How to Make a Hangover Kit

Today I wanted to share my favorite craft that I recently made for someone: A Hangover Kit.  I'm not even sure where I got the idea for it, but this kit would be perfect to give out at a bachelorette party, 21st birthday, wedding, or any other fun party event!  To be honest it will even work for a little 'get well' kit if someone is sick, so it can really do double duty.


Craft Supplies:
-A Box (I used an old handbag box)
-Black Paint
-Paint Brush or Sponge
-Ribbon
-Hot Glue Gun
-Paper (to print labels)

Box Supplies:
-Water Bottle
-Sports Drink
-Protein Bar
-Aspirin
-Pepto Bismol
-Lip Balm
-Band Aids
-Eye Drops
-Hand Sanitizer
-Mints
-Assorted Tea Bags
-Tide To Go Stain Pen
-Hold/Cold Pack
-Popcorn

Instructions:
Tips:
-With the tea: I wanted an assortment so this is how I put them together!
-With the paint: I did two coats of Elmer's Art Tempera Paint (with dry time in between), but it came out very streaky so I switched to my favorite Premiere Acrylic Paint & it had a much nicer finish.  Make sure to allow the box to completely dry!
-With the ribbon: I glued the ribbon along the top & along the seem of the inside box to hide paint mistakes & to overall make things look nicer.
-With the contents: Make sure to arrange them nicely!

 These are all the steps & supplies for the perfect hangover kit!  Like I said this can be given as a gift for a multitude of occasions, & is something that you can personalize.  I think that all of the work that goes into this makes for a special gift that anyone would love to get!  If you want any of the documents for the labels or for the note inside, or if you have any questions feel free to email me.

On a separate note I hope that you are all liking the changes around here!  I had so much fun redoing my design over the weekend & am loving how it turned out.  I just feel like this is just so much more me with the pink, I do not know how my previous design did not have my favorite color in it!  Thanks for stopping by & have a great day!
