College Survival Kit DIY Graduation Gift

College-Survival-kit-for-High-School-Graduation-Gift-1

Every year, you seem to end up with a graduate or two in your life. The gift giving at graduation is SO HARD – straight up cash is easy, but it lacks thoughtfulness and personality. As always, our most recent crop of high school babysitters are graduating and moving on to college, so we’ve got to put something together for them…and what better than a college survival kit?

This kit is meant to be a little funny and a good way to deliver some of that aforementioned cash to the grad with a little bit of flair.

COLLEGE SURVIVAL KIT MATERIALS:

  • Large jar (buy it here)
  • Free printable graduation gift label (download here)
  • OnlineLabels.com label (buy it here)
  • Yellow paper shred (buy it here)
  • Pain killers
  • Tic tacs
  • Energy shots
  • Starbucks gift card
  • Rolled up dollar bills
  • Pens

If you don’t purchase the pre-cut label I used in my template, print to full sheet label paper and cut everything out from there. You can order labels singly or in bulk at OnlineLabels.com, and I find it convenient to always have a few sheets of the full sheet labels around.

As for how I put them together? There’s a video!

Meet Paula

My father came home from a trip for work when I was a little girl toting a huge (to me) book of fairy tales. I was instantly smitten with the beautiful illustrations and the stories that came alive from those worn pages. My favorite was always the frog prince…my mother read it to me over and over (and over.) Read More…
