🌸 Choosing Your Medium: A Guide to Colour and Texture in Memorial Jewellery

Each piece I create is a quiet tribute — a way to hold memory close. Whether you’re honouring a loved one, preserving wedding petals, or marking a tender moment, the medium you choose can shape the emotional tone of your keepsake. Below is a gentle guide to help you explore the options:

---

✨ Mica Powder

Soft shimmer with subtle depth
Mica powder adds a gentle, pearlescent glow to your piece. It’s ideal for those who want a quiet radiance — something that catches the light without overwhelming the memory it holds. Available in soft pinks, blues, silvers, and more, mica can evoke warmth, calm, or celebration.

---

🌟 Foil Flakes

Reflective and expressive
Foil flakes bring texture and sparkle, often used to highlight preserved flowers or ashes. Gold, silver, rose gold, and copper tones can add richness and contrast — perfect for those who want a piece that feels celebratory, regal, or deeply personal.

💎 Crushed Opals

Vibrant, ethereal colour
Crushed opals offer a luminous, shifting colour palette — from fiery reds to ocean blues. They’re ideal for pieces that honour bold personalities or vivid memories. Each fragment catches the light differently, creating a sense of movement and life.

🧊 Crushed Glass Flakes

Clear, crisp brilliance
Crushed glass flakes bring clarity and sparkle, often used to evoke purity, reflection, or quiet strength. They pair beautifully with ashes or petals, allowing the organic elements to shine through while adding a gentle glimmer.

---

✨ Glitter

Playful sparkle with emotional depth
Glitter adds a touch of magic — a playful shimmer that can feel joyful, whimsical, or quietly radiant. Available in fine or chunky textures, glitter can be layered to reflect celebration, remembrance, or the unique personality of the person or moment being honoured. It’s especially beautiful when paired with petals or soft resin tones.

💠 Diamond Dust

Subtle brilliance with timeless grace
Diamond dust brings a delicate sparkle to your piece — a whisper of light that catches the eye without overpowering the memory it holds. It’s often chosen to honour enduring love, quiet strength, or a sense of sacredness. When paired with mica, glitter, or crushed opals, it adds a layer of refinement and depth.
