Purolator and Michaels are Encouraging Gift-Givers to Get Creative

— November 23, 2020 — Art & Design
To celebrate a new partnership, one that brings Purolator package pick-up and drop-off services to over 100 Michaels retail stores across Canada, Purolator and Michaels are making it easy for people to create and send personalized shipping packages this season. In all, there are 13 limited-edition festive art boxes designed by Canadian artists from diffeent provinces and territories. The shipping boxes are dressed with designs that depict cozy winter scenes, friendly animal characters, seasonal motifs and color-in shapes that help people send out holiday gifts in style.

To go along with the artist-designed boxes, which can be found at many locations nationwide, there's a Design-a-Box Sweepstakes that will give one lucky creator a grand prize of $1,000 worth of Michaels supplies, plus free shipping (up to $1,200) with Purolator.
