Cremation jewellery?

Has anyone done this? It's been nearly 4 years since my nan died and I finally feel ready to do something with her ashes, which we mixed with my granddad's.

I really, really want to take some of their ashes and get some jewellery made out of it. She regretted not travelling during her lifetime and I have a couple of trips planned for next year (plus a couple more in the works!) and I would love to take a bit of them with me, so that they get to go on some adventures together.

Has anyone done this? Who would you recommend using?

Yes - I had a pendant made with my mum’s ashes. It gives me comfort when I travel, like she’s there with me.

I brought a memorial pendant, its big enough to hold some cremains. About an inch long. It was from Etsy x

@ThatLadyLady - When my Dh lost his father we still had his mother's ashes and then his father's. . I had ( and it only takes a spoonful of each ) a pair of cufflinks made for him. It might not be to everyone's taste but I had a pair of cufflinks made for him - one with his mother , one with his father and he quite likes them. It is not obvious when you look at them what they are . Anyway , here is the link to the company and I have asked my mother if I can have a spoonful of Dad's ashes.

I’ve done this. I had a necklace pendant and a paperweight from Ashes Into Glass.

My mum would probably be baffled, as I hate wearing jewellery! But the paperweight is on a bookshelf in my living room, I like knowing it’s there. And the pendant will be worn on special occasions.
