Box of Sunshine

APRIL 23, 2013  /  ADINA BAILEY  / 

One of our friends recently lost her job, so we decided to make her a "Box of Sunshine" filled with fun and practical items. We had a great time shopping for anything yellow and putting it together in a box!

You can print a pre-made label for your box here.

Do you know someone who could use a "Box of Sunshine" today? Here's a list of items that often come in yellow to inspire you as you begin to create your box:

• Candles
• Socks
• Kitchen towels
• Wet Ones
• Celestial Seasonings Chamomile Tea
• Bubbles
• Packet of Sunflower Seeds for Planting
• Flower pots
• Hand soap
• Hand lotion
• Gatorade
• Note cards
• Pens/Pencils
• Raisinets

My family is planning to create more "Boxes of Sunshine". What other items could we add to our list?
