HOW TO PREPARE YOUR HAIR, ASH AND BREASTMILK INCLUSIONS

Horsehair bracelets

For most of our bracelets we require hair approximately 18" in length, the thickness of your finger throughout its length, and ask that it be secured with a band at one end. We are able to wash the hair for you if required prior to making your bracelet. Any unused hair will be returned to you with your order.

​

If you have not got the minimum required amount of hair please feel free to contact us and we will be happy to discuss if it is still possible to braid you a bracelet.

Cremation ashes, hair and fur inclusions for jewellery

For cremation jewellery we ask for a teaspoon to a tablespoon of cremation ashes, a little more for larger orders of multiable pieces. You can send them to us in a resealable bag or container, or you can contact me and I can post out a small container at no extra cost if necessary. All remaining unused ashes will be returned with your order.

​

For fur/hair inclusions a small amount, 1-2 inches in length is all that's required. For Pandora style horsehair beads longer hair works better.

Breastmilk Inclusions

To encase your precious breastmilk in to piece of jewellery I will need a minimum of 15ml of milk. I recommend sending you're milk in a small collection tube or breastmilk storage bags, double bagged, clearly labelled and packed in a secure padded envelope or small postal box. We also recommend sending RM tracked 24 to ensure you're milk reaches us quickly and remains fresh.
