Tracy Fishburn, owner of Tracy’s Treasured Keepsakes, is thrilled to introduce her latest keepsake creation – an adorable, handcrafted puppy made from cherished baby clothes. Parents can now turn those first outfits into a beautiful keepsake to display, rather than hiding them away in storage. This exciting new product will officially launch at The Baby Show, ExCeL London, in March 2025, where Tracy will be on hand to showcase the design and discuss bespoke orders. Visitors to the show will also have access to an exclusive offer – 10% off and free personalisation for orders placed at the event.

Each keepsake puppy is completely unique, as it is crafted from the customer’s own baby clothes. The keepsake puppy is approximately 28-30 cm from its sitting position and sits upright, making it a perfect display piece. Every design is bespoke, ensuring no two are ever the same. Tracy personally handcrafts each and every keepsake, ensuring meticulous attention to detail and a high standard of quality – a testament to her dedication as a solopreneur.

Tracy’s Treasured Keepsakes began in 2018 during Tracy’s maternity leave when she crafted a keepsake bear from her eldest daughter’s baby clothes. What started as a small passion project has now become a multi-award-winning business, with a six-month waiting list and a reputation for transforming sentimental clothing into treasured keepsakes. Tracy specialises in creating bespoke memory bears, cushions, and blankets, with 80% of her work dedicated to memorial keepsakes, offering comfort to grieving families through her skill and creativity.

The new puppy keepsake can be fully personalised with a child’s name and date of birth, which is beautifully embroidered for a lasting touch. Parents can also choose to have their keepsake weighted to match their baby’s birth weight for an extra sentimental touch. To create one of these special keepsakes, Tracy requires 5-7 items of clothing, which can include a mix of sleep suits, vests, dresses, and tops, ensuring that each puppy is as individual as the child it represents.

Charlotte Millett from Choppington, Northumberland said “Incredible! If you’re still on the fence as to whether to purchase a keepsake bear from Tracy, absolutely do it! Received my 2 bears made for my sons with their first outfits since birth yesterday after ordering earlier in the year, and I am so, so happy! They’re beyond beautiful. The meticulous work put into them both is amazing. Would 100% recommend. Tracy has provided updates from receiving the clothes to when production started etc., to when she had posted them, and I honestly cannot thank her enough for giving me something to treasure from my sons' first moments of life. Thank you so, so much again!”

At The Baby Show, Tracy will have examples of all her keepsake designs on display, allowing visitors to see and touch the craftsmanship first-hand. She will be available throughout the event to answer questions, discuss bespoke requests, and provide insight into her process. Tracy prides herself on a highly personal service, ensuring each customer receives updates at every stage of their keepsake’s journey, from receiving the clothing to the final stitch.

Priced at £65 plus postage, the puppy keepsake is an affordable and meaningful way to cherish a child’s early years. Parents can book a free, no-obligation consultation call to discuss their clothing choices, visit Tracy at The Baby Show, or place an order via the website at www.tracystreasuredkeepsakes.co.uk  The process is simple: secure a space on Tracy’s waiting list, send the clothing, and let Tracy work her magic!
