Your gift will be wrapped in tissue paper, tied with a ribbon and mailed in a bubble mailer. No pricing information will be disclosed. We will send you two photos – one of the finished item itself and one after it has been wrapped.

The small tag on the ribbon reads:
“A gift for your little one from [your name].”

The card is neatly tucked inside the ribbon and includes your personalized message. Card size will vary by the length of your message.

**Ribbon, tissue paper and card colors will vary.

Each item has a story behind it – whether inspired by one of my son’s favorite stuffed animals or by Cathy’s little obsession with robots, we’ve created unique, handmade gifts that you can share with the little ones in your life! Check out our newest additions at embeshop.com!

They say necessity is the mother of invention, and I would have to agree with that sentiment. I remember vividly one day back in May 2009 when Cathy and I took the kids on one of their first official playdates, and the idea to start a business together came about. In one way, it would help occupy our time as we were both out of work. It could even potentially bring in some income for us while we searched for that elusive job. But the best thing of all was that it allowed us to put our passion for creativity to work. And I’m not just talking about making cute, knitted and sewn baby items, but also the whole entrepreneurial aspect as well – Web site building, promotions, sales, marketing, and more! And so embe was born on July 15, 2009!

These past five months since the launch of our online shop has been very fulfilling. We learned a lot, met some great folks, and developed some partnerships along the way. We continually seek new ideas and are in constant amazement by the community of handmade crafters!

Looking ahead to 2010, we will continue to create, inspire and share our stories as we reach new milestones of motherhood. We look forward to introducing our “Spring” catalog in the coming months and welcome your ideas for what you would like to see. Stay tuned for sneak peeks and additional details…

We wish each and everyone a prosperous 2010 filled with love, joy and creative inspiration!

-Mary & Cathy
