Orange cat in the Locked in Art glass blowing studio in Arizona

A Personal Beginning

Locked In Art began after we lost one of our own.

Like so many people, our home was filled with animals who were part of our everyday life. When we lost Ike, the quiet felt different, and we found ourselves wanting something tangible to hold onto that connection.

What started as something we made for ourselves is now something we create for others, carefully crafting each memorial by hand in our Arizona studio.

Every piece we make carries that same intention, to create something personal, lasting, and meaningful.

Kind Words from Our Customers

  • Round decorative item with swirling blue and green pattern on a white background

    They have found a life customer in me, and if you are on the fence, don't be!

    Words cannot even begin to describe the level of gratitude I have for Patti and all those at Locked in Art, that helped me keep my precious Cleo's memory alive in these beautifully crafted works of art! I ordered 3 pieces total because they were all so gorgeous I couldn't pick just one. This was a soul cat that I was blessed to have under my care for almost 15 years, and loosing her took a piece of me with her. When I found Locked In Art I knew right away I wanted to memorialize my girl in some of these jewelry. The customer service, from start to finish is remnant of the 5 star service us Gen Xers and older remember! ;). Patti and her quick turn around in response was amazing, and she really does mean it when she says to ask anything! The level of kindness and support, from the ease of tracking and the gorgeous artistry of these pieces made me feel at peace during a very painful time. This will not be a mistake I promise!

    With many thanks and gratitude.

    Thank you so much for a great experience and a beautiful piece of jewelry.  Your presentation is perfect for such an emotional order. From the tissue paper to the pillow, the entire unwrapping was lovely and underscored the experience of working with you.  The bracelet is lovely and tasteful, the engraving on both the box and the back of the bracelet looked clear and readable.  Thank you so much for offering a tasteful means for those of who have lost a loved one a means to honor and remember them.

  • Round glass marble swirl button abstract design on a white background

    The care and kindness is soul touching, thank you so much.

    I ordered three necklaces 10 years ago with my sisters ashes, to this day I wear it. We wanted to commemorate my sister and babies we had lost. Once again, absolutely gorgeous work! (These beads were added to the necklaces)

  • Black Marble Button with Cremation Ashes

    They ask for pictures of your baby(ies) to put up in front of their work area as they craft the jewelry.

    My greyhound littermates--The Wonder Twins, Pixel and Mudfork--can now be with me wherever I go. It's such a great comfort to be able to simply look down, see them, and feel a boost from their presence.

    Not only is Roman an old high school friend, he’s a talented glassblower (my babies are in glass, not the usual resin that I saw offered from other jewelers). He and his lovely wife work together to create gorgeous memorial pieces, animal and human. Roman and Patti are animal lovers too. Thank you, Roman and Patti, for bringing this beautiful cremation ring
    to life and working so hard to make sure it was everything I wanted.
    🦄🦖💙




  • Round decorative item with swirling blue and green pattern on a white background

    I am so impressed!!!

    I ordered nine pieces of jewelry from you a couple years ago. I should have reached out back then.  The entire process was so painless, and done with such care and respect. I was rather hesitant to order online, but EVERYBODY needs to do business with you.  My granddaughter says she puts her little bead in her mouth when she needs Papa. I wear mine every day.  Thank you for restoring my faith in humanity. 

  • Black Marble Button with Cremation Ashes

    Thank you so so much

    I can honesty say my beads are so beautiful and the way they are presented is stunning, the knowing my love will be with me everywhere is priceless. xx

  • Round glass marble swirl button abstract design on a white background

    I cannot be any more pleased.

    This purchase is everything I expected. It is exactly what I ordered. I wear it everyday. Communication with the shop owners was easy and their responses were quick and informative. I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again. This pendant will be treasured for a lifetime.

  • Marbled red and white circular object on a white background

    Super professional, & super accommodating.

    Patti and Roman are amazing to work with. The beads are so gorgeous that I literally cried when I opened the package and laid my eyes on them. Quality is unsurpassed.

