Meet the Founder 

Welcome to By Grace Glow Gift Box and Candles—I'm Sirlene, the heart behind the brand.
I’m a Brazilian-American, language teacher by training and a lifelong maker at heart. After moving to New Jersey and approaching my fifties, I felt a clear nudge from God to build something that blended purpose, craftsmanship, and care. What began as a small experiment at my kitchen table—pouring natural candles and assembling thoughtful gifts for friends—became By Grace Glow: a place where every present feels personal.

My design philosophy is simple: elegance, intention, and quality. I hand-pour small batches with a coconut–soy blend, cotton wicks, and premium fragrances, then finish each piece with refined details—ribbons, handwritten notes, and color stories that match the moment. I believe gifts should carry meaning; they should say “I see you.” That’s why we personalize palettes, scents, and messages for the person you love.

Faith guides my work. I pray over my business, pursue excellence, and serve with honesty. You can expect clean ingredients, beautiful presentation, timely communication, and a warm, human experience—from first message to final unboxing.

Thank you for supporting a small, woman-owned, immigrant-founded business. I’m honored to help you create memories and celebrate the people who matter most.
