DIY Treat Tray for Delivery Personnel

For as long as I can remember I’ve wanted to put together one of these treat trays. Every year I mean to, and every year it gets away from. But! I finally made it a priority, so I thought I’d share the process & result!

It’s so, so simple & a great way to support all of the delivery & mail personnel working extra hard during this season. Daisy isn’t old enough to understand yet, but it was fun to let her help me & would probably be even more fun to involve older kids. You can make your treat tray with any variety of different snacks, treats, and beverages. Here’s what’s in mine.

Supplies

  • Medium-sized basket from Homegoods/Marshalls ($12.99) you could also thrift this, or use something you already have at home

  • Water + sparkling water (with caffeine) someone else suggested Starbucks frappes or packets of water flavoring.

  • Cheeze-Its

  • Mini kind bars

  • Nut mix

  • I found these adorable mini glass jars of Nutella at target. I’ll link them so you can search your store. They would be great stocking stuffers, too! I paired them with Scooby Doo graham cracker cookie sticks

  • Ghiradelli squares, Hershey kisses, resees & mints

Directions

  • Arrange everything in the basket, in an easily seen & accessible spot on your porch.

  • Add a handmade or printable sign welcome them to take whatever they’d like!

That’s it! It’s so simple & so fun to make. Then I sit and excitedly wait to see what they take. JK. Kind of. I made a reel too, if it helps to see the process in video form. Find it on my Instagram here. If you decide to make one tag me! I’d love to see the finished product!

I hope you have a fun-filled, low stress week ahead as you prepare for Christmas!
