❓ Frequently Asked Questions

💎 What is the jewelry made of?

Each piece is thoughtfully handcrafted with high-quality materials:

Leather: I use Roo leather, the most durable for jewelry and everyday wear (unless otherwise specified).

Pearls: Genuine Freshwater, Saltwater, Tahitian, Akoya, Keshi, Biwa, and more.

Gemstones: Authentic stones like Larimar, Turquoise, Moonstone, Amazonite, & more.

Settings: Choose from a wide variety of metals including:

• .925 Sterling Silver
• Gold Plated (Yellow, Rose, White)
• 9K, 10K, 14K, 18K & 24K Solid Gold
• Limited options in Stainless Steel, Tungsten, Wood & Platinum 

🕊 Cremation & Breastmilk Jewelry

• Cremation Jewelry: Made with the ashes you provide, cast into a high-grade epoxy and set into your chosen setting.
• Breastmilk Jewelry: Your personal milk is preserved and never mixed or bulk processed. Once received, it is immediately labeled, sterilized, and individually preserved. Drying takes up to 2 weeks before your keepsake can be created.

💡 All items can be made with or without DNA.

 

🌿 What else can I include?

In addition to cremation ashes and breastmilk, you can include:

• Lock of hair
• Umbilical cord
• Encapsulated placenta (must be encapsulated before shipping)
• Grave dirt
• Dried flowers
• Glitter, flakes, tints, chunky glitter

Each inclusion is treated with care and can be combined to create your one-of-a-kind keepsake.

 

⏳ What is the turnaround time?

• Leather Jewelry: Ships within 1 week unless materials are needed for a custom order.
• DNA Jewelry: Turnaround time is typically 6–12 weeks from the date your inclusions are received.

📦 I will keep you updated throughout the process.
🚫 All sales are final. Delays do not qualify for refunds.

 

🌟 Will my jewelry look like the photos?

No two pieces are the same - each is custom and handmade. Variations in color, shape, and finish are expected. Small imperfections may occur but never affect the beauty or integrity of your keepsake.

 

🧪 Can jewelry tarnish or oxidize?

Yes, just like all metal jewelry, even gold.

To prevent tarnish or oxidation:

• Keep jewelry dry
• Store in a cool, dark place
• Use the original box or individual soft pouches

🛑 Rose/yellow gold plated jewelry may fade over time. For lifelong tones, choose  10K gold or higher.

 

🧼 How do I clean and care for my jewelry?

Avoid exposure to:
Alcohol, sanitizer, bleach, tanning beds, paints, perfumes, and harsh chemicals.

Precious Metals:

Clean gently with warm water and mild soap using a soft cloth or toothbrush. Avoid scrubbing epoxy stones.

Leather:

Condition monthly with pure shea butter, coconut oil, or mink oil. Leather hue will deepen in color with time.

Pearls:

Apply perfume, hair spray, and lotions before putting on pearls. Wipe with a soft cloth after wear.

Epoxy Stones:

Do not soak or submerge. Clean with a damp cloth and gentle soap only. Epoxy is water-resistant, not waterproof.

 

📦 Where do I ship my inclusions?

Once you place your order, I’ll send shipping instructions via email.

Breastmilk:

• Minimum 15–30ml (1oz) recommended
• Double-bag in milk bags, place in bubble mailer
• Always include tracking

Cremations:

• ¼ to ½ teaspoon
• Double-bag in a small Ziplock, place in bubble mailer

📦 For extra help, I offer:

• Prepaid Label Only – $10-15
• Shipping Kit (bags, label, mailer) – $25

Never send the last of any inclusion.

 

🍼 Can I use more than one milk?

Yes! There’s a $20 preservation fee per additional milk used in your jewelry.

 

🌳 Wood Pieces

🥤 Tumblers

Ready-to-ship tumblers ship as-is. Custom tumblers are epoxy-coated and all unique.
Care Instructions:

• Hand wash only

🔁 What is your return & cancellation policy?

Because of the personalized nature of each piece:

• No returns or cancellations
• All sales are final

Settings are ordered immediately after your purchase. If a setting arrives TO US, damaged or incorrect, I’ll gladly work with you to resolve the issue after the item is returned to the jeweler.

📌 I do not set accent stones - only the DNA stones. If one of my stones is lost, I will replace it (shipping fees apply). For costly ( gold pieces), consider jewelry insurance.

💍 Know your ring size before ordering! Visit a jeweler or craft store ( anywhere that sells jewelry). Bracelets, anklets, and necklaces must also be ordered in the correct size.
