Description
Umbilical Cord Filled Bead for European style bracelets such as Chamilia and Pandora. Perfect for preserved placenta too! Our babies are only small for a moment. They gain their independence so quickly starting from when the umbilical cord is cut separating them from your shared placenta.
We will cast a tiny bit of your baby’s cord stump or dried placenta powder into resin and give you a choice of beads. You can see Nikki’s YouTube tutorials here and know that I never film without your permission. I’m considered an expert and offer advanced courses in making breastmilk jewellery, so you’re in safe hands. You might see my designs and stock images elsewhere because other breastmilk artists buy them from me over on Keepsaker Supplies (you’re welcome to buy from there if you’d rather DIY!)
Placenta and Umbilical Cord Filled Bead colour options
You can pick one of our nineteen colour sparkle mixes, or choose “classic cord” for a piece set in clear resin with a white background. Click on this colour options page to see more info about each variation, including how we place each of the colours and shimmers. Each piece will look unique because of the natural colours of the umbilical cord and placenta powder and we can’t predict the results. Colours vary from white to red, black, pink and brown and everything in between.
adding hair
You can add a first curl as an additional element to any of our umbilical cord and placenta keepsake pieces, just write what you’d like in the box above.
cord and placenta powder sending kits
We’ll send you a kit a week or so after you order and here’s some advice on sending it in, please read it. It’s really important you keep some ash back and don’t send too much. “Less is more” with keepsake jewellery.
*tw baby loss* If you are looking for a loss piece for a baby or child then please email Nikki on info@treeofopals.com with the subject line “Pro Bono”, who will try to reply straight away. We have a small fund available for these pieces and some instructions on our Non-Profit Baby Memorial page on how to save a first curl, placenta and umbilical cord if your baby is to be born sleeping and ash if they are cremated.
Umbilical Cord Filled Bead Bead
European Filled Bead Settings
All of our European beads have a hole size around 4.5mm and should fit most Pandora, Biagi or Chamilia bracelets etc. For an interesting history on the European charm beads have a look at this Wikipedia page. These beads come in solid silver and crystal solid silver.
Bead Engraving
Engravable is done in Arial font as standard, but please let us know if you’d prefer another font such as Times New Roman in the comments of the product before adding it to the basket. Click on each font to see it “in action” with your chosen words. You can write *heart emoji* which works better than copy and pasting or adding an emoji to the basket!

Engraving is available on all of these filled beads. We have blogs with memorial quotes here and baby and breastfeeding quotes here
Add your text, up to 30 characters recommended – upper and lower case, numbers and punctuation in your chosen font. You can choose Roman numerals, birth, marriage or death coordinates (we’re happy to help you work that out), or messages of love, hope, and remembrance. We are even happy to include more “colourful” language! Perfect for image and handwriting engraving here.
Nikki’s YouTube Tutorial
If you’d prefer to DIY this Umbilical Cord Filled Bead you can purchase supplies over on Keepsaker Supplies and follow a tutorial (channel beads coming soon). I have been teaching people how to make cremation ashes European style beads in person and online since 2016.
