Even damaged tires will come in handy - useful products are made up of individual fragments. Items made of tires are also used for business purposes.
Flower beds
They are horizontal, vertical, suspended, wall mounted, etc. To make a flowerbed in the shape of a bowl, a drawing is first applied to the tire. It is recommended to make at least eight corners, while the transitions between them leave smooth. The shape is cut and removed like a cap. The rest of it turns inside out. The role of the "neck" design will perform the wheel disk. The product is painted. Another alternative to a conventional flowerbed is a suspended tire structure. They are cut into two semicircles each. By means of a twine and screws of a tire fasten for a framework. With the role of the basics cope football goal.

For the manufacture of swans will need to draw a detailed drawing. It will take several narrow rings connected to the tire and some number of wide semicircles from the tires. The neck is made from a long pointed piece. The product is installed on the stand from the disk. Several similar methods of making giraffe and zebra.

There are 2 main options for the implementation of this item of furniture. In the first case, the disc is removed, several tires are placed on each other, and a round board is attached to the top. The table will be compact and convenient. Decorating elements can be placed in the empty space inside the tires: the emptiness is filled with coins, and a transparent table top is installed on top. Such a product will "catch the eye." Small coffee tables covered with wickerwork. If the surface is too small, there will always be an opportunity to attach a large tabletop. The empty space inside the tire can be filled with coins, and a transparent table top can be installed on top. Such a product will "catch the eye."

Tire swing
From the tires you can make a swing for the playground. They will be safer than wood. For their manufacture will need a strong rope or chain, jigsaw, a sharp knife and the tire itself. In addition, you should get U-bolts and nuts. There are six holes drilled in the tire - two in close proximity to each other. Spray paint over paint and leave to dry completely. Then, U-bolts are inserted into the holes. They are fastened with nuts. Outside there should be a few centimeters of space between the tire and the rounded end of the bolt. On the territory you need to find a thick horizontal branch to secure the rope. Triple mounting will be enough for the structure to cope with the load.

The tire must be in perfect condition, otherwise the swing will not last long!
Beds for your favorite pets
The craft of tires can be a new resting place for pets. In the center of the finished product should be placed a pillow. Its thickness is matched to the width of the tire. For this draw a rectangular strip. Its length should be equal to the tire circumference. Then all the details of the pillow are drawn on the textile. One element is a long rectangle, the other two are semicircles. It is necessary to remember allowances. All parts are cut and stitched. Through the hole, the inner part is turned inside out, and after that a filler is inserted into the pillow - the soft part is ready. The next step is decorating the tire. It is painted with hypoallergenic paints without a strong smell. As a result, it remains only to insert the soft part into the chair. The tire is ready for use in this form, but it can also be attached legs. If the bed is intended for the cat, then the tire in the form of a swing will be a good alternative to the usual.

You will need a dense material that is designed to protect pools. Do not use regular polyethylene. The material is distributed along the bottom, and the edges are displayed half a meter beyond the extreme points of the tire. The reservoir is pre-filled with water to the bottom took its form. The edges of the material are smoothed and sprinkled with gravel and sand. Due to this, the membrane will not crawl. Then a mini pond is decorated. It is framed by stones and painted.
Curbs, fences and not only
Tire curbs are common in small communities. In this way the flowerbeds are separated from the rest of the space. Tires are made of low fences for delimiting zones in the garden, and from a large number of tires you get a full fence. In the second case, they are placed on each other, and the voids are filled with vegetation. It should be noted that such a construction will cost a significant amount. Pile of tires in the form of a pyramid will be a favorite place to play with children up to 10-11 years old. In the upper part of the structure should be placed a large tire, for example, from KamAZ. Boarded tires can be used to lay tracks. If there are significant height differences on the site, tires will be useful for creating stairs. They need to be fixed in the soil at least on one side and filled inside with earth and sand.

A large round pot will decorate the top of an improvised well - the barrel is ready. Next comes the construction of the tip. Two long boards create side racks for the gate. The winch itself can be made from a piece of thick branch. It can be singed or colored to make the gate different in color. The lever gate is made of several tubes. They are connected by angular structures. An iron chain is attached to the winch. Since it will not be able to be lowered down, you will have to wind the lever and the gate.

They are bolted together, attaching to each other with long edges. This element will serve as the roof. The pallet will be attached with PVC tubes. Sticking irregularities must be carefully polished. Then inserts for pipes are cut from a small piece of wood. To get the desired shape and size, use a knife and a hammer. The perfect cylinder can be made with a miniature grinding machine. Screws fix inserts in the edges of the tubes. It will take 4 trunks. They are fastened through tires with thin nails or with the help of hot glue. The pallet itself is made from one large piece of tire. It should be inferior in size to the upper part, about 2-3 times.
Parking spaces for bicycles
It is a good alternative to metal structures. It will take about a dozen parking spaces. The distance between the tires should match the width of the wheels or be slightly smaller. First you need to decide where exactly the parking spaces will be located. For reliable fastening, a pit of rectangular configuration is dug in the ground. Tires are fixed and covered with earth exactly to the middle. The free part of the rings can be patched with something, for example, plywood boards. They should be painted in the color of tires. Tires themselves can also be painted. If you remove the bicycles from the improvised parking, you get an interesting playing place for children. For a more reliable fixation of vehicles, you can make two rows of tires - for the front and rear wheels. Tires can be used for exercise.

In this case, it is not necessary to paint it - the product will look stylish even in its original condition. In designer houses and apartments you can see chandeliers from such a non-standard material, like tires. The highlight of the interior will be an improvised stand for umbrellas. To make it, you need to drill wide holes at a distance of no more than a quarter of a circle from each other. From 2-3 tires of the small size there will be a beautiful flowerpot. A small decorative table with upholstered textile "will be to the taste" of small children. Another option is to replace an ordinary garbage can with a product made from multi-colored tires. You can implement custom ideas. For example, place a low-frequency speaker in the bus.
