Using double sided tape wrap the strip around the bottle leaving the biggest part of the label uncovered as it will be covered later and cover the hanger part of the button packet. Step 5

Stand back and admire your little gift then stash it till Thursday.
I had fun making up these. I was just going to do the flower bottle one for Craig but Asher was watching me do it and wanted to give her teachers at school something too.
Hope you all have fun on valentines day whatever you end up doing.
See you all in Therapy.
