A Basket of Sunshine
After enduring months of cold, dark, dreary days, it can be easy to feel like the sun may never shine again. Putting together a “basket of sunshine” is a thoughtful way to spread some cheer and remind a friend that sunnier days are just around the corner. The concept is simple: gather a collection of comforting things in various shades of yellow.
To make it feel even more special, you can bundle the items and tie them with twine and even add a dried flower here or there. To get you started on your own basket of sunshine, here are some items to look for.
