Fabulous Custom Heriloom

Found Cloth2Clay at a bridal showcase with my future sister in law. Shopping for her wedding. Having been married 6 years ago, I loved the idea that my wedding dress could be present in our home. We showcase it in the china cabinet. It is stunning and a conversation piece. Now I do not feel guilty having never had my dress cleaned and preserved in a box no one will ever see again. Thank you Cloth2 Clay!

Outstanding

Renee brought my wedding back to life with an exquisite recreation of my wife’s wedding dress. I surprised my wife with the sculpture on our first anniversary and she was speechless about the craftsmanship and accuracy. It is the centerpiece of our bedroom decor. Renee was incredible to work with and very very friendly. She hit a deadline well ahead of time and the worked solely with photos of the wedding. I would recommend to anyone who wants something unique and special for their wedding memories.

Beautiful wedding gift!!

I am so fortunate that I happened to walk by an art fair one day and saw Renee’s work. She made an absolutely beautiful replica of my sister’s wedding dress! Her work is meticulous and truly will be something special for my sister fondly remember how beautiful she looked on her wedding day. Renee is incredibly kind and wants nothing more than to make something you will treasure forever!
