Step 5: With the foam brush, apply Mod Podge evenly all over the outside of the bottle. Stretch the fabric taut all around the sides of the bottle so it is wrinkle-free — this takes some work.

Trace the bottom of the bottle on a leftover piece of fabric, and cut out the oval shape. Apply Mod Podge to the bottom of the holder and attach the piece of fabric.

Apply another layer of Mod Podge on top of the fabric.Place the holder upside down on something narrow and sturdy, like a glass bottle, and allow it to dry for a few hours.
