!Beth! on Splitcoast did this idea last week and I needed a container for some for the Christmas candies. Washed a plastic soda bottle and after it was dried cut out a 2" circle and inserted shredded tissue paper and the candies. Then put in more tissue papers. Made the wide 'belly band' and used double sided tape to put that on the bottle. Used a corner rounder punch for the tag and used a circle punch for the hole for the top of the bottle to go in. Used an oval and a circle punch for the name tags--used the computer for the names. Punched small snowflakes for putting on the bottle band at random. Used the reindeer piece and the tree piece that were extra from the elf projects for this year--the tree was too high for the tag so I cut off the lower part of the tree and now it fit on the tag piece. Ribbons are from the stash.
