About this template
Year-end gifts go wrong in two ways: ordered too late, or given without a note. This project starts six weeks out with the list, orders in time, and makes the delivery a visit or a call rather than a courier.
Tips from the template
- Three tiers; decide who is in which before you shop.
- Handwrite the notes; it is the only part they keep.
- Deliver the top tier in person.
