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 2 pieces of fabric, 8x14 inches and sew them right sides together on 3 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 no 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 tapestry fabric and velvet cording. It really turned out nice.
