice the top of the plastic bag neatly.
Gather the folds and insert the ring, and pull up the ends creating a ‘neck’.
Seal the cap tight. You might have to push it down a bit to make the cap onto the ring.
Note:
For thicker plastics, it’s wiser to use sturdy bottle caps with a wide mouth – like a juice bottle. For thin plastics, you can use water bottle caps. If the plastic is too stiff, then transfer to a more pliable bag, like a bread plastic bag, and then use the cap method to seal it.
