For decades Annalee has helped celebrate and commemorate special memories and milestones by designing keepsake gifts. Celebrating graduations are no exception and are a long-standing tradition at Annalee. During graduation ceremonies we tend to look forward but sometimes it’s also fun to look back and share a few good stories.
