Survival Kits are done! (pip)

Here's the kits for my girls. :) 




I created the top using folded card stock and printed them in word on the bottom half of  a landscaped page and then stapled them to the big freezer ziplock bags filled with: 

tissue
q-tips
ibuprofen
hair spray
nail file
deodorant
altoids
tums
brush/mirror combo
wisp mini toothbrush
2 tampons/panty liner
hair tie
bobby pins
hand sanitizer
lotion
chapstick
lint brush
bandaids
100 calorie cookies
nature valley bar

Bought almost all the stuff at Target and a few things at bath & body works. I used mostly travel items except the ibuprofen cause the big bottle was cheaper than the travel size. It was maybe $15 - $20 a bag which was ok with me since all of my girls are traveling to New Orleans for the wedding. :) They will go in the monogrammed totes that I made earlier with the personalized wire hangers, coach wristlet and necklaces for the wedding.

    That's awesome!  Have you considered selling these on Etsy?   I know so many people who would buy them!

    I believe in a lot of things. I believe in fresh tennis balls, the healing power of bunnies, and that the novels of Susan Sontag are something I'll never read. In fact, I don't even know who Susan Sontag is. What is she... like... a painter? I believe in Crystal Lite because I believe in ME. I believe in the movies of Val Kilmer, though these days it ain't so easy. I believe in Darren Sproles, the word "dabble", the first season of "Silk Stockings", and big, warm, moist, gooey chocolate chip cookies that melt in your mouth and all over your face.

    Super, super cute! I would totally do this if I hadn't spent so much money already. I love all my girls, but it sure adds up quickly having 7 of them.

    Thankfully I only have 3! I have a Jr. Bridesmaid too, but she's 10 so I'll make her one that's more age appropriate.

    Thanks for all the love, ladies! Hope my girls like them too!

    SO clever!! I did something similar called a "Sunday Morning Survival Kit" for the OOT bags (my mom didnt' think it was appropriate to call it a Hangover Kit considering plenty of older family will be staying at the hotels)... This is absolutely adorable for the BMs though.. I might steal your idea but on a smaller scale :)
