Kory Stevens did a remarkable job on this piece! I absolutely love it. I didn't expect to receive it as quick as I did but here it is and it's absolutely beautiful. I would highly recommend her and would have her create another piece for me if and when the time comes.
Really happy with the piece, artist did a wonderful job and incorporated my own shells beautifully. A really special memorial.
Just as a small heads up to buyers, if you ship the ashes through USPS, they require a special box and priority express so it cost an additional $47 for me to ship the ashes to the artist. Still thrilled with my purchase and had a wonderful experience with Spirit Pieces.
Kori is very talented. She used all of our kitty's ashes and even sent an extra shell with the extra resin. Everything was packaged so carefully. You can tell how much pride and care she puts into her work. ❤️ Our little girl loved water. I called her my little mermaid so the shell was a perfect way to honor her memory.
I absolutely love my ocean shell piece and I know my husband would as well! We used to live in Hawaii and he loved the beaches, and since I wasn’t able to bring him to the ocean, this brought a little bit of the ocean to him! I was even able to send some tiny shells from a necklace from our last trip there that the artist included, which makes this piece even more special to me. I shall cherish this always, it’s perfect!
This piece uses the dark sand from Higgins Beach in Scarborough, Maine that holds special memories of my mother, Roberta. The sand is a natural gray but became dark when the resin was added. This was unexpected at first but it adds a sense of depth and drama to the piece. I think she would have loved it. Many friends and family have commented how beautiful it is. My mother was an artist and this reflects her spirit very well.
My husband recently passed and Spirit Creations allowed each of us to choose how best to remember (Dad, Soulmate, Friend) in a way which best resonated with each of us. Autumn and Larry shared a loved for the beach; This piece arrived faster than expected, packed beautifully, and perfect. I am very pleased with the artist and with Spirit Creations.
looks more "muddy" than ocean-y. But its still cute and I think my granddaughter will love it. The negative I have is that I used a UPS store pick up and had to pay to get it.
The shell is gorgeous, it turned out better than I hoped. I love how personalized it is, and the artist included a lovely note which shows how much care is put into the work.
I was not entirely in love with the first diorama so I asked them to make another. They were lovely about it and I gladly paid a redo fee. It all worked out perfectly. The second one was beautiful. Turns out my mother liked the first one best! So I am keeping the redo.
Point is, they were amazing to work with!!
It's a beautiful memory of my mother in law made with some of her ashes. She loved the beach and shells. It will set next to a small urn with her ashes. Glad I had made.
I love this piece. I had this made with the remaining bit of ashes that were leftover from a necklace Spirit Pieces made me.
This shell is perfect for my Mom's memorial piece because she loved the ocean so much. 💙
This is an absolutely stunning piece.
Thank you Spirit Pieces!
I ordered this piece for my daughter so that she can always have a piece of her brother with her. It’s GORGEOUS. It really looks like the sea washing up on a beach. She loves it so much. Thank you for your beautiful work and for offering this service for all of us that grieve the lost of someone.

Pay for your purchase by credit card, Paypal or payment plan.
We ship you the collection kit (if applicable) free of charge, along with any ordered accessories or non-infused products.
You ship back the collection kit to the artist.
We'll generally have everything back to you within 6 weeks of the artist receipt of the kit.
If you are ordering a self-fill pendant, bracelet or urn you add ashes into at home you can disregard the rest of this section, there will be no collection kit.
Handling The Cremation Ash is Easy and Quick
Takes no more than a minute.
Collection Baggie seals securely.
If you are uncomfortable handling ashes (very understandable) you can ask a friend or your local funeral home if they will do this step for you and/or prepare little baggies with the proper amount to include in the sample baggie. If you take this approach, just be sure to write your name and order number on the baggie.
You can send ashes FedEx or USPS. If sending USPS, ideally cremation ash should be shipped to us USPS Priority Express as per the postal service regulations on shipping cremains; we'll accept shipments if they arrive to us otherwise.
We do not cover the cost of shipping the kits back to us; if you're sending to multiple artists you have the option to send all kits to our Austin location. If you do this, this can delay your order 2-3 weeks as kits are transferred to each artist at the end of every month. You are of course welcome to send individual kits directly to the artist, just be aware that you'll need to pay for each kit. If you are only ordering from one artist, please send directly to the artist.
Cost to send kits FedEx is approximately $15, sending USPS Priority Express costs $45 to $65 based on your distance from artist..
The ash will appear as small light grey specks along with occasional bubbles. If there is extra ash left over we can either scatter locally or return the ash to you via priority express mail as per your instruction (additional costs will apply to cover the postage of returning ashes to you.)
Please keep in mind these are handmade just for you so there will be slight differences from piece to piece. Please note that if you order across styles you will be ordering from multiple artists so you may have to send out multiple kits.
All products can be infused with ash from both people and pets. We can combine ashes from multiple pets/people in one piece (mixing of ashes occurs on customer side.)
The kits are good for 18 months, there is no need to wait to have the ashes physically accessible before ordering the kit. We suggest having the kit ready for the ashes once they become available.
We at Spirit Pieces believe that memorializing loved ones is best done as a family. Towards that end we offer discounts based on cart value, with higher discounts as the cart value increases.
Our current family order* promotions:
10% off orders of greater than $300
15% off orders of greater than $600
20% off orders of greater than $1200
Discount automatically applied and visible during checkout. The higher the cart value, the greater the group discount.
We suggest a single person order and distribute the Spirit Pieces to keep everything as simple as possible.
You can order all the same item, or all different items, in terms of the discount as long as you exceed the discount threshold you'll receive the discount.
Please keep in mind that as we're an artist collective, our artists are in different locations soif multiple artists are ordered you may need to send out multiple kits (read this note regarding). We cover the cost of sending you the collection kit, and sending you the memorial, but not the cost of sending the kit back to us. We ask you send the collection kit(s) back USPS Priority Express or Fedex.
To start a family order:
Write an introductory email or post to friends and family who might be interested in purchasing a Spirit Piece in memory of the loved ones and share our site. We've prepared an example email for you to share here.
Ask them to send you links to what they wish to purchase along with any customization notes.
Add their selections to the cart using the 'Add to Cart' button.
When all orders are in, click on the little cart icon on the top of the site to check out.
We will email you an invoice you can share to collect money, if applicable.
* Family orders are defined as orders >=$300
Common Family Ordering Questions:
If I order from different artists, does that affect the discount?
No, discounts are based on total cart value, so every item can be a different color/artist. As long as it's all in the same order you'll get the discount.
Do all my items need to be the same style/color?
No, they can all be different.
I want to send some items to different locations, how do I do this?
We offer free shipping as long as a single artist is sending to a single location. If you are working with different artist, each artist can ship to a different address, but all work from that artist needs to ship to that selected address.
Collection kits are included in price and sent with 1-2 business days of your order.
We send a simple to use collection vial that takes under a minute to fill and will use up a tiny fraction of available ashes (in most cases.)
If you are uncomfortable handling ashes (very understandable) you can ask a friend or your local funeral home if they will do this step for you and/or prepare little baggies with the proper amount to include along side the vial in the sample baggie. If you take this approach, just be sure to write your name and order number on the baggie and include with the empty vial.
