Thumbies & Buddies Keepsakes

Keeping people connected is why we started our business in 1998. That sense of purpose continues to make us passionate about our unique, handcrafted keepsakes. Our mission is to help families celebrate life and the ones they love. We do that by offering a tangible connection—something uniquely personal to their loved one—that brings comfort and reassurance through the transformative power of touch. Each keepsake is as unique as the life that inspires it. As the originator of Thumbies® Fingerprint Keepsakes, Buddies Pet Keepsakes®, and the Phoenix Collection® of Cremation Keepsakes, we have led the way in the print keepsake industry. Our artisans, working in the U.S. heartland, employ the ancient art of lost wax casting to preserve the intricate detail present in each unique print—a quality not found in etched pieces. Each piece is assembled, polished, and finished by hand, because we understand the meaning and importance behind each keepsake that leaves our door. Just as no two prints are exactly alike, so too, no two keepsakes are exactly alike.
