Wear the things you can't let go of.

I turn breastmilk, ashes, a lock of hair, your baby's first hat, a pregnancy test or flowers from your bridal bouquet into rings, necklaces and earrings you can wear every day. The moments that mattered stay close to you, instead of tucked away in a drawer.

What I can preserve

If it held someone you love, I can set it in a stone.Breastmilk is where I started, and it's still most of what I make. But you can send me almost anything small and meaningful, and you can combine them in one piece.

Client love

Breastmilk

"When I tell you I am OBSESSED, I mean I cannot stop gleaming over this ring. I couldn't be more proud of myself. This ring is a symbol of the beauty of motherhood."

Rusti H.Ring
Newborn hat

"My husband ordered a custom ring made from my baby boy's newborn hospital hat. The end result is absolutely stunning, and absolutely worth the wait."

Charissa G.Ring
Breastmilk and flowers

"The stone in my ring included petals from a rose from the bouquet I received when our daughter was born. I swear the pieces are arranged to recreate a miniature of the rose!"

Riss S.Rings
Breastmilk

"We have 3 babies, and for every one of them I have ordered a ring as a presentation. All the pieces always came back very special, with amazing quality."

Carlos S.Rings
Ashes

"Ordered the Circle of Love ring for my best friend of over 34 years, with her late mom's ashes in it. She said it was one of the most special gifts she has ever received. Now she has her mom with her daily."

Jamie L.Ring
Breastmilk

"Don't go with someone who's got a faster turnaround. Her wait is long because so many mommas send in milk every week. She keeps you updated to the T, and then you get a tracking number when she ships it."

Samantha D.Ring
Breastmilk

"I've gotten so many compliments, and everyone is surprised when I tell them what it's made out of."

Nitasha W.Ring and earrings
Ashes, breastmilk and hair

"We lost our newborn son after a very rough pregnancy. She made the most beautiful piece with his ashes, my breastmilk and his hair. She truly heard my story. My sweetest Kolter will always be close to my heart."

Baeleigh B.Necklace
Grave soil

"I had grave dirt from my Mamaw and Papa put in my earrings, and from both my grandparents and both my stepdads in my mom's ring. It was so worth the wait! We absolutely love them."

Hi, I'm Kelly.

When I was nursing my last baby, I felt an overwhelming sadness that this chapter was ending. I wanted something to hold onto, but the breastmilk jewelry I found was out of reach for most moms. So I learned the craft from one of the first breastmilk artisans in Australia, and I've been making pieces by hand ever since.

Over the years, customers started asking if I could add a lock of hair, petals from a bridal bouquet, or the ashes of someone they'd lost. Now that's a big part of what I do. Whatever you send me, I handle it like it's the most precious thing you own, because it is.
