Memorial Jewellery to keep them close

Memorial jewellery made with care – with each inclusion stone created by Kathy using your precious memories.

Welcome, I'm Kathy, the hands and heart behind Harris Wood Creative Studio. From my small workshop in Bayles (South Gippsland region, Victoria), I create jewellery and keepsakes using ashes, hair and fur to honour loved ones who have died, as well as meaningful pieces that mark other tender parts of life, such as breastfeeding journeys.

Most designs you see here can be created as a memorial piece using ashes, hair, fur or breastmilk if you wish, or as a symbolic piece without inclusions. You're always welcome to choose what feels right for you and your loved one.

If you’re not sure where to begin, that’s completely okay – you can simply start browsing, follow the gentle guide below, or reach out to Kathy whenever you’re ready.

HOW THE PROCESS WORKS

You don’t have to have everything decided before you reach out, and I know it can feel overwhelming. This gentle, step‑by‑step guide explains how to choose a design, how the inclusion kits work and how your piece is created – whether you’re honouring a loved one, celebrating a special moment or quietly marking your own story – so you can move at a pace that feels safe for you. You’re always welcome to follow the guide, or simply reach out to Kathy with any questions.

Memorial or Symbolic

You choose what feels right

All of the jewellery designs in my store can be created as memorial or commemorative pieces, using a tiny amount of ashes, hair, breastmilk or other inclusions, or as symbolic pieces without inclusions.

Some people feel comforted knowing their loved one’s ashes or hair are held safely inside their ring or pendant.

Others prefer a design that simply reminds them of a special person, baby or pet.

There is no right or wrong way to do this — I’m here to help you find what feels most gentle and supportive for you.
