Sweet Sixteen

My darling sister-in-law recently turned 16. I had some trouble coming up with something to give her. Then, I remembered the "survival kit" that I received when I was in her place a few years a go... So I amped it up a notch (or two) and came up with my own version of a "Sweet Sixteen Survival Kit."

I found this amazing box at ROSS and spent some time experimenting with different things to fill it up. I had my "Prince Charming" from my single days that I thought should finally be passed on... and I made her some custom jewelry, and (of course) made some cute tags with the "survival tips" to attach to everything.

Some of the items that were in this kit were:

Prince Charming- to remind you of the qualities you are looking for.

Body Lotion set "Pamper"- Take some time for yourself once in a while. 

Nail Polish- enjoy a little color in life

Jewelry- You are unique and very precious

Key- The Keys to your success are held by YOU!

Life Savers- Everyone needs a little help sometimes.

Kisses- For us to share our love for you. For you to share (or not)

Nut Roll- Its ok to be a little crazy sometimes.

Bandages- To heal any hurt.

Among a few others. 

If you want to use the tags for your own birthday (doesn't have to be a sweet 16) I have a little printable for you! All I ask is for a little comment love if you do use it! Let me know what you think!
