THE GOODS: Photo Tile Jewelry by Elemental Memories














FUN NEW GOODS: I'm head over heels....for silver....for black & white photos....and for meaningful jewelry. So naturally, Elemental Memories caught my eye. Using your favorite photos, they handcraft a custom photo necklace or bracelet, adorned with the finest sterling silver & semi-precious stone beads. Skip the typical mommy necklaces & bracelets with the letter beads and listen to the old adage: a picture is worth a thousand words (although you can inscribe your tile with a few words). Either way, this is a beautiful, one-of-a-kind keepsake.


WHY IT'S GOOD: Unlike other photo jewelry where the photo is sealed with resin or sandwiched between glass, Elemental Memories creates each photo tile by hand using a low fire clay whereby the photo image is actually baked into the clay. This technique creates a unique feel and look to the tile as well as making it waterproof. Which for a Mommy, is a good thing!
