Memorial And Keepsake Experiences

Make Retreats are for those seeking a deeper, even more immersive experience.  These are for those looking to experience the catharsis that comes from creation.

GEM Retreats are a Guided Experience Making Memorial Jewelry.  Two days in person in my studio in Vermont.  Bespoke jewelry, in person.

HOLD Retreats are designed to Honor Our Loved and Departed.  A one day session in person in my studio in Vermont.  Together we will create a reliquary, and fill it with the precious and objects that are the sacred relics of your loved one.

GEM

The Guided Experience Making (GEM) was born from a desire to help others find catharsis through creating something with their hands and heart.   

This isn’t a “jewelry making class.” It’s an intimate, collaborative experience.

We will work together in my Vermont studio, where you’ll be able to  make real-time design decisions as we create a custom piece that tells your unique story and honors your memories. You’ll shape the piece as much or as little as you feel called to, with my guidance every step of the way.

GEM provides a space to honor emotions—loss, grief, or transition—and transform them into something tangible and lasting. The jewelry we create becomes a vessel for memory, love, and connection.

HOLD

Honor Our Loved and Departed (Hold) is a way for you to hold time and space for a loved one who has passed on. Together in my studio, we will create a reliquary to respect the memory of your loved one.

This process starts with a conversation to determine what best represents your pet or person. It could be their image, a fingerprint, a letter they wrote, a texture of forget me nots.

When you come in person to the studio, all the elements of your reliquary will be ready to create. I will help you build the piece and then we will ceremoniously add the contents to the vessel and seal it.
