This is a far from original idea, but in this year of home deliveries, we wanted to do something to thank all of the delivery drivers who have often been our only link to the world (or at least that’s how it seemed!). We put out a cooler of cold drinks and crate of snacks last summer, for the same reason, but I wanted to create a new sign for Christmas.
I made two versions, portrait and landscape, so you can click on the image of the one you’d like. We filled our crate with chocolates, sour gummies, nuts, chips, and granola bars, with drinks and candy canes next to it (because it wouldn’t all fit). The crate was too deep, so we just filled the bottom with crumpled packing paper to lift everything up.
It seems odd not to put out individual gift bags for our UPS, FedEx, and postal carrier…but we’ve had so many deliveries, with Amazon and food deliveries thrown in, too, this year, that I have no idea how many different people are actually delivering happiness to our house! This is a VERY small token of how much we appreciate them, so if one of your loved ones is a delivery person of any kind, give them an extra hug from us!
Awww, what a cute idea. We’ve gotten to know Mr. Brown really well this year! May just steal this idea. Thanks Megan!
