Liza Brennan

Personal Heather Moore Collection 
Labradorite Harriet Stone
I love a monogram, but also wanted my baby's name and birthdate on a charm so I decided to double frame the piece so I could wear it either way.  Henry's monogram (HTB, on other side) has since been changed to mean Henry the baby, since this was what one of my friends had thought I was referring to when I used his initials in an email.   
Family has always been very important to me and naturally was at the forefront of my mind when I got married and changed my name.  I wanted a piece that would celebrate my new identity but also highlight and honor all of the pieces of my heritage that came before.  I created a crossword with all of the names on both sides of my family, starting with my new last name and going back on both my mother's and fathers sides to my great great grandparents.

Shannon Riordan

Shannon's personal Heather B. Moore Collection 
This charm is honoring Shannon's family heritage. When Shannon was 13 she went to Ireland with her grandmother to re-trace their ancestry. Stamped on the frame are the coordinates of their original village in Country Cork Ireland.

Julie Ann Lovestrand

Julie Ann's Heather B. Moore personal collection. 
This phrase is from a letter that her Dad wrote her when she graduated from
high school. Heather Moore scanned the letter and made a custom stamp.
 
These are her dads initials.
