Celebrating 2023 | A Special Christmas Letter from Melissa
As we get ready to turn the page on 2023, and look forward to all of the newness that 2024 will bring, we wanted to share with you a special Christmas message from our owner, Melissa:
2023 has come and gone, and all I can think is - wow! This year was filled with ups and downs, which are to be expected when you’re running a small business. The blood, sweat, and tears we put into designing our line for the next season are always worth that roller coaster when we can finally get them into your hands. But this year felt extra special. Not only did we expand our line to include more of your favorites, but your constant feedback helped us navigate through crazy trends, questionable colors, and stay true to what we want this brand to be about. And that’s you!
We want you to look as great as you feel. We want you to have the softest, most comfortable, most flattering styles possible. And we want to invite you into a bigger mission to help those in need, all around the world, as you shop with us.
As we settle into the Christmas season and reflect on all God’s done for us, I want to take this chance to say simply - thank you. Thank you for your consistent support and encouragement. Thank you for choosing to spend your hard earned money on clothing that makes a difference, and was designed with you in mind. Thank you for helping this small business support an incredible team of people who love to serve. And thank you for pushing me along when the days are long and hard. God gave me a dream and this “accidental company” 12 years ago, and having your support truly means the world to me.
We wish you a Christmas full of joy and peace, and a very blessed New Year. I can’t wait to show you what we have coming for you in 2024!
With grace,
Melissa

I love selling your pieces and making a difference.
Thank you for having such a beautiful heart.
Merry Christmas.
THANK YOU for all you do to make sure we not only Love What we are wearing, but are comfortable at the same time!! Also, for the styling tips, as sometimes it’s nice to step out of our comfort zone, and still look great!!! Thank you!!
Merry Christmas, Melissa! Thank you and the Grace and Lace team for a year of comfort and style. Earlier this week, my sister in law, who has been going through a lot with her aging parents, complimented my Merry sweater. It was sold out in her size, but I was able to track it down from a boutique, and it’s out for delivery today. So thank you, too, for helping me spread a little Christmas cheer! She will love it!
Thank you for your beautiful letter. You and your organization inspire me so much. Your dedication, strength and commitment are so appreciated. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Blessed & Happy New Year too.
My twin sister found your business during her 4 year battle with colon cancer. She sent me many of your items just because she thought I would like them. She fell in love with all your products and loved how they made her feel. She bragged everytime she was wearing one of your products. She passed on October 27th this year and as hard as it is to celebrate christmas I knew i had to purchase as much as I could from you to share with our family. I will continue to buy whenever I can because everytime I put on something of yours I see her smile. Thank you for giving her comfort and happiness. Happy Holidays!!!
