About

Hi! I’m Sarah,

A former veterinary technician, lifelong animal lover, mom of two wild-hearted boys, and dog mom to one extra fluffy Pom mix.

After years of supporting families through some of their hardest goodbyes, I wanted to offer something more lasting — a way to hold on to the moments, the memories, and the love.

 That’s how Valenwood Vixen was born.

I create handcrafted keepsake jewelry using ashes, hair, fur, and other deeply personal materials. Every piece is made by hand, one at a time, with the same compassion I brought to my years in vet med and the same care I’d want for my own family.

Since 2014 I have had the honor of creating over 5,000 keepsakes for grieving families, pet parents, and new moms; all seeking to preserve life's most precious moments.

Whether you’re remembering a beloved pet, a child, a parent, or a piece of your journey, I’m honored to help you carry that love forward. 

This isn’t just jewelry, it’s memory made wearable.
