We all have really hard times in our life- including me- but one thing that has helped me through those times is the support and love I’ve received from my loved ones – including a box of a sunshine.

A call, a hug and even a text message from someone has meant the world to me during my saddest moments.

But have you ever received a “Box of Sunshine”?

I have and I can honestly say it meant so much to me and definitely lifted my gloomy spirits.

The idea behind a “Box of Sunshine” is to fill a box (or basket, tub, bag, etc.) with fun, bright and yellow goodies to help “brighten” someone’s day– get it?

Once you start looking there are so many fun goodies out there that are yellow in color- or that go along with sunny, glowy theme.

I’d love to share a few fun ideas so that the next time someone you love is in need of a pick me up you won’t have to waste time brainstorming ideas and you can refer back to this list and get that Box of Sunshine to whoever needs it!

Ideas for a Box of Sunshine

Gum

Candy

Candy such as Dots, Lemon-heads, Salt Water Taffy, Peeps, M&M’s, Butterfingers and Sugar Daddy’s all boast colorful yellow wrappers and would be the perfect addition!

Candles

Lotion

Cookies

Think Vanilla Wafers, Lemon Oreos, or Honey Graham Crackers- a quick walk down the cookie aisle and you are sure to find something yellow.

Kool- Aid

Lip Balm

Art Supplies

Flowers

Popcorn

Chips

Funyuns, and Lays both sport yellow bags- grab a couple of those to add in.

Tic Tacs

Nail Polish

I found yellow nail polish for under $2 at my local store– such a great deal!

Tissues

Small tissue packs sometimes come in colorful packages- find one that is the most cheery and bright

Soap

I love lemon scented soap and you can find soap that fits that description anywhere.

Uplifting Quotes

A quick look online will yield several uplifting and positive quotes. You can print one out, freehand it or just simply include the quote in a card. Some of my favorites are:

“Joy always comes after sorrow”– Henry B. Eyring

“What defines us is how well we raise after falling”– unknown

“Fall seven times, stand up eight.”– Japanese Proverb

Note Cards

Anything bright and cheery will do if you can’t find anything yellow.

Beauty Products

Glow by Nature Made^® Which can be found in the vitamin/supplement aisle of Target ( as well as online) is a great example of a fun product to include. I was really excited to try out for myself!

Just the fact that it has the word “Glow” in it makes me feeling cheery already. And it’s something someone will actually really appreciate and use.
