Thanks for visiting my animal
memorial website.
I understand and empathize with your feeling of loss, as I have recently lost Britney, the black dog on the left
side of my title image.
It HURTS! She died quickly from cancer and I had to put her to sleep New
Year day 2005.
I still think of her every day when I do certain things and go
certain places that we shared together. Pets are so unbelievable in their unconditional love.
I retired early from a 30 year career as a RN.
I began my own business of making pressed flower jewelry [Buttermilk
Lane Jewelry] and had several requests for pet memorial
jewelry.
I had great responses and got such satisfaction in making
others feel more comforted with their loss.
I decided to open
a new on-line store dedicated to this solely.
I do everything totally by myself.
I grow and press my own flowers, do the design work, and
create the jewelry.
Forget-Me-Nots are a perfect coupling with your images, or
just to surround your pets name in a sealed pendant. I will
work closely with you to design something that is totally
unique
and special.

Maggie, my beloved sidekick for 10 years, and going strong!
I am seriously thinking of pre-planning her burial
arrangements.
Only because I could not deal with the loss of Britney, and
I had the vet "put her down" , cremate her, AND keep the
ashes. I just could NOT deal with it at the time. It was too
quick and I was too devastated! I regret that so much now. I
was thinking that us "humans" make pre-arrangements, so why
can't we do it for our pets??!!! I am having a custom marker
made with her image and know just where I will put
it......by a log she runs on many times every day to start
her "chippy search" She loves to chase chipmunks and is
obsessed with them. Let's see, it has been 8 years +
since she caught one!! :-) [Shhhhhh]
So, that's the marker, and I will have her cremated, but
TAKE the ashes home and spread them along the "Chippy
Trail". I will keep a small portion to spread in my garden
to "give love" to my flowers. Another tiny amount will be in
a reversible memorial pendant with her image on the reverse
side.
I truthfully feel better planning this [tears in my eyes]
But I know that I can now go give her a BIG HUG and enjoy
her for the rest of her life!!!
