At Renesting Project, every detail matters. Each item we provide serves a purpose: to transform a house into a welcoming, comfortable home. One of the ways we do this is through our household item kits, which simplify our services and ensure that each client receives everything they need to settle into their new space. Every month in our Essential Kits Series, we want to highlight a kit we send out: what’s in the kit, why it matters, how it’s packed, and its impact.
To start the series, we’re excited to highlight our Linen Kits, which include essential items for bedrooms and bathrooms.

Pre-packed Bed & Bath Linen Kits
What’s in a Linen Kit?
Our Linen Kits are thoughtfully packed to meet both functional and aesthetic needs, providing a sense of comfort and warmth. Here’s what’s inside (if we have it in inventory):
Bed Linens Kit:
- Throw Blanket: A cozy touch to add warmth and style.
- Mattress Pad: Essential for comfort and mattress protection.
- Sheet Sets (2): Always ready for a clean and fresh bed.
- Blanket, Quilt, OR Comforter: Providing warmth and personal preference options.
- New Bed Pillow: Because everyone deserves a fresh, supportive place to rest their head.
- Optional Items (if in stock): Decorative pillows, bed skirts, and other extras that make a space feel special.
Bath Linens Kit:
- Shower Curtain, Liner, and Rings: For both form and function.
- Bath Towels, Hand Towels, and Washcloths (2 each): Soft and absorbent essentials for hygiene and comfort.
- Bath Rug: A small but impactful addition to prevent slips and add warmth.
- Optional Items (if in stock): Soap dishes, dispensers, or other accessories to complete the look and feel.
The above lists are printed on the neon labels you see in the above photo. This makes it easy to identify what kit it is and if anything is missing from the kit!
Why Linen Kits Matter: Impact
Imagine moving into a new space with bare essentials or even nothing at all. A Linen Kit provides more than functionality; it offers dignity, comfort, and a sense of belonging. A well-dressed bed can make a world of difference, turning an empty room into a personal sanctuary. A thoughtfully stocked bathroom ensures cleanliness and ease in starting or ending the day. These kits aren’t just about providing household essentials—they’re about creating a foundation for a new chapter. When clients receive these kits, they’re receiving more than blankets or towels—they’re receiving a sense of stability, security, and care. They allow clients to bathe and sleep in the comfort of their dwellings with items that are THEIRS.
How We Pack Them
Packing a Linen Kit is an act of care and intention. Once incoming donations are cleaned, folded, and sorted by size and function, volunteers pull items from the shelves that coordinate and make sense for the gender and age of the person they’re pulling for (or their favorite color if they’ve included that in their application). The selected items are packed in a clear bag and tied with a linen strip. Bonus items like decorative pillows or soap dispensers are added when available, providing an extra touch of personalization. Each kit is neatly organized, making it easy for clients to unpack and settle in.
We’re grateful for the donors and volunteers who make these kits possible. Your contributions ensure that every family we serve has the opportunity to feel at home.
