Cut up some fabric strips into small squares and rectangles
Cut a plastic water bottle to the height you like.
Cover the outside of the bottle with plastic wrap tucking extra inside the bottle.
Turn the bottle upside down.
Brush glue all over the bottom and the lower sides.
Place a larger piece of fabric right side down to cover the bottom of the bottle.
Use more glue on top of the fabric and press down the edges with glue and the paintbrush until it is formed onto the bottle.
Start gluing more fabric scraps (right side down) on the sides of the bottle overlapping each other.
Once the bottle is covered start adding a second layer of scraps to the sides but this time make them right side up so that you can see the pattern.
Finish by adding an additional coat of glue over top.
Allow the glue to dry for several hours or overnight.
Remove the bottle and plastic wrap.
