Friday's Features

If you are new to The Gift Closet, you will soon learn one of my passions is promoting other Female & Mom-prenuers! So, every Friday, you can count on me introducing you to a couple of new entrepreneurs that I have met online!

Today I would like for you to meet Gwenn Mitchell. Mom-prenuer and proud owner of Brown Bag 'Em! BrownBag'em provides creative, fun and inspirational "messaging on a bag." All of our messages promote a positive attitude to encourage and nurture your child's self esteem, talents and intellectual growth.
Gwenn's Inspiration:

"BrownBag'em, was created in 2007, after an endless search to find inspirational and educational messages on brown paper lunch bags. As parents, we know that loving words are critical for cultivating a happy and fulfilling life for our children, however, with our busy lives juggling careers, kids, and carpools we often forget to stop and let them know just how important they are to us.

The bags were created by chance. At the time, my daughter was experiencing separation anxiety, so I would write her encouraging notes and put them in her lunch bag. One day however, I could not find a piece of paper, so I quickly scratched a note with a cute picture on her brown lunch/snack bag. When she took the bag out at school, some of the children started asking her if they could have it. She came home that day and asked me if I could make the other students one, and that is when I got the idea for BrownBagem. We love what we do and we hope you like it too! We are always creating new designs, so be sure to visit us at info@brownbagem.com."
