College Back to School Care Package: Gather Your Supplies
Gather these supplies to create your college back to school care package.
Supply List:
White Cardstock Paper
USPS Medium Flat Rate Box – available free at the post office (the printables are designed to fit this size box, but you can cut them to any size you wish.)
Something that is the bomb: Bombas socks, lip balm, or bath bomb
Gift card for gas for the “Keep on Trucking” sticker
Something for their crib – anything they can use in their dorm room or apartment. I chose this cute Chef was Cute Kitchen Towel for Mel’s son (the recipient of our sample)
Coffee pods or grounds, something time management, or a school supply for the “Time to Boogie” sticker
School supplies
Lots of snacks to kick their year off right.
Another helpful item for you is a paper cutter to cut out the tags and the box decorations. The paper cutter is especially helpful if you are having other moms over to create spring finals care packages.

Print the stickers and tags and attach to your items with fun ribbon.
Add other items to your box that your student will love and will help them as they start classes.
Silly puns make going back to school something to look forward to. You can print the tags on cardstock or on printable sticker paper depending on how you want to attach them to your gifts. I like to do a combination of both.
College Back to School Care Package: Assemble Your Box
- Get your box decorations and tags in our store.
- Follow the instructions included with the decorations and tags.
- Tape or glue your box printables. I scotch tape mine to the box. I know some people hot glue them, but they don’t have to stay on the box forever, so tape works fine for me.
