At Roman, we got to meet artist Gina Freehill, the talent behind the Peace by Piece giftware line, the Language of Love wedding line and the new Tender Embrace baby line. Tender Embrace is more about mom and dad than it is about baby. Gina took us through the line highlighting the special elements of the sentiments. The retailers who happened to be viewing the line at the same time were drawn to her personal explanation of the products. The design elements capture the idea of scrapbooking art. One of the central pieces of the collection is a shadowbox like gift that conveys the sentiment “I’ve become a father/mother.” It holds a photograph of the new baby and intended to sit on the parent’s dresser or desk top or hang on the wall.
