The HoH Memorial Wall

My memorial ring was made for my beautiful girl, Willow (I believe Chloe made my ring). She was our 5-year-old German Shepherd who sadly passed away earlier this year from a really aggressive, incurable cancer. She was our absolute world, and we tried everything to give her the longest and best quality of life — we even sent samples to America to try experimental treatment options, but heartbreakingly she passed away just two days after they began analysing them.

I’ve found so much comfort in wearing my ring every day, knowing that she is always with me. We have recently welcomed a new puppy, who is bringing us so much joy. Her little German Shepherd mannerisms remind us of Willow and are helping us to smile again.

Thank you for the work you do. I can imagine it must often be very emotional, but please know you are bringing so much comfort to people. Your jewellery is a truly beautiful way to hold on to precious memories. x

My necklace was made in memory of my beautiful mum, who passed away in 2023. She was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2021 and lived with this cruel illness for two years. It slowly took away her freedom to walk, her ability to do the simplest of daily tasks, and eventually, even her voice. Through it all, Mum was so brave and always kept a positive outlook, despite everything she faced.

Mum was the heart of our family, and it’s still so hard to adjust to life without her. I chose the red resin oval necklace, as red was her favourite colour and she was always known for wearing her red lippy (the photo I treasure most is of her at my wedding, topping up her lipstick 😂). I also had her handwriting engraved on the back, which makes it even more special.

I wear this necklace every single day. It brings me comfort to know she is always with me. Thank you so much for creating such beautiful memorial jewellery. xx

This was made for my cat Misty whom I had for over 18 years

My wonderful parents. My dad died just before the first lockdown when I was 28. I was a daddy’s girl from day one – he was the most supportive and caring person, always making us laugh. He even kept my mum smiling at every one of her chemo appointments and was always there for my children. A little while later, my mum passed away and joined my dad in heaven. They were soulmates and destined to always be together. She was my biggest cheerleader, my best friend, and now my guardian angel.

My parents were always there to hold my hand and guide me through life. I now have both of their handprints on my necklace, close to my heart. Even though they are in heaven, I can still hold their hands, and my children can feel their handprints too.

My dad, Michael. He was a huge part of my life – we were a team. We did everything together: we laughed, cried and sat in silence. I feel like a part of me left with him when he passed in January. Not a day goes by when I don’t think about him. Having a piece of jewellery from yourselves with his ashes in has given me so much comfort. It feels like he’s with me all the time, although it still hurts knowing he’s not physically here with me to see me grow more as a person and to watch me have my own family.

Our dog Dusty – he was so much more than just a dog. He was a part of our family, and we miss him so much.

My necklace was made in memory of my nanny. She had a huge impact on my life from day one – she was always there for me when I felt I had no one else to turn to. She was an amazing listener and always knew what to say; she never judged anyone, ever. She never once complained about anything. She was a very positive person right up until the end. She was such a big part of my life, and not a day goes by where I don’t look up to the sky and talk to her.

She used to love hearing about what I’d been doing with my partner – from camping to going on holiday, where I video-called her every day. She was so strong, she even waited until I came home from my holiday to tell me what the doctors had said, despite being told almost three weeks prior. She didn’t want to ruin my holiday. She was the most inspiring, strongest lady, and I had the honour of calling her my nanny xxxxxx

My earrings and necklace were made in memory of my beloved mum. She was the bravest, kindest and most loving mum, who I love and miss endlessly. My dear mum was my best friend and never complained about anything, despite fighting breast cancer twice and sadly being diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia. She was so very positive, strong and selfless. She was always there for me in everything since I was born. I feel honoured that she was chosen to be my mum xxxx

Twelve years ago, our Labrador Molly gave birth to nine puppies, and we were fortunate to keep two – a boy and a girl. It’s always difficult to lose a pet, but as we were at the birth of Poppie and Charlie it hit us very hard, especially our daughter. I wanted to give her a special gift for her birthday and chose a heart necklace with ashes from Poppie and hair from Charlie. She wears it every day.

My daughter and I had jewellery made in memory of my partner and my daughter’s stepdad, Dennis. He made such a huge impact on our lives with his knowledge and never-ending sense of humour – always finding the funny side of everything and seeing the good in everyone. He taught us both so much. We love our Hand on Heart jewellery, and this has helped us to feel like a part of him will always be with us.

My nanny – she raised me, she was my whole world. We were always together, and she got me through my dark days in ways she will never know. She was always in my corner, having my back. I’m so lost without her.
