Sister’s Keepsakes, a unique business in eastern Idaho, is gaining attention for their one-of-a-kind jewelry made from breast milk. Owned by Sharlee Hill and Sam Feltman, the online brand offers customers the opportunity to preserve their breastfeeding journey in a tangible and meaningful way.
Using a special process, Sister’s Keepsakes turns breast milk into a powder, which is then set in resin and crafted into beautiful rings, necklaces, or earrings. Unlike other companies offering similar products, Hill and Feltman ensure their jewelry is durable and can withstand everyday wear.
The idea for Sister’s Keepsakes came from Feltman’s personal experience of sending her breast milk to out-of-state companies and facing long wait times and even scams. This inspired her and Hill to create a local business that provides a safe and reliable option for mothers looking to cherish their breastfeeding experience.
The business has received a positive response from customers who appreciate the opportunity to support a local venture and create a lasting memento of their motherhood journey. Hill emphasizes that the jewelry serves as a reminder of the challenges and joys of nursing, making it a meaningful gift to oneself.
While Sister’s Keepsakes is currently a part-time endeavor for both owners, they are open to expanding the business as their children grow older. For now, they are focused on providing a unique and sentimental service to mothers in the community.
