Our top 5 ‘Ways to Celebrate’

This time, we’re sharing our top 5 ‘Ways to Celebrate’

Spring is here at last! The warmer months bring many reasons to celebrate and share gifts with our friends and loved ones. Chalice’s gift catalogue is your best place to find gifts for the baby showers, Baptisms, weddings, birthdays, and graduations you have on your calendar. 

Our catalogue gifts are a ‘win-win.’ A child, mother, or family in our sites receives a gift they urgently need. Here, your loved one receives a beautiful card that tells them what you gave on their behalf. 

P.S. Our 2023 spring gift catalogue is here! 

Here are just a few ways you can make this the best spring and summer yet!
