gift idea- Mom's Survival Kit

Friday, December 9, 2011 12:01

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

I was trying to come up with something to give a friend from church for Christmas.

She has older kids & teenagers & spends lots & lots of time driving kids here and there.

So I thought a little kit of the “car essentials for mom” would be fun & something useful.

Here’s what I came up with…

My items all ready to go…

Mom’s Survival Kit

{for the car}

Contents…

chapstick
hand sanitizer
kleenex
band aids
tylenol
hand lotion
wet wipes
hair elastic
post-its & pen
throat lozenges
mints
nail clippers
chocolate

I found the little cosmetics bag at Walmart for around $7, and everything fit inside, except the chocolates. So I just put those on top, then tied the ribbon around and added the bow with some hot glue.

I left the tag that came on the bag & just added patterned paper on both sides. Then made a simple label for one side & put a little distressing ink around the edges.

It’s a pretty simple gift, but I think any busy mom “chauffeuring” her kids around so much would appreciate it!
