A sweet puffy sand heart necklace pendant … personalized meaningful memories jewelry.
There are places I'll remember, all my life, though some have changed …  wear a personalized keepsake close to your heart as a tangible reminder of that special place and time.

Send me a sprinkling of sand from your favorite beach, river or special place and I will sand cast the heart shape with your sand in sterling silver creating a unique, one of a kind heart memento pendant just for you … a special souvenir as a reminder of a special time and/or place ... for you or as a thoughtful personalized gift for someone special.  Lots of special memories? special places?  stack 'em up! or create a charm bracelet

- approximate measurement - between 1/2“ - 5/8” (15mm)
- the puffy heart is just over 1/8” thick in the center
- the suspension loop inside diameter measures 3/16” (5mm) but part of the heart occupies some of that space so plan your chain accordingly
- metal - oxidized sterling silver (.925 silver)
- shown on a chain sold separately here
- photographed with a US dime and inch ruler for scale

SENDING YOUR OWN SAND FOR A PERSONALIZED SAND HEART?
- please contact me and I’ll tell you how and where to send about a teaspoon of your own sand for individual sand casting. 
(send more if you'd like to add to my sand collection)
- note, I may need to sift extra grainy sand to remove larger grains for successful casting.

- once you’ve placed the order and the sand is received I’ll begin the sand casting process …please allow 1 - 3 weeks for your custom order to be shipped (longer during the busy holiday season)

I've sculpted the little puffy heart from a chunk of carving wax and will make a sand mold of the carved wax heart with a sprinkling of your sand, then I'll torch melt the sterling silver and pour it into the sand mold.
Then I'll clean up the heart casting and finish it up in my little studio ... the process takes some time but it's completely hand crafted jewelry because I believe how it's made matters.

sand/noun - a loose granular substance resulting from the erosion of siliceous and other rocks and forming a major constituent of beaches, riverbeds, the seabed, and deserts.
