How to Make Cremation Jewelry at Home Safely – Step-by-Step (2025 Edition)

Updated November 2025

We’ve shipped over 20,000 pieces of memorial jewelry, so we’ve learned a thing or two over the last 7 years.

Supplies we can send you for free:

  • Micro-funnel

  • Toothpick tool

  • Medical-grade permanent adhesive

  • Sealing wax (for extra security)

  • Instructions card + link to this page

Step-by-Step :

  1. Pulverize the ashes to powder (use a mortar & pestle or keep them chunky)

  2. Lay everything on white paper under bright light.

  3. Use the micro-funnel — only ⅛ teaspoon needed.

  4. Drop ashes in with toothpick.

  5. Add one drop of adhesive.

  6. Screw cap tightly.

  7. Let cure 24 hrs.

Common mistake 99% of people make: overfilling. Less is truly more.

Prefer we do it? Just mail the ashes — we fill, test waterproof, engrave, and return insured at no extra charge.
