Meet Kelly Frega: From Hobby to Mastery
Kelly’s journey with calligraphy began during her childhood in Baptist school, where she first picked up a calligraphy pen. Her passion was reignited in 2012 when she hand-addressed her own wedding invitations and created custom place cards. What started as a personal project quickly grew into something more when friends noticed her talent and encouraged her to offer calligraphy services professionally.
Driven by her determination to perfect her craft, Kelly immersed herself in refining her skills. She sought out top-tier calligraphy mentors, engaged in online and in-person courses, and even expanded her repertoire by mastering hand engraving during the COVID-19 pandemic. This addition to her services—alongside her signature calligraphy—marked a turning point for her business, allowing her to cater to more unique and high-end requests.
