The Family Bead and Brush
More than twenty years ago, Jill Grillo began making jewelry and gifts alongside her mom, Lynne. What began as a creative pastime between Jill and her mom grew into something more as family and friends encouraged them to share their pieces, eventually becoming The Family Bead and Brush.
The business name and logo honor Jill’s family, especially her dad, whose Navy service inspires the brand’s color palette. Though Jill owns and operates the business, the creative influence of her mom and family continues to shape its spirit. Every piece is designed to connect, inspire, and delight.
Collections include:
• Morse Code Bracelets with hidden messages across themed lines: Game Day Glam (sports themed), By Faith, Not Sight (faith and devotion), Anchored in Hope (inspirational), Hidden Harbor (nautical themes), Charlie Mac (pet inspired), and Tango Foxtrot Bravo (honoring military service).
• Lit by Joy 18kt gold filled stackable bracelets are beautiful, meaningful pieces designed to inspire and spark memories, including the customer-favorite Catholic and Christian prayer bracelets.
• Coastal Creations hand painted shells bring a touch of the ocean’s tranquility into any space.
• The Joyful Gatherings collection features beaded utensils and serving pieces that add a thoughtful touch to special events and make meaningful gifts.
Their mission is simple: to bring smiles to people’s faces and brighten days, one meaningful piece at a time.
