Carry your loved one with you wherever you go. I create this fingerprint charm with my own two hands in my home studio in Northern Virginia using the image of a fingerprint you provide. You have the option to add a handwritten message, name, signature or initials to the back of the pendant along with a wide variety of chain options. If you already have the image of the fingerprint or thumbprint, feel free to attach the image in a message here on etsy or by emailing them to me: [email protected]

If you still need to get the image of the fingerprint, please follow the below instructions.

TO CREATE THE PRINTS->

If you already have a copy of an ink image of a fingerprint, please feel free to message it here to me on Etsy or email it to me: [email protected]

Step 1: Use a pencil to color a smudge on a white piece of paper (a smudge about the size of the finger...this smudge will act as the “ink pad”).
Step 2: press the finger onto the smudge of pencil (don’t worry if you don’t see any of the pencil on the finger, it’ll still show up on the tape)
Step 3: take the piece of tape and press it onto the finger (you can press it onto the finger and really make sure the sticky part is covering the whole area that was pressed onto the pencil)
Step 4: peel the tape off the finger and then lay it sticky side down on a blank area of the white paper
Step 5: take a clear image of the fingerprint with a smartphone (using the flash or taking the photo in bright natural light works best)
Step 6: attach the image to a message to me. I then use photo editing software to sharpen the image of the fingerprint.

Because my designs are very minimalistic, I don't add the .925 mark to my sterling silver pieces, but I do guarantee the quality and silver content.
