Housewarming Gift

My little sister just moved into her first apartment and I'm so proud of her. Moving is one of the scary things we all experience in life (and it takes a lot of work). I put together a little housewarming gift for her and I thought I'd share.
I wanted to make it practical and helpful, so I tried to focus on the essentials that everyone needs (but that we sometimes forget to buy):
--A set of 3 glass storage jars
--Natural cleaning wipes
--Meyer's dish soap
--Striped party straws
--Bag clips
--Kleenex packs
--LED flashlight
--Nails
--Lint brush
--Gorilla Glue
--Extension cord
--Tape
--Kitchen towel
I tucked everything into the jars and tied fun ribbons onto them. I wrote her a love note, and slipped everything into a reusable grocery bag. Super easy, cute, and I feel confident she'll use everything in there. I did my shopping at Marshall's, TJ Maxx, and Target, so the total was less than $25.

Have you given or received any cool housewarming gifts? I'd love to hear about them!
