I have a project about recycling a plastic bottle or tin can into a recycled craft. Could you please give an idea on things that could make out of plastic bottle or tin can? And please give me an instruction please? and some added materials...
Thank you very very very much for helping me.....

Do you mean arts & craft.... craft?
If not, take a large juice bottle carefully cut bottom off (can use this as a dish for something outside like bird food maybe) the bottomless bottle can be used as a mini greenhouse in the early spring by placing it over young plants that need some frost protection.
If so...(and you're old enough to use a hammer and nail safely.)
Take a can, make sure the lid is completely removed and there are no sharp points. Fill with water and place in the freezer. Meanwhile find a hammer and a strong straight nail. Also begin planning a dotted pattern that will eventually surround the can.
Once water is frozen, map out the dotted pattern on your can with a waterproof marker. Find a sturdy area to lay the can down so you can hammer the nail throught the metal. Wear safety glasses please and you may need some gloves. (I used a picnic table, placing the can along the spot where the boards join.) Hammer the pattern so the nail goes through the metal. Once that design is done let the ice melt. Dry can. place a small votive candle in a small glass that fits into the can. Should look nice.
Just found these... go here they'll be more helpful..

About the only thing that comes to mind in recycled craft (that's use able is) .. water craft.. So take a 40 oz plastic bottle .. cut the top out like a canoe.. Put a couple styx out to the can on one side.. as to be an "outrigger".. Put some water in the can.. 1/4 to 1/3 full.. then plug the hole in the can.. I just thought this up.. but I'll bet it works.

Try making pen stands out of cardboard or old glass bottles. OR Take some old newspaper and dip it in water for 2 days . Now take it out and add some glue to make a paste. Mould it up like clay to make objects like a penstand and leave it to dry. Then after it has dried decorate it with paints.
