Hi Everyone !

I am in desperate need of some ideas and suggestions.

My dh is currently deployed overseas and the Family Readiness Group (think support group for family members) is doing a project called "message in a bottle" . Basically, it is where family members put together a Message in a Bottle, using a 2 liter soda bottle, for their service member, and the Group will send them to the service member.

Anyway, I've never done a message in a bottle before and they are due at TONIGT's FRG meeting (yeah, I've procrastinated).

Our instructions were to be creative, have fun with it, and the only thing we can't include is chocolate (it melts, lol ) .

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated !!!!!

Thanks-- L2L

Pictures, notes tied up with ribbons (all curled, think gift wrapping.
handmade coupons for things wanted (what ever) (Had to go through pour hole?) stick candy, gum (Trident, Orbit, skinny pieces).

Pack of Rollos mints, toothbrush, if opens from bottom, stationary, stamps, jack-knife. I'm out of thoughts, you're almost out of time.
