A beautiful way to remember a loved one, whether it is a person or pet.
This ring is made using all sterling silver. The band is made with a thick 14G sterling silver wire and the cremation stone is set in an 8mm sterling silver heart bezel.
Please leave your color choice(s) and if you’d like the ashes visible or not in the personalization box on Etsy or the comment section at checkout on my website.
If you’d like no color added please leave the comment “No Color”.
If you are adding hair/fur to your cremation piece please comment how you’d like the hair placed in your piece- scattered, straight in the middle, off to the side.
The color chart is in the listing photos and you an use as many colors as you’d like. For color and style examples please visit the Gallery page on my website. www.tarastorckdesigns.com
All of my keepsakes pieces are made using a jewelry grade resin and the inclusions that you mail to me. (All inclusions must be mailed to me, they can not be added in after the stone is made.) *Mailing instructions are sent at the bottom of your confirmation email once you place an order.*
For cremation pieces I only need 1/4-1/2 a teaspoon, this is plenty for several pieces. (For human ashes please order directly from my website www.tarastorckdesigns.com Etsy prohibits the sale of these items.)
Any of my keepsakes can be made using pet/human ashes, hair, fur, whiskers, dried flowers, fabric, dirt, pregnancy caps and more. Please reach out if you have a question about an inclusion. I do not use breast milk at this time.
For any of the inclusions listed above I only need a very small amount. If you only have a small amount of your inclusion please do not send me all you have incase something would happen on it’s way to me. *I do recommend always mailing them with tracking.*
My jewelry is completely made by hand, making each piece one of a kind and made specifically for you. I understand that ordering something like this is very difficult so I want to make the process as easy as possible. I do kindly ask that once you place your order, please mail your inclusions within 10-15 days of your purchase.
My current turn around time is 5-6 weeks from the day your inclusions are received.
All sales are final on custom made pieces.
6-8 weeks
Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply. I'm not responsible for delays due to customs.
Your inclusions will be safe and taken care of while they're in my care.
1/2 a teaspoon of ashes is more than enough for 3-4 pieces. If you order more than that I may ask for a whole teaspoon but never more than that. Anything that is left over once your order is finished will be mailed back with your jewelry.
All mailing instructions are sent the bottom of your confirmation email once your order is placed. Please read the entire confirmation email. I will also send you a message with the instructions.
A "prepaid kit" is not automatically mailed with your order, if you'd like a kit sent to you, you can purchase one from my website listed "Prepaid Shipping Kit".
Yes, absolutely! I can use fur/hair in any cremation piece listed instead of ashes. The only thing I suggest is if you'd like the fur/hair to show over a color, pick a color that is much lighter than the fur/hair. For example if you send me dark fur I would recommend using the white diamond shimmer background for it to show.
Yes, absolutely! Just leave a comment on your order that you'd like it to match the eye or fur color and that you will send photos. Once your order is placed, please send me 1-2 photos and I will match it as best as I can!
Depending on the amount of orders I have, my turn around time is about 5-6 weeks from the day I receive your inclusions. Once your order is shipped you will received an email with tracking information. Please allow 24 hours for the tracking to update once it is shipped.
The flowers must be completely dried before mailing them. I only need a couple petals from each flower you'd like used in the jewelry. You can put the petals in a folded piece of paper and place them in a regular mailing envelope. Where to send them will be sent with your confirmation email once you place an order.
To press dry the flowers you can place them in a heavy book, so that they are completely flat, for a week or two. There are several other ways to dry flowers but I think press drying them keeps the color the best, as long as they are tightly pressed. The other options are available on Google.
Yes, sterling silver can tarnish over time and/or turn your finger green. It turns green from a chemical reaction between the metal and your skin. The 7.5% of copper in sterling silver reacts with the pH levels on your skin to create the green color. Some people have a problem with silver tarnishing more easily than others.
To remove this tarnish you can simply use the polish cloth that I send with every order or buy a dry buffing jewelry cloth from Amazon or Walmart.
"Gold fill" is a solid layer of gold pressure bonded to a base metal that can be silver, copper or brass. Gold fill metal is much thicker than plated pieces. "Gold plated" is usually brass or copper that is dipped or electroplated with and typically rubs off quickly exposing the metal underneath. I do NOT use any gold plated metals in my jewelry.
I only use 14k Gold Filled metal and if taken care of properly it can last many years! To clean it you can simply wipe with a polishing cloth or clean with warm soapy water.
Yes, of course! There may be a resizing fee depending on how much it needs resized. Please order the 'Ring Resize' listing on my page.
Yes, any of my memorial pieces can be made using more than one inclusion. Just leave a comment at checkout what inclusions you'll be sending.

I will start off by saying that I was very leery to send my fathers ashes by mail and especially to a stranger. I looked at several shops before choosing this one. I couldn’t have picked a better shop! I received my ring yesterday and have been staring at it since. She did an AMAZING job! The ring was beautifully done! Tara’s customer service skills are TOP NOTCH! If you are debating on whom to trust with your loved ones ashes, she is the person! Do not hesitate to place an order. Thank you so much for handling my father with care! I hope he behaved for you! 😂
