Now get several empty baby food jars . You will not need the lids. Buy some 5' red or green paper doily. You will need a rubber band for each jar . You will also need some ribbon. A bag of tiny pinecones. Fill the jars with your potpourii and cover the top with the doily . Hold the doily over the top of the jar and secure the doily with the rubber band. Cover the rubber band with some red or green ribbon . Using a low temperature glue gun adhere a small pine cone to the front of the jar.
