So now she has a 'Tissue catcher/coaster'. I used a 4" tile, for the coaster (which took some thought, as to how I could make it work). Plus I shortened the straps, she had pinned up the straps on the old one.
Here is a picture on one that I use in my sewing room (one with the stripes on the inside) and her new one

we found that worked very well. instead of haveing a flat spot for a drink we put the patted spin cousin there and also had the animal. I will try and show you. also looking at the bag you put the tubeing on the inside of the bag as close as you can.
