Sometimes shitty days can spring upon you when you least expect it, and a cuddle or three-cheese pizza aren't always close at hand. That's why it's a clever idea to have a contingency plan for when parking tickets, spilled coffee and dog poop-on-the-shoe strike you down.

Melbourne gal Alexis Winter has thought all of this through, creating the perfect little package for days that don't go quite as planned: a handmade envelope containing a positive-thinking, good vibe-filled, guaranteed-to-cheer-you-up letter.

You can buy one of these happy-making packages from Alexis' Etsy store, or check out the rest of her illustrations over on alexiswinter.com.
