10/09Oh, Ruth, I received the pendants and earrings today and they are all
just absolutely lovely! What a wonderful, wonderful artist you are. I
cannot thank you enough for these precious, beautiful pieces. I will wear
mine with love and cherish it always and I know that Jeff’s mom Gail, his
daughter Alecia, and his dearest mom-like friend Rose-Ellen will feel the
same about theirs. You have helped to ease the pain of Jeff’s loss by
replacing a part of it with beauty and love. Thank you so very much for
the care and skill, the time and patience you put into these tiny works of
art. And for your heart, too, Ruth, because your heart comes through.

Dear Ruth
just wanted to thank you for the pendants - speedy service and I was so
impressed when they arrived - they were even lovelier than I pictured.
My mum died on 22nd July 2008 and both my sister and aunt have taken it
really badly. Her favorite flowers were forget-me-nots and I am hoping
that these beautiful pendants will serve as a comfort to both of them.
Thank you once again
Kind regards

Just a note of thanks for the beautiful pendant....in life his mom would
have treasured it but it will now it will always be with her. I will be
reaching out to you when I return and have you make one for me.

Hi Ruth,
My name is Ellen Sherry. My husband sent you a tiny flower over the
holidays to put in a necklace for me. It arrived today and I just had to
contact you! I was overwhelmed to see this beautiful pendant with the tiny
flower that meant so much to my 4 year old son, Kieran! It brought tears
to my eyes. Thank you for preserving this moment in time for us! You do
exquisite work .
Thank you, Ellen 01/08/09

Hi, my name is Becky and I just received a forget-me-not pendant in the
mail from you along with earrings to match. I can't put into words how
meaningful this all is to me. I actually wanted to find a piece of jewelry
for myself in memory of the baby I just lost (Clara), but I couldn't find
that one precious piece. Somehow I didn't come across your website
otherwise I would have ordered the pendant myself--it is EXACTLY what I'd
have wanted. It's simple, it's natural, and what I love the most is that
it's discreet. And your work is gorgeous. Thank you for creating these
precious little keepsakes.

Hello Ruth,
I wanted to let you know I received the necklace you made for me from my
sons memorial flowers.
It is more beautiful than I expected. I couldn't be more satisfied with
the results. Thank you so much!
I will be keeping your website in my "favorites" category and will
recommend it to anyone who would like a remembrance of their loved one.
Once again thank you for making something special to remind me of someone
that was special.
Thank you,

Dear Ruth,
Thank you so much for the beautiful pins. You did a beautiful job. Thank
you for personalizing the boxes and the cards. I sent them to my sister in
laws and had my two nieces pick theirs out. It is such a special thing
since my mom's name was Heather. You came highly recommended and I can see
why. I will recommend you to my friends also. Thanks again. We all love
the pins. Renae 05/12/09

Dear Ms. Wales,
I just received my first order from you today. I was so excited. I ordered
the single forget me not pendant and it's perfect. I have a friend that
just suffered a miscarriage and it just is perfect. As a woman who had
experienced 10 years of trying to have kids, myself, and just gave birth
to a daughter, I know how it feels to long for kids. I had not suffered
miscarriage, but before we adopted our son 5 years ago, I had an adoption
fail and it was heartbreaking, had I searched for something like this
years ago, I would have purchased it. As I mentioned, I just gave birth to
our daughter naturally, and it's just been a very long road to parenthood,
but worth the wait for both of our treasures.
My friend just experienced a very early loss and I was thinking about
Forget me nots and how God didn't forget her and I searched for that
flower and found your site. Oh, it is beautiful.
I can not wait to give this to her in church tomorrow. THANK YOU.

The paperweight arrived today and is just as lovely as I remembered it
being. I can't wait to give it to our friends in England. An exquisite
object for people who enjoy flowers and gardening.

Dear Ruth,
You have turned a dream into reality! I wanted something very special to
give to my dearest friend on her birthday this year; and you created it
for me with all the attention to detail and artistry I could imagine. The
Mexican Sunflower encased in the crystal paperweight glows as beautifully
as it did in my garden.
It is my friend's favorite flower and now she will be able to enjoy it's
beauty and color even in the grayest of winter days. Your suggestion of
applying an inscription and photo of my friend and me to the base added
immensely to the personal nature of the gift.Thank you very, very much. I
am so happy to have found you!

Thank you! You just created a beautiful necklace for my friend whose
daughter passed away. I work for a hospice organization and showed
everyone the incredible work you did....they were all blown away and want
to have your contact information! I just wanted you to know how thankful I
am for the compassionate care I know it must have taken to create my sweet
friend's necklace from her daughter's funeral flowers.
God Bless You!

I cannot thank you enough for making them just as I'd hoped they would be.
We'll have to see what you think up for next year.

Ruth,
I wanted to write and thank you again for all the work you did. When I
received my order, I opened it immediately and was blown away by how
beautiful the paperweights and jewelry were. It was a large order (13
paperweights plus 4 necklaces and a pair of earrings) and when I opened
the paperweights, one was more beautiful then the next. They are exactly
what I hoped they would be. I was going to give them as Christmas gifts to
my family in memory of my much loved grandmother. I don't know if I can
wait for Christmas! They are just gorgeous...so detailed and delicate.
You have an amazing talent and anyone can see in your work how much you
love what you do. Thank you for working with me...you were so patient
about answering all my questions and helping me through the process. I
also really appreciate you showing me some examples to help me decide
exactly what I wanted. I'll be ordering again!

Wonderful, awesome, fabulous, better than I could have imagined!! I can't
say enough great things about the necklaces I ordered. I wanted something
nice to give my mom, sister, kids, and a special aunt for a memory
keepsake of my dad, what I got was something even better. They all turned
out so beautiful. I'm sure they will be thrilled w/their necklaces.
Thank you so much for doing such a great job in preserving our keepsake
necklaces.

Hi Ruth, I just received the pendant. It is just perfect in every way. I
love the way you designed the front and the back is so unique! What a
beautiful keepsake. You are a wonderful artist and your skill is very much
appreciated.
It was wonderful doing business with you and I will certainly recommend
your services enthusiastically.
Gratefully, Theresa

The pins arrived on Thursday and they are exquisite! I love them and I
know my sisters will love them also.
Thank you so much for getting them to me so quickly and so attractively
packaged. As I mentioned before, my husband and I had our own handmade
jewelry business in California and one concept we kept in mind was that
people buy the sizzle as much as they buy the steak. You obviously pay
great attention to both!
Thanks again, Fran

Dear Ruth,
I just received my order for the Spring Floral Earrings today. They are so
beautiful and unique! Exactly what I was looking for. I purchased them for
a friend, but now I have to have a pair of my own, so I went back to your
website today and ordered a pair of the Forget me Not Stem Earrings. I
can't wait to get them in the mail. Thank you for your beautiful work!
Thank you,
Brittany

They are beautiful, they brought tears to my eyes... I wanted to give them
as Mother's Day gifts, but I don't even know if I will be able to wait
that long.
THANKS and I can't wait to get them.
I will surely recommend you to others (I can't believe how fast you were
able to get them done -- I really thought I would not hear back for
months.)
THANKS AGAIN! Vicki
