    This is something a lady i know made me,,which it is a vase with potpourri and lights in it,,and has a lace doiley on the top with ribbon,,,which it is really simple to make and also gives off the aroma of the potpourri,, the lady who made this for me is 84 years old which also is very inspirational,,,

    My little sister's boyfriend's grandmother (what a mouthful!) made me something like that for Christmas several years back. Except she used a mason-type jar and hand-painted Christmasy pics on it. It had a doily on top as well. I really loved it.
