Customization Guide
Each piece of jewelry is hand carved in the traditional way. This is a matter of artistic craftsmanship. Each piece of wood/resin is previously selected, sawed and sanded using 8 different papers before being oiled, polished and assembled.
You will notice that each piece of jewelry that I offer you can be personalized by its color, its material, its insertions, its format and an emotional card that comes with it.
I've put here everything you need to help you make your choices.

My manufacturing time:
Each piece of jewelry is sculpted by hand, on demand. A delay of 7 to 14 days may be necessary during busy times of the year.
I allow myself to prioritize certain orders such as, for example, a bereavement or a birthday. To do this, you must write to me and inform me.
Wood species
I work with more than 50 different species of Canadian, exotic and stabilized wood. Stabilized wood is made from blocks of maple that are soaked in resin and dye. The color is therefore edge to edge of the heart and not on the surface. Once sculpted, each piece is oiled and polished to bring out all the richness of the veining.
Wood maintenance
To maintain its beauty, it is best to store the jewelry in a dry, light-proof place and it is not recommended to get it wet. If the wood appears dry, a coat of oil could be applied and wiped off. (coconut oil, jojoba, butcher block, etc.)
Resins
I receive the resin in blocks, ready to sculpt. Using 10 sandpapers + 2 polishes, I managed to achieve a very nice shine.
The choices of hearts
The design of the collages
I make wood and resin collages. I can also join the 2. The possibilities are endless!
In regular order I offer
Up to 3 materials on the same core. Here are the proposed designs.
For more options, write to me.
Crystals
For me, the crystals inserted into the hearts represent
the number of children we have. the heart zircon represents mourning.
Afterwards… you can add crystals to highlight a particular event.
They are a comparison to Swarovski, measure either 2 or 4 mm and are round.
The heart zircons measure 4 mm. These are synthetic stones.
Necklace size:
- The length of the chains is calculated in inches as an even number.
- It is suggested to take a rope to check the desired length and measure with a ruler or simply with a fabric measuring tape.
- 1 in = 2.54 cm
- “Standard” is 18”
