Thinking of your colleagues when you sip a cup of chai in isolation? Want to reach out to your loved ones and ensure they are safe? Whatever it is that you want to say during times of quarantine, Dr Bhau Daji Lad Mumbai City Museum has a card for you. There's one with a teacup from their collection, and another with a shield to signify safety. There's also one that you can use to thank essential workers. "Quarantine cards reimagine the collection to make it relevant for today. We have all been social distancing from our friends and families and will continue to do so for a while. This is a way to let them know we are thinking about them. These cards signal a ray of hope that we are all in this together and will come out with greater appreciation for the simple things we take for granted," says Tasneem Zakaria Mehta, honorary director and managing trustee, Dr Bhau Daji Lad City Museum.

Say it as it is
Looking to send wishes centred on your loved one's safety in the pandemic? Keeping in sync with the times, these cards reflect millennial-speak, and say it in plain words. Urge your loved ones to wash their hands, eat healthy and take care of themselves. Or simply remind them to stay home or that they are "tough cookies" and will get through this.

Self-care matters too
Have a lot of thoughts that you can't comprehend during this period? You are not alone. What if you could pen them all down, tuck them away and deal with them once the crisis is past us? Gift website Oye Happy lets you write to yourself, for the future, upload it and once the lockdown reopens, receive a card.
