About Us

From Sorrow to Grace – A Journey of Faith, Family, and Beauty 

Hello, I’m Melissa, and these are my beautiful daughters, Madeline and Mary. In May of 2003, our lives were forever changed by the sudden loss of my husband. At the time, our daughters were just seven and three years old. In the midst of unimaginable grief, I was forced to re-examine every part of our lives—emotionally, spiritually, and financially. It was my Catholic faith that sustained me and gave me the courage to move forward. 

🌟 A Spark of Hope 

With the loving support of family and friends, I began creating Catholic and Christian jewelry in 2006. What started as a small dream soon became a calling. I was inspired to design timeless, faith-filled jewelry using antique and vintage medallions of Saints, Angels, Mary, and Jesus—each piece telling a story of beauty, history, and reverence. 

The Saints, with their perseverance through trials, became a deep source of hope for me—and I wanted to share that hope through design. 

💗 Faith, Family & Full of Grace® 

As a single mother, Full of Grace® was truly an answered prayer. It allowed me to work from home, care for my children, and create meaningful pieces that brought joy and encouragement to others. 

Today, my daughters are grown and married. When I look back, I say with a full heart: 

"Thank you, Jesus, for inspiring me, giving me purpose, and holding my hand through the dark years." 

In 2014, another prayer was answered when I married Bruce, a kind and loving man who embraced our family as his own. With Bruce came two bonus sons, two wonderful daughters-in-law, and even more love in our lives. 

💼 Our Mission Today 

Through divine guidance and years of hard work, Full of Grace® has grown beyond what I ever imagined. Today, we design, manufacture, and sell our jewelry: 

All jewelry is designed in our Plano, Texas studio, and manufactured in the USA. We proudly operate under a US patented trademark and a strong foundation of spiritual and professional ethics.  As the founder of Full of Grace®, I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business from the University of North Texas, and I’m committed to excellence in every piece we create.
