I was just thinking about an idea I've had in the back of my mind for a while now: The bad day basket. Ever had one of those days where nothing has gone your way and you just want to hide you head in the sand? What if we had a little basket or tote we could pull out of special treats to brighten our day a little bit? Below are a few ideas for putting in such a basket. This would actually make a good gift for someone going through a rough patch, or even a teen or tween who needs a little pick-me-up now and then.
1. CD or mix tape - depending on the person this could be anything from inspirational or spiritual music to happy pop music
2. Chocolate! Or other favorite candy. Maybe even a special brand you wouldn't normally purchase
3. Bath Bomb or Bubble Bath (LUSH has bath bombs filled with confetti!)
4. Scented lotion
5. Scented candle
6. New book (anything from a novel you've been wanting to read to a book of inspirational quotes)
7. Fluffy socks - or some other item that makes you feel pampered
8. A journal
9. Copy of a nice letter from a friend, a love letter, a postcard, or a memento of something you're proud of.
10. Scented candle
Any other ideas?
