Quite possibly the greatest gift I have received since starting doseofplay.com is a pendant necklace with The Impressions Of A Gold Heart Necklace  fingerprint impression. It’s a one-of-a-kind, small treasure that symbolizes the larger than life power their love has on my heart. It seems quite fitting that this meaningful piece of art comes in the form of an impression from the tip of their finger. Our love, after all, is wrapped around their little finger, right?

No matter the time or situation, this The Impressions Of A Gold Heart Necklace  is literally something  I can easily reach for in good times and bad to keep me grounded. I can hold onto a sense of their being, comforted knowing that I hold a mirror of them close to my heart. I am grateful for the opportunity to have reconnected with Jill Braun to receive this gift and share her work in our local community with you. Impressions Heart Necklace is an impression artist and owner of Praavy.  She is also a mother of four children, a critical care nurse and adventure seeker in any spare time she can find.

I was first introduced to Impressions Heart Necklace while working at a local children’s hospital as a certified child life specialist. When a family loses their child due to terminal illness or unexpected trauma, the child life team assists the family by providing emotional support and developmentally appropriate education to help siblings and loved ones understand and cope during this difficult time. We also offer support by creating keepsakes.  One of those is an impression of their The Impressions Of A Gold Heart Necklace  as a remembrance of their child’s touch and love. These treasured keepsakes are grant funded and fill a unique role in remembrance of a lost child.  While photos can help us re-experience memories with those we love, sometimes what we miss the most is their touch and the feeling of them being close to us.
