Breastmilk Jewelry: Turning Your Breastfeeding Journey into a Perfect Keepsake

Your breastfeeding journey has probably been one of the most intense experiences of your life, maybe even moreso than your baby's birth. It can be the most rewarding and the most challenging things we'll ever do. 3am cuddles, cracked nipples and damp patches! But eventually it comes to an end but you can still keep some of your "liquid gold" as a forever memory.

Breastmilk jewelry is a perfect keepsake and with us you can trust your milk will be preserved forever. We've been specialising in making and teaching breastmilk jewellery techinqes since 2015.

What is Breastmilk Jewelry?

We turn a tiny bit of milk into jewelry and even just a teaspoonful is enough, or a bag lurking in the depths of your freezer from a decade ago. We preserve it and blend it with high quality Japanese resin to harden inside your jewelry setting. It's durable and will never discolor or spoil if you follow the care instructions.

It might be a new idea to some I was on UK national TV in 2017 and presenter Philip Schofield looked at me like I had two heads, but Holly Willoughby said she'd have loved to order some if she still had some milk in the freezer. Breastmilk jewelry has been around since the 90's but generally isn't well-known. I founded Keepsaker Supplies and that's where I teach this lovely art, and I supply the vast majority of breastmilk jewelers around the world with their preservation powder! I literally wrote the course on breastmilk preservation.

So Much More Than Just Milk

Traditionally here at Tree of Opals we've specialised in Breastmilk Jewelry, but we know that you and your baby have had other milestones. We can incorporate various inclusions in your piece along with or instead of breastmilk, including:

• 
  

  Baby’s first curl: A lock of hair carefully arranged within the resin.

  
  


• 
  

  Umbilical cord: A small piece of the preserved cord stump.

  
  


• 
  

  Placenta: Dried and ground placenta powder.

  
  


• 
  

  Scan photos & Footprints: Encapsulating visual memories.

  
  

So whether you choose a simple ring, a solid gold bead or an elaborate pendant, every piece is handmade with love in our studio in Bath, Somerset.
