Borderline Creative and me...

Borderline Creative is more than a name; it’s a philosophy. It represents the place where boundaries soften between art and function, chaos and control, memory and imagination. Resin is a medium that invites experimentation — a fluid form that transforms into something lasting and deeply personal.

As the business evolved, so did the heart of what I create. Today, Borderline Creative specialises in flower preservation, memorial jewellery, and breastmilk keepsakes — pieces that honour life’s most meaningful moments. From wedding bouquets captured forever in resin to ashes, hair, or fur set into memorial stones, each item is crafted with care, respect, and intention.

“Borderline” speaks to the experimental, the bold, and the unexpected — the creative edge where risk-taking and intuition meet. Every pour is a balance of precision and spontaneity, a dance between what can be controlled and what must simply be trusted.

“Creative” grounds the brand in its purpose: to make, to honour, and to transform. Whether it’s a statement piece or a delicate keepsake, each creation is shaped by craftsmanship, emotion, and fearless imagination.

Together, Borderline Creative becomes a celebration of individuality, a tribute to memory, and an invitation to find beauty just beyond the edge.

About me

Hi, I’m the person behind Borderline Creative.

I’ve always been deeply sentimental. I keep ticket stubs, handwritten notes, old photos, tiny objects that most people would probably throw away — because to me, they hold memories, feelings, and pieces of people I never want to forget.

For a long time, I needed something outside of my 9–5 that felt personal. Something slower. Something creative. Something that gave me space to breathe and decompress from everyday life.

What started as a creative outlet slowly became something much more meaningful.

After losing my uncle to suicide, I found myself holding onto the little things even more tightly. Grief changes the way you see ordinary objects. Suddenly, a handwriting sample, a date, a phrase, or a small keepsake can feel priceless. I wanted a way to keep memories close — not hidden away in boxes, but carried with me every day.

That’s where Borderline Creative truly began.

Everything I create comes from a place of emotion, connection, and remembrance. Whether it’s preserving a memory, celebrating someone you love, or simply creating something comforting to hold onto, my goal is to make pieces that actually mean something.

This isn’t just a small business to me. It’s a place built from healing, sentiment, and the belief that memories deserve to be carried with us.

Thank you for being here and supporting something so personal to my heart.

I cannot thank Elani enough for my ashes ring and keepsakes she did for me! I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else. I knew she would take perfect care of the ashes and everything to do with making what I asked for. I will always recommend her to anyone who wants anything that needs care taken. She’s perfect!
