Keepsakes
Cord keepsakes are an opt out thing- i.e I tend to make them for everyone as a little complimentary gift (unless the cord has been cut too short) so let me know if you would prefer NOT to receive one.
With prints, I only tend to make one if you specifically request one.
Cord keepsake (no charge)
A cord keepsake can be a lovely momento of the time when you were physically connected as one to baby. The cord is shaped into a heart, a word or an initial and then dried out, presented in an organza bag (for free) or framed for a fee. If you have a preference for a certain shape (heart, star, initial, love, name) etc please do let me know. Obviously I'm a little restrained by the length and shape of the cord but will do my best to accommodate requests.
The examples immediately below are all free with encapsulation. There is no extra charge.

Framed Cord Keepsake £35
If you would like your cord keepsake framed with your child's name underneath, you can add this on to encapsulation.
Shaped and sprayed Cord Keepsake £25
Your cord keepsake can be shaped into a heart or a moon and sprayed gold. When the keepsakes are shaped in this way, they tend to be more flat and symmetrical.
Framed, shaped and sprayed Cord Keepsake £45
Your cord keepsake can be shaped into a heart or a moon and sprayed gold and then framed in an attractive box frame with your baby's name in wooden scrabble letters.
Natural placenta print £10 (Framed £30)
A lovely way to honour the amazing organ that kept your little one alive in the womb - placenta prints can be filed away in a memory box or framed and displayed. Imprinted from the placenta onto watercolour paper using no food colouring or paint- just natural.
Coloured placenta print £15 (Framed £35)
You may also opt to have a coloured print made. This client requested the colours brown and green to show the placenta as the tree of life. You can choose whichever colours you like- colours to match a nursery for example. Food colouring is painted onto the placenta and then watercolour paper is laid on top to create an impression of your placenta.

Watercolour Shimmer placenta print £50 (Framed £70)
I will draw your placenta and then use shimmery watercolour paint. These beautiful paintings reflect the light creating a truly unique keepsake. This is a representation of your placenta rather than a true print since watercolour paint is not food safe and can therefore not be applied onto the placenta if remedies are being made.
