I grew up surrounded by animals - dogs, cats, chickens, and ducks. They made my life richer, happier, and more meaningful. But their lives are short compared to ours. In a busy world, moving far from home and family, I’ve carried the ache of promises I couldn’t keep and the longing for those I’ve loved and lost.

Creating these ornaments is my way of keeping them close. Each piece is a tribute to the pets who shaped our lives, a way to hold their spirit near, especially during the festive season when gathering matters most. Though their time with us is limited, their memory can live forever in another form and in our hearts.
