Holiday stress, anyone? Perhaps a jar of Pinch Me Therapy Dough would help? "A squishable compound that’s designed to channel relief through the senses, naturally. This placating putty was developed using the proven scientific methodology of color and scent as they relate to relaxation-all in the convenience of a portable tin. Think of it as a handy little mood-shifter." Shown is the spa fragrance, with lavender; it also comes in Sun, Holiday, Cafe, Citrus, Spice, Chill, Ocean, Beach and Tropics. $24.99 at Pinch Me. Hat tip to Hajusuuri!
