This week for our annual church Young Women Camp, we're making sure our girls are prepared. One thing we had each of them make is a first aid kit. They're super easy to make and I think they're pretty cute, too. For each kit you'll need: a square potholder (we got ours at the dollar store) 6-10 snack sized ziplock bags (use what you need according to the amount of supplies you want to go in it) first aid supplies (small or individually wrapped items are good--ointment, bandaids, gauze squares, latex gloves, hard candies, Q-tips, matches, duct tape, medical tape, ibuprofen, etc.) a button sewing machine, thread, & straight pins You see how to do this, right? Well here are some tips: Before you sew the bags on, make sure the loop on the potholder is on the side that the zippers are on so you can button it closed. The bags are really slick, so pin them into place at the sides where you start and end sewing. Use a button that is big enough to hold it closed but small enough to fit though the loop. It's pretty fun to flip through and see all of the supplies. I bet this would be great for other things too--a travel sewing kit, travel jewelry organizer, organizing buttons... What else would you use one of these for?
