Frames Designed as If She Dreamed Them Herself

Once Upon a Charm turns ordinary frames into keepsakes of wonder, with a patent-pending interchangeable charm system that lets her adorn her glasses with what she loves most. Each charm is a tiny window into her world, full of wonder and shaped by what she dreams about in the quiet of her day. Created by a mom whose daughter wears glasses, our frames were born from a heartfelt wish: to reimagine eyewear so girls would treasure it, not dread it. These aren’t just glasses. They’re her once upon a time.

Our Story

Where the Magic Began

It started with a quiet wish and a little girl named Evelyn. When my then 4-year-old daughter needed her first pair of glasses, nothing felt quite right. The frames were too big, too bold, too grown-up for her sweet, delicate face.


With a mother’s deep love and a daughter’s quiet glow, Once Upon a Charm was born-to transform children’s eyewear into something enchanted, magical, and full of joy.
