Our Charms - The Magic Touch That Turns Glasses Into Something She Treasures
Every charm in our collection began as a whisper from childhood itself. When I first started to think about Once Upon a Charm, I didn’t begin with sketches or trend boards. I began with my daughter, Evelyn.
The ballerina twirls she loves to perform in our living room, the countless fairy houses we build together beneath the trees, the mermaids we pretend to be while splashing in the pool, even the cupcakes we bake and the ice cream we sit and enjoy together on the hottest of hot days.
Each charm is a reflection of the games we play and the milestones, like losing her first tooth, we hold close to our hearts.
I have, and continue to, treasure all of these moments. As my work progressed, I quietly realized that these moments had evolved into the heartbeats of my designs.
These are not just decorations for our girls' glasses.
They are fragments of girlhood magic, hand-painted and cherished.
Designing these charms was my way of bottling up the wonder of childhood.
My wish is that that each time our girls put on their glasses, the world shines not only sharper, but sweeter.

How fun!
The puppy charm was the very first one my daughter chose. She said it reminds her of our family dog, and now she never forgets her glasses because ‘my puppy has to come with me.’

Her little butterfly
My daughter’s favorite charm is the butterfly. She says it makes her glasses feel pretty, and she loves showing it to her friends. Something as simple as this made a big difference in how she feels about wearing them.

Cupcake Pick
Who wouldn't want a cupcake on their glasses? My daughter has such a sweet tooth, so she picked it right away. She says it makes her glasses fun, and she actually shows them off now instead of hiding them

The I Can charm means a lot to us. My daughter wears it on tough school days and says it helps her feel brave. It’s a small thing, but it gives her glasses a much bigger purpose.

Mermaid Magic
Hands-down the mermaid charm is her favorite. She loves mermaids, so now her glasses feel like they’re a part of her world. It turned what used to be a fight into something she’s excited about.
