I have worked very hard to perfect my own unique technique so that I require a minimal amount of breast milk to complete your piece. I only need 2 tablespoons of your breast milk in order to create your custom piece!  That amount of breastmilk leaves me with enough preserved breastmilk to create about 5-6 stones, depending on size.  Please, please, please for the love of everything that is good do not mail me your entire stash.  Accidents can happen (while it rarely happens, mail can get lost, damaged, etc.) and I would be heartbroken for you if your entire stash were gone. I ask that you only send the required amount if your stash is limited so that in the event you need to resend your milk, you still have some to send.If you have less than 2 tablespoons saved please contact me before shipping your breastmilk as I can work with less if needed, jewelry options may just be limited (i.e. no pieces with large stones)
