The Reason

It seems the main reason anyone does anything new is to make a difference. That's exactly my reason for starting this business. Until the other night, I wasn't too sure I had really made a difference. I've made loss pieces, love pieces and everything in between. I've made custom, pre-made and things that will never be seen because I wasn't happy with them fully.

I was asked to create a memorial necklace not too long ago. It was/is a very special necklace. It is one to carry around with love, admiration and strength for Cody James.

Cody James was one of too many children who experienced childhood Leukemia. His story is one that will touch anyone's heart.



I had been experimenting with awareness ribbons of different colors. My most recent was the miscarriage/pregnancy loss ribbon I had shown a few posts earlier. So, after a few discussions and some ideas popping in my head, I came up with this necklace design:


After being thrilled to learn that the necklace was well liked, it went up in the shop for a few others who were interested. A little later, I thought that it'd be great to be able to make a donation with each purchase. So, with every purchase of Cody's necklace $2 will be donated to further childhood cancer research in Cody's name.

Here's what you'll see when you open your box!

I'm so happy to see this post. My friend Eleisha is Cody's mom. I sent your link to her, thinking that she might like a piece of loss/memorial jewelry.(after she saw my awesome nest necklace) I never imagined you two would put all this together! It's pretty amazing!

Thank you so much for sharing my shop with her! Hopefully this will continue on and help raise some money for research and spread Cody's story!
