For the Wedding Planner or The Bride to Be ... Bridal Survival Kits

My new friend and co-worker is also a wedding planner.  Her birthday was a few days before mine and I wanted to do something special for her.  I went to my handy dandy pinterest boards and came across a Bridal Emergency Kit on Project Wedding.  100 Layer Cake provided this super simple Bridal Survival Kit printable.  Let's just say my canvas bag met the iron and water leaked on it leaving a horrible water stain!  So I went to plan c and used a bag that had a cute saying on it that my amazing friend Amy gave me a while back.  It so saved me in the last minute to get this gift out the door!


Between the printer not worker, the iron on's not sticking and then the iron leaking this gift took me 2 days to get out the door and I missed her bday by a day.  At first I thought this is just not meant to happen ... LOL but I pushed through and I'm happy to say she loved it and she even passed one of the bags out to her bride that weekend!

This is a super simple one to make and so sweet to give to a bride to be.  Most of these items can be found in the travel isle at your local store or heck the dollar tree has a great travel section with name brand items.

What You Need (I made a few different bags to put together) :
Canvas Bag
Iron On 
Reliable Iron that doesn't leak
Printer
Clear Plastic Bags (Small 60 for $1 or Large 25 for $1 Dollar Tree)
Stapler
Card Stock

Here are the Bags I did:

Fresh Breath Saver:
Gum
Breath Mints
Tick Tacks (I didn't find)

The Oppsie Saver:
Band-Aids
Tums (just in case tummy ache)
Advil or Tylenol

Kiss Me Saver
Travel Toothbrush
Wisp Colgate Whitening Mini Brushes
Tooth Paste
Mouth Wash
Bianca Strips

Snackable Saver
Nuts
100 Calorie Packs 

Pretty Me Saver
Lotion
Nail Clippers
Emory Board
Cuticle Pusher
Cuticle Trimmer
Deodorant for those moments you need to feel fresh

Keep You Fresh Saver
Kleenex
Purell Sanitizer Packets
Stain Remover Pen
Superaway Lipcolor Remover

When All Else Fails .... (this is my favorite I came up with)
Super Glue
Chocolate
Note: If All Fails Super Glue it and Eat Chocolate! :)

I packed these up in a cute bag and put them in the mail to my co-worker she lives on the other side of the US like my bosses so I had to put it in the mail for her.

Here is my failed attempts!

All put together!

Since we are in the wedding season this really would make a great gift for a bridal shower or to give to the bride the morning of her wedding.  It is very thoughtful and I must say super cute!

Hope you make this for someone special!
