I’m seriously considering adding international shipping as mothers worldwide are starting to notice concerns with the powder preservation method. I get at least one of these style emails a month. MOMS want PURE breastmilk jewelry. NOT tinted filler.
Setting oneself apart is essential, especially in a craft that thrives on innovation. It only takes one individual to introduce a fresh perspective, creating a ripple effect. If a creator becomes defensive when asked about their methods, it may be a sign that they’re not fully confident in the approach they’ve chosen. Transparent, quality craftsmanship speaks for itself and doesn’t shy away from questions.
While creators are not obligated to disclose their entire process, they should be open to demonstrating their method’s integrity. A simple water-based demonstration can effectively illustrate purity and offer clients peace of mind about the final product. Transparent creators prioritize trust and customer satisfaction, which helps build lasting confidence in their work.

At our studio, I’m proud to offer breastmilk jewelry that preserves the purity of your milk without powders or artificial tints. Instead, I use a unique preservation method, developed to capture the natural colors and qualities of your breastmilk. Unlike the widely used “powder method”—in which breastmilk is mostly evaporated away, leaving only traces behind—my pieces incorporate your milk in its truest form.

Many methods involve heating the milk with a pre-tinted powder until it evaporates, then drying and crushing this mixture for final use. If you're considering a piece from another creator, I recommend asking how your milk is preserved. If they use a powder method, request a demonstration with water; a reluctance to share basic information can be a red flag. While creators don’t need to share their exact process, transparency in preservation style is essential when it comes to investing in something so meaningful.

My process is designed to keep the milk’s natural hue, and as you can see from the photos, this may differ from the stark white that powdered methods create. If you’d like to know more, feel free to check out additional information and videos in previous blog posts.
