In 1981, I discovered the world of medical equipment and supplies. At a very young age I knew I wanted to be a fitter of prosthetics for women after breast cancer. Becoming a Board Certified Fitter in 1982 validated my passion, and I longed to create a business solely devoted to providing a kind and comforting atmosphere for women before and after breast cancer diagnoses. In 1993, Elegant Essentials was born out of my home in Painesville, traveling to each woman’s home.
Today, after three decades, we proudly celebrate Elegant Essentials with two beautiful boutiques, both elegant and essential! We provide a nurturing atmosphere for breast cancer survivors and others, fostering camaraderie and support. To mark this milestone, join us for a day of celebration, with a Mimosa bar, elegant luncheon, and our inspiring guest speaker, Robin Swoboda.
As we cherish 30 years of supporting these women, we reflect on the countless lives we’ve touched. Elegant Essentials is more than a business; it’s a place of hope and transformation. We invite you to celebrate with us and those survivors in your life; mother, daughter, sister, aunt, grandma, friends and family!
Sincerely,
Shellie Graf
Founder & Owner, Elegant Essentials
