Hello, my name is Emma, and I am the founder of 🧵My Beloved Keepsakes✂️, a Galway‑based business specialising in handcrafted:

🧸Keepsake Bears
🧶Kee

psake Cushions ,
🛏️Keepsake Blankets ,
🐾Keepsake Animals,

and other commissioned pieces created from cherished clothing — including:

🤰👶🎀Baby’s first outfits,
👰🤵🧚‍♀️🎄🩰Special Occasion outfits
👔👗👚Loved ones’ clothing and
👮‍👩‍🎓👩‍⚕️Uniforms. After losing my mum in my early twenties, I held onto her clothing for many years, unsure how best to honour it. During maternity leave, I discovered the world of keepsake creation and was inspired to transform meaningful garments into lasting, comforting pieces — from my mum’s clothes to my own baby’s first outfits. This experience led me to establish My Beloved Keepsakes, where I now support families across Ireland in preserving their most treasured memories. I hold a QLS Level 3 Sewing Diploma (Distinction), which underpins my work with strong technical skills in garment construction, pattern work, hand‑stitching, fabric handling, and sensitive restoration. Every item I create is crafted with care, respect, and attention to detail, ensuring each piece reflects the emotional significance behind the fabric. My business is proudly neurodivergent‑led, rooted in compassion💕, sustainability♻️, and thoughtful craftsmanship🧵. I collaborate with families and funeral homes to offer comfort through beautifully made, personalised keepsakes — whether created from a loved one’s clothing, a baby’s first clothes, or uniforms that represent years of service, identity, or pride. Always happy to connect or chat collaborations. Explore, follow, and share on Social Media: Stories stitched with love. Website: www.mybelovedkeepsakes.com

Some clothes are more than clothes.

They hold the quiet, fleeting moments of babyhood.
The tiny sleeves.
The first cuddles.

The days that felt long… but passed so quickly.

And sometimes, letting them go doesn’t feel right

Thank you all so much, I’m very grateful for all the good‑luck wishes last night and to my family, thank you for your endless love and support.

I may not have come home with an award last night, but I came home full of pride — and with two framed finalist certificates that mean the world to me.

They represent the recognition of what I’ve built over the last two years: rebuilding our family’s life and rebuilding My Beloved Keepsakes from the ground up when we moved to Galway, it gave me the opportunity to begin again. As a disabled and neurodivergent entrepreneur, I discovered that doing things differently isn't a weakness — it's a strength.. Every bear, every cushion, every story shared with me has shaped the heart of this business.

I truly believe my mum, my guardian angel, has guided me on this journey, giving me the courage to step outside my comfort zone, embrace opportunities I never thought possible, and live life for both of us. If I can make a difference to someone else when they need it most, then that's what it's all about.

I hope this reminds others that there is no single path to success. You may have to rebuild yourself more than once, but small beginnings can lead to extraordinary places.

It was such an empowering evening celebrating the incredible women I’ve grown alongside this past year. Their wins were so deserved, and cheering them on felt just as special.

My Beloved Keepsakes grew stitch by stitch, story by story, shaped by the families who trusted me with something precious. Being a finalist feels like a milestone, but the real honour has always been the work itself.

Tomorrow is a celebration. Tonight, I’m simply grateful.

I am featured in Galway Advertiser this week, highlighting the Network Ireland Galway Businesswoman of the Year Awards 2026 finalists.

You’ll find a small feature about My Beloved Keepsakes in 2 Categories and all the women recognised in this year’s Awards.

I’m grateful to have my work included alongside so many inspiring women in business.

This journey has been shaped by love, healing, and the quiet strength that came after losing my mum so suddenly in my 20's.

Knowing my mum, my guardian angel is guiding me on this spiritual path and giving me the courage to step well out of my comfort zone and getting out there and live life for both of us, and helping make a difference, to others too, when its needed the most, is what it's all about.
