Cat Memorial Christmas Project no. 2

Second Freya memorial token following the bespoke porcelain dish (see previous post), but rather for the holiday tree by way of ornament.  From a doctored photo initially on plain eggshell background that an Etsy seller took a stab at, which I then tricked-out further with pastel spray paints and a darker shade of “tarnish” to the gold frame to make it somewhat less garish.  Added my own double-sided powder pink satin ribbon for hanging and an inscription on the back in white ink.

Cat Memorial Christmas Project no. 1

Custom dish of Freya (d. December 11, 2025), ordered through an Etsy operation for my parents in a cream and cranberry design to match a porcelain family china set — and my mother Julie's cardigan, fortuitously!  Blue & white toile wrapping (with washi tape "ribbon") was similarly cat-themed, from Etsy.
