💛 Clothing Guide 💛

For a Memory Lion, 12–14 pieces of baby clothing are recommended to ensure there is enough fabric to work with.

Please note that materials which cannot be cut with fabric scissors—such as leather, thick vinyl, raincoat material, or very thick fabrics—are not suitable for Memory Lions. Extremely stretchy fabrics, such as swimsuits, are also not recommended.

Very thin or see-through fabrics may be too delicate to use on their own, but may still be used as accent or layered details depending on the material.

Pants do not count as one full clothing piece due to their narrow shape, but are still very welcome to include, as small sections can sometimes be used for certain parts of the lion.

If the clothing consists of preemie or newborn sizes only, please include 2–3 additional pieces, as these garments are smaller and provide less usable fabric.

For adult clothing, the following is generally recommended:

  • 2–3 pieces for standard adult-sized garments
  • 3–5 pieces if the clothing runs very small

If the clothing provided is not sufficient, a plain white fabric may be used to complete the Memory Lion.

Any clothing not used in the creation of the Memory Lion, along with larger leftover fabric pieces and meaningful scraps, will be carefully returned with the finished keepsake lion. 🤍

 

💛 Birth Weight Add-On – Please Note 💛

The maximum weight available is 8lb 

This item is intended as a keepsake and is not a toy.

The weight is created using securely enclosed steel shot pellets.

⚠️ Do not microwave, heat, or warm this keepsake.

This is not a heatable lion, weighted therapy lion, or stuffed toy.

For decorative and sentimental purposes only.

 

Weight Disclaimer

Different scales may give slightly different readings due to normal variations in calibration. Every effort is made to create your weighted keepsake as accurately as possible, and the finished weight is verified on our scale before shipping. Due to differences between scales, a slight variation in weight readings may occur and does not indicate a defect in the keepsake.

 

How to Send Your Baby Clothes for Keepsake

Please make sure all clothing is clean before sending it to us, so we can properly receive and handle your items.

📦 Place the clothing directly into the package you’ll be mailing, and include a small note with your order number and name inside.

🖊️ If it’s easier, you may also write your order number and name clearly on the outside or back of the mailer or box.

👉 Please note: sometimes the name on the shipping label is different from the name on the order. To avoid any confusion, kindly include a note indicating who the clothing belongs to and the corresponding order number.

This helps ensure your precious clothing never gets mixed up with another customer’s items, and that every keepsake is created with the correct order and memories. 🤍

✨ Package & Ship ✨

Once your clothing is prepared, please seal it securely in a mailer or box.
Ship the package to the address provided in your order confirmation email.

⚠️ Please note:

  • Customers are responsible for all shipping costs.
  • We are not responsible for items lost or damaged during transit.
