Bathroom baskets

What do I put in them? Also, do you think men could use one too? I was just going to do a women's basket b/c I couldn't think of enough things to fill up a men's basket.

    All I did was gum, mints, bug spray & spray deoderant (we had an outdoor reception and the bathrooms were unisex). Other ideas are tide pens, tampons, cigars (for men), tissues, mini sewing kit, etc.  But honestly, people wipe these clean immediately, so it's up to you how extravagant you want to get. (even the spray deoderant was gone immediately, not sure why someone swiped that!)

    Here are pictures of our bathroom basket and our poem to go with it.  It was a big hit!  People really appreciated having the products to use.  Men really don't care, but if you wanted to do one, add things like mouthwash, deodarant, gum, mints...  GL!http://tinyurl.com/l2lggxhttp://tinyurl.com/lxo47k

    I don't have pictures of ours but my mom threw them together at the last minute... she did a B&BW lotion & spray, mouthwash, gum, mints, hairspray, tampons, toothpicks, floss, bobbypins, deodorant... I think she got most of it at the $1.00 store or in the sample section of Target.  I don't think she did one for the guys room.  But I agree w/ PP - maybe mints, gum & deodorant or something.  My guests defnitely commented on how nice it was but some must have thought you can take what you want, b/c at the end of the night the B&BW stuff was gone and the hairspray.  Oh well :)

    Also maybe safety pins in case of wardrobe malfunctions and bandaids in case shoes rub!
