Many moms and caregivers alike can agree that the baby phase goes by too fast. In the blink of an eye, a newborn goes from a sweet innocent ball of love to a walking, talking character. There are various ways you can capture those sweet-smelling newborn days, but customized jewelry is one of the most popular. Let’s explore the different types of baby keepsakes you can make or purchase.
Lockets With Inclusions
Some of the most precious moments you’ll never forget may include a baby’s first haircut, first outfit, first movements, first bath—the list goes on. Inclusions from these special moments can be snippets of hair, small pieces of blanket or clothing, and a favorite bath toy. A way to capture the associated memories with these precious items is a pendant locket that houses the inclusion of your choice and can be worn as a necklace.
Name Specific Bracelets
Creating a piece of custom jewelry with your little one’s name on it is a unique and trendy way to accessorize with them in tow everywhere you go. You can also use professional-grade hand tools to create a custom baby name wire and set it in their room or attach a chain for jewelry.
Breastmilk Jewelry
Breastmilk jewelry is an incredibly unique and special way to capture the journey of feeding your little one. No matter how long you choose to breastfeed, the work and dedication it takes to produce milk and nurse is outstanding. Generally, most jewelers only request an ounce or two of old breastmilk. They will preserve the milk and then set it on a placement of your choice, including a necklace, bracelet, or ring.
In Memory Of
An unfortunate reality some face is the loss of their little one far too soon. Capturing the days you have with them through in memory of jewelry is a special way to keep your little one close to your body. You can use a miniature photograph, a strand of hair, or a fingerprint printed on paper and encapsulate the days with your little angel.
Birthstone Jewelry
A piece of birthstone jewelry is a simple way to honor your little ones. These small gems are timeless and effortless baby keepsakes that you can pass on for generations to come. Birthstone pieces come in a wide variety of items, from necklaces, rings, bracelets, and anklets. These are also unique items to use as accents to other special keepsakes.
With a great range of options to capture your baby’s first days, it can be challenging to decide what’s best. Luckily, there are so many ways to customize your jewelry experience, so pick an option that resonates best with you and your little one. And remember, some items are easy to DIY.
