Hand-Engraved Keepsakes, Decor, and Memory Boxes
Turning everyday objects into timeless keepsakes. I add names, dates, and special messages to your wooden boards, glass boxes, and decor pieces, one swirl at a time.

I engraved this vanity glass box for a birthday gift, and I love how the florals on the front and the flowers inside the box match. It brightens up the entire experience.
About Cherished Keepsakes: Boxes, Decor & More
Because I use a rotary tool to freehand every design, I can accommodate specific requests that mass-produced items cannot—whether that is a long quote on a wooden milestone board, a bi-lingual script, or a delicate logo on a vanity box. This is not a machine-cut sticker, so you get genuine depth and texture that will not fade. If you have a specific heirloom or a new piece of decor you want to elevate, send me a message so we can look at the material and discuss what will work best.
More than just a surface
When I engrave a piece, I am doing more than adding a name. I am carving a memory into the object. Unlike laser etching that simply burns the surface, my hand-engraving process involves a rotary tool that creates real depth you can actually feel with your fingertips. Whether it is a baby milestone board, a 'love notes' jar, or a vanity box for bridesmaids, the piece becomes something you want to hold onto for years.
What I love to engrave
- Glass and Vanity Boxes: These are classic gifts. I work on antique-style glass and brass boxes, adding names, dates, or small motifs like stars and florals to make the unboxing feel special.
- Wooden Milestone Boards: Perfect for nurseries. I use birchwood or other quality wood to etch out your baby's milestones, creating a sturdy piece that doubles as home decor.
- Love Note Jars & Decor: If you have a specific jar for wedding wishes or a birthday milestone, I can engrave the lid or the glass itself to make it a permanent record of your special day.
Why choose hand-engraving?
Hand-engraved keepsakes offer a level of detail that machines often miss. I can adjust the script size, add tiny illustrative flourishes, or work in different languages—if I can trace it, I can engrave it. Because I handle every piece personally, I can also guide you on what will look best. If the surface is too thin or the material isn't suited for engraving, I will be honest with you. My goal is to create something that feels truly yours, not just another item off a shelf. Let's start a conversation about what you are looking to personalize.
