last minute christmas gift

I was down to the wire on making Christmas presents and had
just a few to complete. Not knowing what to give, I came
across a potpourri bag made from fabric. Has anyone done
this? You take two pieces of fabric, 8x14 inches and sew
them right sides together on three sides, making a bag.
Then you fold down about 9 inches to the outside and "paint"
glue and water (3 to 1 solution) on the outside of the bag.
Turn the bag right side out and finish "painting". Place
a bottle with plastic wrap around it inside the bag, and
place a rubber band around the bottle. Stand the bottle up,
and fold down another inch or so of the bag; fold it loosely
but not so loose the rubber band falls down. Let the bag
dry. Remove the bottle and rubber band. Take some fancy
cording and tie it around the bag, and place potpourri in
the bag. The bag will stand up because you originally had
the bottle in it and the glue stiffens the fabric.

I did this with a rust-colored jacquard tapestry fabric and
black velvet cording. Surprisingly, it turned out nice.

Thanks Beth - I just asked it you'd send me the instructions on the other
group, cause I lost it, but I'd still love the picture.
