I love stockings, growing up
we always got four stockings, one on Christmas Eve night when “Santa” would
stop by my Grandmother’s house and each of us grandchildren would sit on his
lap and be given a large man’s foot worth of candy, underwear, hygiene products
and usually one cool thing to put a smile on your face. The next stocking would
come Christmas morning after Santa had visited our home, this stocking would be
filled with more fun items and candy.
The next stocking would come a little later in the day at our Great
Grandparent Kinney’s house, usually these stockings were a little more boring
than the first stocking and the only really interesting part would be to see
who would get the coolest stocking (they were rotated around for a while until
eventually each great-grandchild had a name on their stocking, killing the
surprise). The last stocking of the Holidays would come on New Year’s Day with
all of the “leftovers” from Santa’s Workshop or maybe some pretty sweet Boxing
Day sale deals to ensure everyone ended up with the things they really wanted
for Christmas.
Again, I love stockings. I
love Christmas. This year I only was on the receiving end of one stocking. I
filled a stocking for my boyfriend with all of his favorite things and his
parents sent a stocking back from Calgary with him for me.
This was one amazing
stocking; my boyfriend’s mother may just be the Queen of Stocking Stuffing.
Everything in it was gold, including one of my new favorite things. The absolutely brilliant Pinch Provisions
Minimergency Kit (For Her of course).
Every item, big or small, was
wrapped in this stocking so when I got to the ‘Minimergency Kit’ I had to stop
and read the entire listing of exactly what it was, pure genius. The
‘Minimergency Kit’ truly is mini, measuring in at 3.5” x 2” x 2” and is home to
17 beauty and personal care items.
Here are just some of the
emergency items included in this amazing little bag (pictured to the right):
-Breathe freshener

-Floss
-Clothing mending kit (yes, a
kit inside a kit)
-Lip balm
-A tampon
-Hair spray
-Clear nail polish
Yes, the Minimergency Kit is
a BIG help for those tiny emergencies that seem to ruin everyone’s days. It is
a little silly how confident it makes me feel just having it in my purse.
Naturally, loving my
Minimergency Kit as much as I do I had to check its mother company our online,
Pinch Provisions. They also make emergency kits (in mini and full size) for
men, teachers, moms, back to school, hooking your wedding party up before the
wedding, brides, grooms and sending your kid off to college (there may even be
more). They even sell refills for your
kits too!
I think this is the perfect
item to put in a stocking; it is one of my favorite things from this Christmas
and an all-round brilliant idea from Pinch Provisions.
