Eddie

My Granddad, Eddie. He was truly the greatest man you could meet. His passion was baking, having owned his own bakery for over 30 years. He always knew what to say to cheer me up, and the world is a darker place without him. I love you, Grumps! X

Jack

This necklace was made in memory of my beautiful little brother, Jack. Jack was the light in every room. He made me laugh without even trying. He was made for the stage. Everyone needed a Jack in their life. The most caring soul, and even at the age of 17, taught me to look for the good in everyone. We shared a bond that I miss dearly every day, and this necklace makes me feel like I carry a piece of him everywhere I go. I don’t just live for me anymore, I live for us both.

A black labrador is stood in the Lake District fells. The tongues pink tongue is sticking out. The ground is rocky and grassy under the dogs feet.

Ozzy

My memorial ring was made for myself, containing the ashes of my dog Ozzy. People say you always have that one special dog, you love all of your pets, but there's that one extra special one, and Ozzy was just that. He grew up with our Daughter, so his loss was extra difficult. He came on every adventure with us, our favourite place being Cumbria. Cumbria will always hold an extra special place in our hearts because of Ozzy. I've got a few pieces from Hand On Heart (Ozzy's paw print on a necklace being one of them). So there was never any doubt that I would be having Ozzys ashes in a ring from Hand On Heart when the time came. I chose to have them set in Black to match Ozzy's shiny black coat, and my ring definitely shines just like Ozzy did. Going back to Cumbria since losing Ozzy has been made that little bit easier knowing he's still there with us, within my ring.

Sasha Jayne

I got my ashes adjustable ring after I lost my beautiful German Shepherd Sasha Jayne. She will always be the love of my life and my soul mate. We had 12 years of cuddles, fun, and adventures. I miss her so much. Having my ring means she is with me wherever I go.

My step Nan - Norma. Norma walked into my life when I was 18 months old, and from then she taught me so much, and we made memories I will never forget. Such a beautiful, loving woman - who I will miss dearly - Norma had such an impact on the woman I am today xxx

Maggie May

In memory of my childhood dog and best friend, Maggie May. Such a special and beautiful girl, who I miss every day. Glad to keep a piece of her close every day. An incredibly special dog that dealt with me dressing her up in tutus and painting her nails for halloween!🤍🐶🪽

Mark

Mark, the love of my life, was cruelly snatched away from us at the end of January by the silent killer, sepsis. His loss has had a devastating impact on our lives, leaving behind 2 sons, 3 grandchildren, and 4 young foster children. We are trying to navigate our lives without him, and it is the most painful thing we have done. I wanted to carry Mark around with me as well as in my heart. I received my beautiful fingerprint necklace yesterday, and I am completely overwhelmed by it- it’s exceeded my expectations. I absolutely love it. Thank you Hand on Heart, this piece will enable me to continue my journey with a little bit of comfort and peace. Xx
