Can I Include Fabric from My Baby's Newborn Hat/Clothing in a Ring or Necklace?
Yes, absolutely! We can seamlessly incorporate fabric from a newborn hat, baby clothing, or any other meaningful garment into a custom ring or necklace. We only need a very small piece of fabric, which will be carefully preserved within the keepsake stone to create a meaningful and lasting memory.
If you have a specific design in mind, feel free to share a photo with us, and we'd be happy to discuss the best options for your piece.
How Much Fabric Do I Need to Send?
Because our keepsake stones are delicate and intricate, we only require a tiny swatch of materialโoften no larger than a postage stamp. Any unused fabric sent to our studio will be safely returned to you alongside your finished jewelry piece.
What Types of Fabric Work Best for Keepsake Jewelry?
Most standard newborn clothing materials work wonderfully, including soft cotton, knits, fleece, lace, or flannel. Whether it is a hospital-issued newborn cap or a favorite worn baby footprint sleeper, our preservation process secures the fibers safely inside the stone.
Can the Fabric Be Combined with Other Elements?
Yes. Many parents choose to layer their baby's newborn fabric with other meaningful elements inside the same stone, such as lockets of hair, dried flowers from a birth announcement, or milk preservation powder.
How Do I Choose Between a Ring or a Necklace for My Fabric Piece?
Both settings offer beautiful, durable protection for your keepsake fabric. Rings allow you to look down and see your memory throughout the day, while necklaces keep the piece close to your heart. We recommend selecting the jewelry type that best fits your daily wearing habits.
How Should I Prepare and Package the Fabric for Shipping?
Place your fabric snippet in a clean, dry, sealed baggie before placing it inside your shipping envelope. Including a small note with your order number and any specific design preferences helps ensure our artisans craft your piece exactly as envisioned.
