YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Artisan jeweller Miranda Watson uses breastmilk, placenta and hair to make beads, necklaces and rings.

The Portland-based mother of four only began her business six months ago, but already plenty of women have contacted her to create keepsakes from their breastmilk and placenta.

She’s also crafted jewellery for mothers whose children have died, using their ashes.

Mrs Watson said mothers get the pieces made to remember their motherhood journey – placenta to symbolise their pregnancy and breastmilk to recall the time they spent nursing their baby.

Produced by Emma Nobel.
