How about a handwritten note to go with that custom quarantine gift box from Batch? Don't mind if we do!

Since mid-March 2020, we’ve all been living, loving, and trying to find ways to celebrate at a (social) distance during the COVID-19 pandemic. This quarantine life has left all of us looking for reasons and ways to celebrate. Batch has considered it an honor and a privilege to help you send a little handcrafted, handpicked happiness in a gift box to your friends, family, coworkers, clients, and other loved ones during this period of isolation. 

One of our greatest joys is including a handwritten note—your words in our writing—in every Gift Batch. Putting a personal touch on your curated or custom gift boxes lets your recipient know you put extra attention and care into your Gift Batch. If you don’t consider yourself a wordsmith, check out what others are writing for all sorts of special occasions, from birthdays and anniversaries to “just because.” Read on to get some inspiration for your next handwritten gift message! 

happy birthday

“Happy birthday in quarantine!! We can’t sit to celebrate when we are all on the flip side of this! We love you!”

“Happy Birthday! I hope that these reinforcements help this quarantine period go by quicker!”

“Hope you have an amazing quarantine birthday. Love you and miss you!”

“Please FaceTime us when you use these for your birthday bash. We love you and miss you.”

“Wishing the happiest day to someone who is always fabulous!”

encouragement

“Thinking about you during this crazy, challenging time. I wish you didn't have to go through all of this, but if anyone is tough enough to push through, it is most certainly you!”

“Your favorite Nashvillians just want you to know that we are thinking of you and your family during this crazy time. Hope these treats will sweeten your day :-) Thinking of you! PS. Sorry we can't ship you booze. Your first drink (or 3) in Nashville will be on us!”

work from home

“Thank you for rolling with the punches during our transition to working from home. Excited to see everyone in the office again.”

“Thanks for your flexibility with working from home! I can't wait to be back in the office together when it's safe to do so.” 

congratulations

“Wishing you a ‘sweet’ anniversary in ‘quarantine’! Love from Nashville”

“So so so excited for y'all and can't wait to celebrate in person! Love you so!”

missing you

“Here is a little bit of Nashville sent to you!! We are so sad we could not come this year.  We miss and love you!” 

“Hope you have a wonderful and relaxing day. We love you and miss you, looking forward to seeing you when this is over!”

“I think and pray for you everyday and look forward to when we can see each other in person. I’m sending virtual hugs until then.”

“Miss you! Until I can give you a real hug, consider this a box full of hugs.”

“Sending you some love during these crazy times! Miss you both!”

“Sorry you guys can't hit up my favorite city! We will be back and you'll be partying on Broadway soon enough! Hope this helps hold y'all over.”

“We are sorry your Memorial Day travel plans got cancelled.  We miss you guys and will make up for lost time celebrating when we are free to roam again!”

“We thought you might miss being in TN with us as much as we miss you, so enjoy these treats to sweeten up your day. Thank you for being you!”

thank you

“Thank you for being you. I am so very lucky to have you as a friend.  Happy continued quarantine baking! (The pencil pouch is just for you, my dearest.)”

“We wanted to send a thank you your way and let you know how appreciated you are! It has been such a pleasure getting to know you and work with you this past year. Thank you for the trust you placed in us and we look forward to working with you again!”

“You all are so awesome! Thanks for being there when we could not be. We sincerely appreciate all that you have done during these last few weeks.”
