    This would be great as a bridal shower gift. You could place the items in a decorative container/bag. Make a few additions/subtractions according to the bride's needs. Or even place some of the "generic" items in the bag and include this list for the busy bride.

    Hairspray is another option for controlling runs in stockings. I usually have a small travel size bottle in my purse, I just spray it right on my leg and it will kinda glue the run right in place. You may need a few "coats" of spray. Nail polish is the best but this is a great ulternative if there is none around.
