Horse/dog hair jewellery

[ecrozier]

Hi all
Has anyone got any recommendations of good people who make horse/dog hair jewellery? Very sadly my dog probably won't see the end of this year (he has osteosarcoma and whilst currently doing very well, I'm not foolish enough to assume that means he will be around long term) and my retired mare is also getting rather long in the tooth, again she is well at the moment and happy but it seemed a good time to think about having something to one day remember them both by. They both already have lovely portrait oil paintings in our house but I wondered if anyone has had any of the jewellery items made from dog/horse hair and if so, by which company and any good/bad experiences or pictures of the finished article would be much appreciated! If it helps, she is chestnut, he is a black and tan Rott, his hair is approx 1 inch long and he has PLENTY of it! I'm open to any ideas - rings, necklaces, bracelets etc.
Thanks

Ah so sorry to hear that things are looking but what a great keepsake. I have just sent my girls mane and tail off to be put into a resin necklace by swishtail jewellery. My friend had a bracelet made by them which was brilliant and the owner has recently started stocking a beautiful resin heart necklace that I fell in love with. Its only eleven quid which I thought was a great price. She has a facebook page and website

we've just had a bracelet done for my OH's daughter by from the tail jewellery. It was fab and her eyes lit up when she realized what it was! They also do cast pendants as well for smaller pets hair. they have a website http://www.fromthetailjewellery.co.uk/ if you want to see if thereis anything suitable. I can recommend them
