The Gifts

The best gifts actually make the world a better place.

Handpick from 31 gifts to fill your calendar.

We’ve carefully designed gifts brimming with love and cheer. These include holiday-inspired crafts to share with family and friends, thoughtful surprises to make loved ones smile, and delightful goodies to brighten your day.

We’ve also partnered with amazing charities to create “good deed” gifts. When you pick a good deed gift for your calendar, a portion of sales goes to that charity – directly supporting their work. Inside the calendar, each good deed gift is represented by an ornament with an accompanying card – a reminder of the good the gift served. Examples of the ornaments are shown alongside the gift descriptions below.
