WELCOME

The warmth from the light of our loved ones is eternal!
They are always with us
.

If you are curious, or to better understand my mission, you can learn what the hearts are made from on my About Me tab & in addition, answers to some commonly asked questions can be found on my FAQ’s page.

I honor the precious memory of those who have passed on in the physical sense, with personalized ornament style hearts in their name. To say goodbye to a loved one, a pet or an unborn child is simply heartbreaking; an unbelievable pain I wish none of us ever had to endure! Often times as well we may just find ourselves missing that special someone who may have moved away or with whom we have lost contact. No matter the size, resource, elaboration or even cost, all remembrance is priceless. Due significance given to our treasured relationships & the ongoing need of having our dear ones acknowledged & respected, with names spoken & stories shared proves most comforting! My hope is that with this special keepsake comes a level of peace to help heal your heart, or perhaps the heart of someone you care about! In my days of moving forward, the love & guidance shared with my two passing’s have in addition to our hearts, further inspired our Baby Bubbles collection with Baby Shakes & Lullaby Lollies. The love continues…

If you are struggling in knowing what legacy your precious dear ones have left you, in the calm, you too shall feel what they have lovingly inspired in you, as I have here in creating these hearts & also in heading up Stevee B & the ske gulls community page, hosting our annual online Celebrate in UNITY tributes & running our FLIGHT (Fiancés lost in grief heal TOGETHER) support group  all on facebook!

DISCLAIMER: Although I take the same level of pride with each heart I make, they will have slight imperfections as they are handmade. Rest assured that your heart begins its creation at the time of request & no sooner, giving you & your dearly departed the special attention you both deserve! Also, I make all my hearts in a smoke free & pet free home at no cost to you, & they will not leave unless I am 100% satisfied in their presentation first!

      Hello Perfectly Imperfect! Thank you in your support of my mission! Sounds like you can relate to such sorrow. And you are so right, absolutely heartbreaking! Albeit we’re forced into, & changed by this new relationship, we are forever blessed by their love, which is the inspiration for my blog! It’s one expression of honoring these relationships that has further blessed me with many nice friendships!

      Thank you for stopping by & sharing your thoughts : )
