It was a pleasure to welcome back Milo's parents into the studio to create a second piece for this dog tag necklace. It features the voice of their third child. (Don't worry the second one wasn't forgotten! I was blessed enough to have made a piece for Milo's mother as well.)

I wrote about having little Milo in the studio for one of my first blog posts back in 2012.

I love making this type of Soundwave Jewellery because I feel it is truly something to be cherished as a family heirloom and something can be passed on in future years.

Every parent waits patiently for their baby's first words. In general baby's start talking between the ages of 12-18 month.  It is not uncommon for  baby's first words to be momma or dada.  Science has linked this occurrence to sound patterns.

What were your baby's firsts words? Or maybe they haven't spoken them yet? If so get your smart phone ready so you can capture a piece of their history!

Custom Soundwave Dog Tags and Custom Soundwave Necklaces are perfect ways to commemorate the occasion.

Continuing the process of creating this cuff bracelet. Once the piece is cut from the silver sheet it is then filed on all side to even out the saw marks. The two short sides are filed at 90 degree angles parallel to each other. The piece is then heated to make sure the metal is soft enough to bend. This process is called annealing. It is then bent into a "D" like shape. The two short ends that were filed perfectly straight need to meet each other. If they do not meet exactly your solder seem will be weak. This might cause the piece to split open during the rounding phase. When making jewellery it is important that each stage is done correctly and with precision and care. If not then the job will become more difficult in the later stages. As in life it is important to set a good foundation to build off of. Only then can we expect to achieve the real essence of truth, beauty and excellence.
