Sending someone a box of sunshine

crafts

Have you all seen this box of sunshine idea floating around on Pinterest?

Box of Sunshine from HappyMoneySaver.com Save

It’s adorable, isn’t it?  I just loved the idea of sending someone a little package in the mail for no good reason.  Something to brighten their day.

I started collecting yellow things a year ago and kept them in a bag which I lost.  I have no clue where it went.

Have you seen a box of random yellow things?

Umm, no?

So I went out and bought more to surprise my best friend from high school who lives all the way in North Carolina and I never get to see anymore.  (Hi, Karen!)

Suggestions for a box of sunshine. Save

Inside her box of sunshine was:

-Cosmo magazine (the cover happened to be yellow!)

-Nail polish

-A Luna bar

–Spark

-A face mask

-Peanut M&M’s

-St. Ives face scrub

-Airborne chewables

-Chapstick

-Love necklace

I packaged it up in a little white box filled with yellow crinkle paper and printed the free printable from HappyMoneySaver.com.  It just so happened I had green and yellow patterned duct tape to seal it up.  It was perfect.

A little box of sunshine to brighten your day Save

She text me that she loved it and I know she had no idea it was coming.  Those are the most things to give people – the unexpected!
