Saw It, Pinned It, Did It- #19

I really think you should join me in linking up with Katie & Stephanie for SPD. I would love to see your project!
 
I must admit, I didn't find this project on Pinterest. Although, I believe it is absolutely Pinterest worthy and I might just pin my own picture...is that allowed? Oh well, I'm doing it anyway and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I really can't take credit for this cute idea. I actually copied it from a girl who made it for my sister-in-law's bachelorette party. I knew the moment I saw it that I was going to steal the idea for the next bachelorette I knew. Now that my friend is a married woman, I assume it's okay to post this picture of the gift I got her even though she will probably kill me.
 
 
Step 1: Find an already cute tissue box, or decorate an ugly tissue box with cute paper. Mine was already cute so I didn't have to do any extra work.
 
Step 2: Buy a few different pairs of cute undies, bras, or nighties and tie them together in a strand with tulle.
 
Step 3: Stuff the strand into the tissue box.
 
Step 4: Tuck tissue paper into the top of the box.
 
Step 5: Make a card and decorate the outside as you please....VOILA, you're done. Easy as 1, 2, 3.
 
 Getting ready to open her gift. Yes, she opened gifts in a mini van because the restaurant was closing and they kicked us out. And yes, we stayed in the mini van until 2am having "girl talk"...a successful bachelorette party if you ask me!
The end result.
 
My sis-in-law opening up her tissue box. That's when I learned about this genius idea.
