About
Hi! I'm Em, creator behind Mgnoliasun.
Born in Milwaukee, WI I am a Midwest girl, who lived learned and traveled the world, found her way back home, married her high school sweetheart and became Mama to Eila & Leo. I’m an artist, dreamer, do-er (to a fault,) lover, maker, mover and shaker. I have done a lot of things with my life but the greatest thing yet has been becoming a Mother.
With that being said, over the past few years becoming a Mama took up A LOT of space. With two littles in tow life can get a little, shall we say, chaotic.
These days I'm feeling good and my creativity is coming back so I decided to start a business with mama’s & littles in mind!
Hand embroidered knits, 100% cotton, custom creations for you and yours.
I truly enjoy creating these items for you! Seeing them on you & your babes gives me all the feels, it is an honor.
STAY TUNED I have LOTS of ideas of other things to come!!

What's up with the name?
Mgnoliasun was born of the idea that anything is possible if you can imagine… an adage that was instilled in me from a very young age by my late Aunt Kathy a.k.a "Mgnoliasun." She always pushed me to pursue my dreams and supported my creativity. I wanted a piece of her to always be a part of that.

What drives me in my work?
I am always teaching myself new skills and tricks. My products are made-to-order and may vary piece to piece due to the handcrafted nature of my work. Some may view this as "imperfection" but I like to view it as a sort of beauty that lends itself to each one-of-a-kind creation…and I know my Aunt K would agree.

Where do I find inspiration?
I find inspiration literally everywhere. Sometimes I have to slow my role or else I will be doing too many things at once. I am hoping to partner with a few mama-owned conscious businesses this year to really narrow down my offerings and focus!
