then centre over a coffee jar lid and mold down around to make a hat shape hold with rubberband when dry remove lid and fill with popouree add alittle extra oil if want glue on a circle of stiff netting to hold all in. add a ribbon and flowers and yoy have a sweet smelling gift. great for people in nursing homes. you can add a loop to hang on door knob or bed post. happy crafting....ps not sure on some of my spelling here...ha

This is a neat craft idea not only 4 gift 4 N.H. residents but it is a craft they themselves can do with a little assist from an activities person. I't sometimes hard to come up with crafts they can do that r age related & useful but this would great. *4U

That is kewl, thank you. I used to be a PCA/Rec Aide at a place I had worked and know how hard it is to come up with some things to do. I will pass this onto the Rec Aide at the place I now work at. *4U ><>

Thanks - I guess this could also be done with any of our own FSL doilies -- when they are still wet. No glue needed - because of the stablizer. Hehehe!
