    I have a retreat I am going to Thrusday - Sunday and waited until the last nminute to make anything for everyone so I made water bottles, emptied them, dried of course, then chose fabrics and cut up fat-eigths and put two in each bottle.

    TOmorrow all I have to do is make copies of a label I made for the bottle. Glue a button on each lid. Ta-dah...... Quick fix.

    The trick to getting them in there is you cut the center with a sharp knife half way around, then add fabrics and then tape shut with clear tape. The label hides any signs of it being cut, so they think you stuffed them from the top.

    Took me two hours to do 30. Great idea for get togethers and partys too.

    Label I will put over water label and use clear tape to attach.

    I would think a Coke bottle or Dr.Pepper, etc would be cute too. Thanks for looking.
