Bucket of Sunshine

A simple sunny post today!

My sister-in-love's birthday was last week.
She has a vivacious 3 year old, a beautiful (sleep depriving) 9 week old and
a husband that travels A LOT.

I tried to think of a gift that was meaningful,
wishing I could fill a debit card up with sleep hours,
but since that isn't possible, I went with the route of bringing a little sunshine into her day.

Target is the place for yellow these days
and with one little trip there I was able to put together an
entire Bucket of Sunshine as a gift!
 A lemon verbena candle, lemon candies, happy notecards, lemon cream cookies, 
my favorite lemon butter cuticle cream, sun shiny earrings, a bracelet 
and a yellow frame with one of the few pictures we have taken together, 
all tucked into a metal bucket I found in Target's dollar section. 
It was so much fun to put together and actually spilled a whole lotta sunshine into my day too!


 I used PicMonkey to make the treat labels and the Bucket of Sunshine printable.

A quick dig through the junk drawer resulted in a pair of chopsticks perfect for the job
of holding up the sign.
Now isn't this happy? And sunny? And such a fun gift to give or receive?
I may be on a color-themed gift kick, watch out!
