Do you have a sentimental flower, or flowers, you would like to have immortalized?
Flowers can be from bridal flowers that you want preserved into keepsake jewelry, prom flowers, engagement roses,
even a special memento, such as a 4-leaf clover or a lock of hair. I specialize in the preservation of funeral flowers
and I will work with you to create a very special piece of jewelry for you to cherish.
There are many possibilities for using your flowers to make a custom piece of jewelry.
I want to work with you to make your special piece of jewelry extra special.
I will list your options, but please do not hesitate to e-mail, or call me, with any questions.

If you are ready to order, you can either call me, e-mail me, or go directly to my secure shopping cart

Option#1
"Confetti Jewelry"
glass style

Flowers sealed between micro-thin glass.
You have the option of having a pin or pendant.
Matching earrings
are another nice choice.
This is a nice option for saving old flowers that have not lost all their color.
With this option the flowers are crumbled and are flat in design.

Price $46

This same style can be made in a 3/4" round design.
Price $50

FREE INSCRIPTION on back

Option#2
"Jewelry from your
own special occasion
fresh  flowers"

With this option, you will need to overnight express your flowers to me. Select a few [I won't need many] and cut off the stems.
Wrap your flowers loosely in tissue paper, or surround them with styrofoam peanuts. Do not put in a plastic bag as moisture can gather on the blossoms and turn them brown.
I will then carefully separate the petals and press them individually with special techniques that may be different for each type of blossom in your arrangement.
Or, and much less expensive for you, press a few petals on your own and then mail them to me!!
If you have questions on how to press them, please call me!

I can make jewelry from any special occasion flowers, such as bridal bouquets, graduations, anniversaries, romantic occasion flowers, and, for the sadder times, from funeral and sympathy flowers.

Price $50


This is an example of a  custom necklace made using your own roses. The background is actually a peach rose petal with red flowers reconstructed from red rose petals.
I used tiny pieces of Queen Anne's Lace as accents.

Below is another idea for a 1'x1.5" or a larger 1.75"x2" pin, which could also be a necklace.
I used red & peach roses, and delphiniums to make this.
Each tiny blossom is recreated from
your very own special flower petals!
I did add my own accents of Queen Anne's Lace [just 1 tiny blossom for the flower center!] and my own tiny ferns for the greenery.
It can be a 2 sided pendant with
real Forget-Me-Nots on the reverse side (pendant only)
The flowers are sealed between micro-thin lightweight glass.

Price $50  pin [1"x1.5"-1.75"x2"]
Price  $50 pendant
[1"x1.5"-1.75"x2"]

Option #3
"Re-hydrating
 Your Own Flowers"

I can take your flowers that have air dried and crumpled and recreate a beautiful heirloom pendant or pin for you to always treasure.

This is a very special and time consuming process. I actually re-moisturize your flowers and press them.
Then I recreate the flowers in stunning miniature design.
The flowers will look antique, as they are old and yellowed, but still will make a timeless keepsake.

Your flowers can be made
 into a pin or pendant, or earrings!

1" round, 1"x1.5", and  1.75"x2.5"

Now all items
and sizes are one great price!
Only $50

"Confetti Jewelry"
      resin style



There are many more options
using resin to seal the flowers.
The flowers are sealed within a sterling silver bezel cup with your choice of resin color.
I used white in the example.
Even if your flowers are all brown they would look nice in this style.
The flowers result in a convex display within the bezel.
You can have your flowers made into pins, earrings, or pendants.

Sizes: 1=10x14mm, 2=10mm,
3=8mm, 4=.5"x1",5=13x18mm
Each size can be pendants or earrings
Prices from $18-$36.

 

Jewelry above are in 13mmx18mm
 and 10 mm sizes.

"Special Mementos Pendant"

Wedding flowers and
sympathy flowers are not the
only things that can be sealed with resin into a keepsake necklace.
This customer's son found a
4-leaf clover that she wanted to save.
Doesn't it make a nice necklace?

I have made other interesting things into jewelry, even gold from gold-panning.
What would you want preserved?
Price same as "Confetti Style"
Just e-mail, or call me with your ideas.

Here is a pendant made from a rose from my mother's funeral.
They are now 9 years old and brown, as you can easily see.
But, they look nice made into a pendant!
This will look nice with
a brown outfit and I will
carry my mother a bit closer to me whenever I wear it.
Can be made into earrings and pendants from sizes below.

Sizes: 1=10x14mm, 2=10mm,
 3=8mm, 4=.5"x1",5=13x19mm
 Each size can be pendants or earrings
 Prices from $18-$40

 

**NEW**
I can encase your flowers artfully in a resin paperweight.
 [2 3/4" diameter at base]
These make nice
gifts for the men who obviously
would not wear the jewelry.
Was your loved one an avid fisherman? I can encase a fishing fly in the resin...just use your imagination to make this a very special keepsake!
The paperweight makes a very nice idea for brides to use to save some of their bridal bouquet flowers!
 I can encase your wedding photo on the base.
I do all the editing...I just need a picture e-mailed to me!
