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.

At Compass Centre retreat, there are 30 this year. So we give everyone a nice little something, and then something for our three roommates. Its fun. Of course others lay tings on your pillow etc all weekend to thank you for helping, or just because. I am taking extras too like little scissors, scissor fobs, things like that.
