For instance, if you give rose colored soaps, write a note about how rose is the color of love and you hope this conveys your affection; give blue soaps as an expression of healing. This same idea works really well when giving something like socks, another practical gift. It's always the thought that counts, and adding a special note is one way to show just how thoughtful you are!!
