As part of one of my random acts of kindness, I created a basket of sunshine for a woman at my sister's church. I made the basket for her, her son, and her husband. I saw the idea around Pinterest as a box of sunshine. I used a basket instead. I liked seeing all the yellow out in the open!
I started writing a list of all things yellow while I was at work. It was pitiful. I decided to just walk around Target and see what I can find. Lucky for me, a lot of good things are yellow!
The stores I bought from were Target, Cost Plus World Market, and Big Lots.
Here's my loot of all things yellow:
- rubber ducky - Cost Plus
- Crayola crayons - Target
- Crayola markers - Target
- post it notes - Target
- dinosaur stickers / Car stickers - Big Lots
- a candle - Big Lots
- a box of golden Oreos - Big Lots
- lemonade mix - Big Lots
- notecards - Target
- EOS chapstick - Target
- Sally Hansen nail stickers - Big Lots
- a glitter headband - Big Lots
- a slinky - Cost Plus
- basket with filling, cellophane & twine - Cost Plus
I will definitely be making this again.

So cute & thoughtful!
ReplyDeleteYou're so thoughtful!!! My basket of sunshine would absolutely have to include David Beckham and/or Adam Levine....not too sure they can fit into a basket though...
ReplyDeleteSo thoughtful!! Sucha great idea
ReplyDeleteSuch a great idea. I'm sure you could do this with a person's favorite color as well. :)
ReplyDeleteMy mom used to send me themed care packages when I lived in LA. Sometimes I'd get a box full of all green items, other times it'd be blue or yellow. I always looked forward to receiving those. Seems like it'd be fun to make -- guess I need to send someone a care package soon!
