I need some ideas!

[Diamond Delta]

I am going to make little bags for the ladies in my chapter with inexpensive, but meaningful items. Each item will have a reason that it is in the bag and each bag will have a little types note that states "this is for this". I need some ideas for the bags. I am going to give them at our next meeting. Thanks very much and here is what I have so far-

Hugs and Kisses (Hershey's) because everyone deserves love.
A penny-for good luck
A quarter-to remind you that you can call on me anytime
A bandaid-to remind you that life has its bumps but love can mend them.
A gold star-to remind you that you are special and unique

OK-I need some more ideas.Thanks!!!!!

edited to add -Mustard seed for faith & A pencil to record the good times (THanks!)

More chocolate.

I think that its already a good idea, and that you can probably just run with it.

Mustard seed - for faith

[WhiteDaisy128]

A Pencil to record all the good times.

[CatStarESP4]

A small notepad (like those you would use to record your homework assignments in school) to record the good times on!

*A smiley faced sticker because everybody needs to see a friendly face when they're down.

*A heart pillow because everybody needs love and comfort.

*A packet of tissues with your sorority on them to remind them that your sisters are there for you at their worst, or best (added bonus: they're cute!).

[Diamond Delta]

where can you get those tissues? My sorority is national but not NPC so sometimes businesses do not carry stuff for us.

[sairose]

oh what a cute idea!! I'd like to make those for our gals since they get initiated in about 2 weeks. Keep the ideas coming, because these are really cute!

Get the regular purse-sized Kleenex ones, and put your sorority sticker on it.

I have a list of these things, but I can't seem to remember many:

*bubble/chewing gum - because friends ALWAYS stick together!
*rubber band - A friend will always help you "snap back" to your normal self when you're down.
*tea bag - When you're in hot water, decide to make tea, instead of a fuss!
*sugar packet - You're so sweet!
*salt packet - You are the Salt of the Earth.


I'll try to remember the rest. I know one is a Tootsie Roll lollipop, but I forget why.

Here's a place where you can get them or if you want something a bit cheaper, do what honeychile said.

I have a cheesy idea:

A piece of taffy: for staying sweet in sticky situations
It will probably work with any sort of sticky candy though.