  • Round decorative item with swirling blue and green pattern on a white background

    Love everything about them.

    Bought 4 for myself, sisters and daughter. Service and communication second to none. Very special jewellery and even more special people. Thank you.

  • Black Marble Button with Cremation Ashes

    I can't say enough nice things about my experience.

    Patti was very sweet answering ALL my questions( I had a ton). Losing my dad was honestly the hardest thing I think I have ever went through so having this necklace makes me feel a little better. Able to have part of him close means alot. Thanks again Y'all are AMAZING!!!!

  • Round glass marble swirl button abstract design on a white background

    They are a God send.

    Locked in Art is the most kind hearted, professional, warm and caring people. From the beginning of the process through the end they stayed in touch. They made the whole process so easy. I was worried that I would not be able to collect my babies ashes, but no worries, they provide the sweetest, most dignified little kit for that, and made the process as painless as possible, including mailing back to them. Highly recommend. I will have my babies around my neck and close to my heart for eternity. Thank you.

  • Marbled red and white circular object on a white background

    I wish there were more than 5 stars....as this shop would get a 10.

    I ordered 2 necklaces in 2 different colors. Both pieces are beautiful. The friendliness and kindness you both show to your customers is truly amazing. The extra stones you sent, the cleaning cloth, as well as the engraved box is just amazing. Even the way everything was wrapped in the box just shows how much time and care you put in to making sure everything was perfect. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

  • Round decorative item with swirling blue and green pattern on a white background

    I can not say enough how much I love my necklace and how wonderful they were to work with.

    In August, I lost my beloved cat Sadie and wanted to keep a piece of her with me. I found Patty and Roman's work here and fell in love. After starting the process, I lost my other beloved kitty Charlotte. They went above and beyond by waiting to start until I could get them Charlotte's ashes as well. Although my only contact was via email with Patty, it was apparent that she truly cared about what she was doing and knew how much it meant to me! I truly cannot thank you guys enough for helping me to keep those sweet girls close to my heart... always!

  • Black Marble Button with Cremation Ashes

    Worked with me through a special order without missing a beat.

    It's too bad that there are only 5 stars. This piece deserves so much more. Patti & Roman were professional and compassionate. They made a difficult time just a little easier. Thank you!!!

  • Round glass marble swirl button abstract design on a white background

    It is just as pictured.

    I picked the black color for our black lab we had to put to sleep. He was 12 and our best friend. It's a nice comfort to have a piece of him with me and was beautifully made. Excellent quality. I'm adding charms to the necklace.

  • Marbled red and white circular object on a white background

    This came out beautifully.

    I was hesitant to send a small amount of the ashes through the mail, but they returned what they did not use and even the little drippings of glass used to make the bead which had contained pieces of ash. Mine came out perfect. I hung it from my car's rear view mirror so that I can be reminded of my pup often. Very courteous service and quick turnaround.

  • Round decorative item with swirling blue and green pattern on a white background

    The beads came out perfectly.

    Service was very professional. We will always treasure these.

  • Black Marble Button with Cremation Ashes

    Absolutely perfect.

    The seller is very nice, walks you through each step of the process, and includes package tracking. The ash kit arrived within a few days after i placed my order and it made collecting my dog's ashes easy and comfortable. The bead arrived quickly and is beautiful! i especially love that i had the option to have my dog's name engraved on the silver of the bead. It is something i will wear every day. I know it will bring me comfort knowing i have a piece of my dog close to me. Thank you so much! I highly recommend this shop!

  • Round glass marble swirl button abstract design on a white background

    Words can not really express what I need or should say. But, thank you.

    Very professional and beautifully made. Knowing my mother is with me each and everyday helps give me peace. Thank you for making a connection.

  • Round decorative item with swirling blue and green pattern on a white background

    It it truly a work of art and a very high quality piece of jewelry.

    I love the beautiful presentation and wrapping of both of the collection container for the ashes and the final piece. Thank you so much! I feel so impersonal leaving just this feedback for you, because what you have made for me is so personal and precious.
