Simple Sympathy Gift Idea

A Peek at the Fun: This simple sympathy gift idea is just something easy to do for a friend who is going through a rough time. Simple and sweet and easy to put together.

Recently I had a good friend who was facing a hard, sad day and I wanted to do something for her. I knew that I couldn’t take the sad away, but I wanted her to know that I was thinking of her and that I cared, so I decided to put together a sweet little sympathy gift basket with a fun poem to go with it to let her know. A little something to brighten her day.

This is probably best for someone who is having a rough time that isn’t too heavy. It’s a light-hearted way to brighten her day.

Sympathy Gift Idea:

Just simple gift basket filled with fun things to help your friend smile.

But with this fun poem:

Roses are Red
We Know That You’re Blue
A Little Something to Say
We’re Thinking of You!

Then I filled it with-of course red roses to match the poem, tissues for the sad day, chocolate ice cream and spoons because that’s how you sooth a sad soul right? And then just a few fun treats.

I packaged it all up cute and took it to her and her family that day.

You can fill yours with anything that will make your friend smile, even just a little.
