We do! However, AfterPay is currently set up for Australian & New Zealand residents only at this time. 

We look forward to hopefully offering AfterPay to other countries as soon as it is available for us to do so!

Queensland, Australia. However, we ship WORLDWIDE and have done so since 2013. We have an official Australian Customs permit that allows you to send your materials to us from overseas

Inclusions must be sent within 6 weeks of ordering. Please be mindful to only place an order if you will be prepared to package and send your inclusions off to us within this time frame. 

An automated email will be sent after 6 weeks to remind you to send your items to us if you haven't already done so.

Beautiful things take time, especially when they are lovingly and professionally handcrafted using both such organic & personal inclusions, with made to order high quality solid golds and silver jewellery.

Once your package arrives into the studio, it can take anywhere between 4 - 12 weeks for us to create, finalise and send home. Melanie, our sole creator and magic multi-tasker, is in the studio full-time most weeks to ensure we are working as efficient as possible. Our customers can use the  Track your order page to keep up to date.

We are both passionate creators & Mothers, with our core belief honouring balance.

We only guarantee sending home remaining cremation ash and umbilical. If we are working with hair or fur and are aware they are from someone who has sadly passed on, we will always include the left over fur or hair if there is any remaining.

We do not send back milk, either preserved or non preserved, and reserve the right to dispose of unused milk. We typically store some left over milk in the studio for a period of time after an order is complete, for peace of mind.

Please do not send us all that you have of any type of materials being used. We would rather you send a small amount than be disappointed that you no longer have any for safe keeping. 

We are a professional and in demand handcrafted service that works with a high level of orders both locally and internationall. Each order deserves the highest level of thoroughness, care and respect, and to achieve this, we require the time to do this

Working with milk involves using only professional preserving methods to ensure your milk will remain the same as the day you receive it. We do NOT use a craft project DIY powder method for preservation, and this can contribute to out turnaround time

We care dearly about our customers and their heart felt possessions. If you feel overly anxious about allowing another person to handle your personal items at this time, then perhaps wait until you are most comfortable in doing so.

Sorry, we do not create custom designs as we work with an extremely high volume of orders and time does not permit this.

While we do have a wide variety of settings to choose from, we can not alter a style or change the shape of a stone etc unless specified in the listing.

Please make sure you are certain on your design choice, your ring size, and any potential shimmers or flecks, prior to purchasing. Once you place your order you will not be able to make changes to the design, metal choice, or size.

You may change your flecks and shimmer choices prior to sending your package to us, however you will be required to email us to do so to ensure we have the correct details saved to your order and avoid confusion.

Ensure you have used the 'special instructions' box at checkout to add all sizing notes, engraving (only on specified designs), shimmers, and other choices. Please email us directly after purchase if you cannot find this box.

Once your order is placed and materials have been sent to us we cannot add to an existing order. You will be required to create a new order and may need to send materials for this separately, depending on multiple factors & each individual circumstance. 

This may cause a delay in your first order being sent within our standard turn around time, or each order will be sent seperately.

Please always email us at beyondthewillowtree@outlook.com if you are thinking about adding an additional order.

Yes, if you have made an order and haven’t yet sent within the 6 week guideline as yet, you can add another design. Ensure you send enough materials for all pieces and you MUST state all order numbers on the back of your envelope and inside your package to avoid confusion. 

Please email us first so we can add important notes to your existing order.

Please always alert us straight away by email at beyondthewillowtree@outlook.com & we will update your details on your online order.

We highly recommend using an alternative address if you think there's a possibility you may be on holidays/moving house in the 12 weeks post sending your package.  If you fail to alert us right away before we send your package, we take no responsibility.

If your package is under the category 'creating', it may be too late to make this change.

This is absolutely normal! All natural elements we work with is as individual as you are. Colours of all inclusions vary from person to person, so there will never be one which looks exactly like the next. The use of shimmers and flecks may also not give the exact same effects or colour, but this is one of the reasons your keepsake is so special. It can never be exactly replicated.

We have been designing and handcrafting using these specific elements since 2013, however, even in our professional experience, there are times we may find a little bubble captured. Or perhaps some strands of hair that have moved during the curing process. We take pride and joy in what we do, and we work our absolute best to give you the most beautifully created keepsake we can.

Each piece of jewellery is handmade from start to finish, so your inclusion stone may not be flawless, like that of a machine made stone.

In saying this, if there is something wrong with your order which clearly shows was a flaw that could have been managed and avoided (judged case by case), we will be more than happy take a look at this and work with you to find a perfect solution.

Please email right away at beyondthewillowtree@outlook.com to discuss.

We understand that each piece holds an emotional bond and connection, however as an artist, Melanie can only work with the materials she receives in a way that works for that particular piece. What you see on the website is a picture of someone else's finished piece, this may not be what you will exactly get - However possibly very close! 

Colours and textures play a huge part in how each piece will work, and by purchasing a design by us, you are happy for us to use our skills to create something special for you which is handmade, accepting there may be a slight imperfections. 

In the case of imperfections, there are a variation of normal possible imperfections such as a little bubble, and there are abnormal imperfections. We are always more than happy to discuss further if this situation does occur!

We will always strive to use our creative judgement and create a keepsake for you that you will love and admire every day.
