"Engelbreit began working for a local advertising company, Hot Buttered Graphics. Hoping to work as an illustrator of children's books, she shopped her portfolio around New York without success. She began working on greeting cards and her first nationally distributed greeting card featured a malapropism that played off an old saying, "Life is just a bowl of cherries", showing a girl looking at a chair piled high with bowls, with the legend: "Life is just a chair of bowlies." Her company, Mary Engelbreit Co. , was founded in 1982. It was located in Webster Groves, Missouri and then was moved to a former Greek Orthodox church in University City, Missouri in 1994. As of 1996, her company reported $86 million in sales per year. Mary Engelbreit stores were located in St. Louis; Schaumburg, Illinois; Dallas, Texas; Denver, Colorado; and Alpharetta, Georgia."
