Bon Voyage Gifts

A gift is a nice way to see a person off. Something that you know the person will be able to use is always helpful, and the person will appreciate that you cared enough to make sure they would be prepared when they reached their destination. A great way to do this is by packaging a gift yourself for the person!

Package Gift Step One: The Container

A collection of products that you put together for the person really shows you care, and is fun to make! Depending on where the person is going, purchase a bunch of products they'll need (example: If the person's going to Miami, sun screen. If they're going to Alaska, hand lotion), and put them in a container they can use during travel (example: a cute purse, duffel bag, or fanny pack). Depending on the container you use, it will help you determine the amount of items you'll need for your gift.

Package Gift Step Two: The Staple Items

When you've picked a container, it's time to consider what you'll put in the package. A good way to start this is consider where they're going and what they'll be doing. If this trip is a relaxing vacation or travel experience, to follow are some ideas for what to put in the package:

Shampoo/Conditioner (travel size bottles)
Sunscreen
Sun Glasses
Hand Lotion
Asprins
Gloves
Band-aids
Hand Sanitizer
Juice Boxes/Bottles of water
Non-perishable food items
Magazines/Crossword Puzzles

Package Gift Step Three: The Additions

After you've added a few of the above items to your packaged gift, you can start to get creative and add other things that are specific to the person's interests and hobbies. The best part about packaged gifts is that you can be as creative as you want, and really make the gift specific to them!
