Introduction

Hello and welcome to our shop! We hope you love our creations as much as we do. Please don't hesitate to send us a message if you have any questions. Our email account is: [email protected] Our love of nature and hand crafting beautiful keepsakes has prompted us to open our small home based business! We work in a variety of mediums and love to explore new ideas. All of our items are found, crafted, and/or altered by us. We love the area around are home and have found it endlessly inspiring. We spend much of our free time sharing our love of nature with our family. These adventures give us more than just the things we find but also priceless memories and moments to teach our children about the natural world around them.

We may be able to re create comparable pieces or alter existing inventory to suit your needs.

We will create a listing for the project at the quoted price. We will keep you informed throughout the creation process. When the item is completed, we will share photos of your new piece(s) and review details via message, and then ship the item. All of our pendants are presented on a chain, ribbon, or leather cord. Please let us know which you prefer if your preference is other than what is described in the product description. SIZING Sizing can be tricky online! Please make sure that you know your size and fully read product descriptions. We will do all that we can to accommodate you. We may be able to alter pieces to meet your size but first you need to reach out to us and let us know. If you have any questions at all please feel free to send us a message. Caring for you piece- Many of the materials we use are natural found materials and recycled or re-purposed elements. These items may change over time with natural wear and exposure to skin and environment. You may like these changes as your piece ages! Occasionally metals can age and tarnish, if you prefer that your pieces be returned to a shiny appearance then a gentle cleaning with a diluted lemon juice solution using a q-tip or cotton ball can accomplish this. Our pieces are artistic creations and thus not necessarily meant to be submerged in water or worn during an activity that would generally be considered a possible detriment to a piece's quality and integrity. For example we recommend that rings be removed prior to washing dishes or gardening. Wearing pieces while swimming (especially in salt water or chlorinated water) may do irreversible damage depending on the materials. If something happens to your piece please contact us. We may be able to help walk you through repairing any damage or cleaning or we may be able to provide you with replacement elements if something is lost or damaged.
