The season of holidays is on, everybody’s choosing a vacation, a destination and many other things. You’ll need to pack your things into some nice suitcases, put your documents into proper covers and you’ll also need some travel bags to pack our toothbrushes, makeup, cosmetics and stuff like that that you may need and should always have at hand on a holiday. I’ve prepared a round of indispensable bags to have with you on holiday. Let’s DIY some!
DIY Toilet/Cosmetic Bags
The first craft for today is a toilet bag of a soft shape that is made of map printed fabric. The cool thing is that it’s rather large to accommodate everything you may need and even some unexpected things. I also love the choice of the printed fabric: maps feel so travelling-like!

Here’s a unisex travel toiletry bag made of navy fabric and some rope: DIYing it is very easy and doesn’t suppose much sewing. You may add some embroidery like in the source or leave it as it is. The color combo of navy and white and rope will make the toilet bag nautical-like, ideal for a seaside vacation!

Other DIY Holders
What can be more natural for morning than a towel? That’s why making a toothbrush holder of a towel you don’t need is a great idea. Make pockets for every toothbrush and paste and put them all inside. The holder can be secured with some ribbon, elastic or cord and can be DIYed in a couple of minutes. Enjoy!

A nail kit is a must for both a girl and a guy to keep the hands in order. This is a perfect nail kit craft for travelling, pink windowpane printed leather, cords and every piece inside is secured to make travelling with it more comfortable. It’s a great item for a girl as it’s pink and if you want a male version, go for brown or black leather, for example.
