My journey into memorial resin art began after losing my brother. In the middle of grief, I learned how comforting it can be to hold something tangible—something that keeps a loved one close. I created Keep Me Close Studios in Dublin to offer that same comfort to others through handcrafted memorial resin keepsakes and ashes jewellery.
I specialise in transforming cremation ashes, locks of hair, professionally dried funeral flowers, wedding bouquets, pet fur, or sentimental materials into meaningful resin pieces. Every item—from memorial pendants to resin pyramids and pocket keepsakes—is created with dignity, respect, and intention.
At Keep Me Close Studios, my commitment to dignity is built into the very structure of my pricing. I do not use generic markups because every piece I create is as unique as the story it honours. My pricing model is completely transparent and meticulously calculated using a dedicated, precise system in Airtable.
Each price is rooted in:
Meticulous Material Costs: I calculate the precise cost of premium Sterling Silver, high-grade resin, and specialized additives like pigments or top coats.
Specialized Artisan Labour: Every phase is accounted for—from preparing and mixing the resin to the careful hand-finishing of your jewellery.
Respectful, Curated Packaging: Your keepsake arrives with the honour it deserves, featuring curated tissue, ribbon, and quality gift boxes.
Ordering Your Keepsake
Based in County Dublin, I work with families across Ireland and internationally. Most of my jewellery items are created as pendants, with sterling silver or leather chains available at checkout.
To ensure your memories are handled with care:
Select Your Piece: Order links are available via Stripe on my website.
Collection Kit: Once ordered, I will post a collection kit to you alongside a form to confirm if you are sending ashes or hair, and to select your custom colours.
Bundle Offers: We always offer bundle discounts for orders of 1, 2, 5, or 10 items to help families stay connected.
By using this honest, calculated formula, I stand over my work as a premium, ethical Dublin artisan dedicated to bringing you comfort for years to come.
