Memory Highland Cow Keepsake - Handmade from Loved One's Clothing
Memory Highland Cow Keepsake 🐮💗
Each Memory Highland Cow Keepsake is lovingly handcrafted to transform your loved one's clothing into a comforting keepsake to treasure for years to come.
Designed with its gentle expression, fluffy Highland fringe and beautifully handcrafted details, this larger keepsake captures the unmistakable character of a Highland Cow while preserving the precious memories held within the clothing you provide.
Whether created from treasured baby clothes, a loved one's favourite outfit, school uniform or other special garments, every keepsake is individually handmade, making each Highland Cow completely unique.
Designed to sit beautifully on a shelf, cabinet or bedside table while remaining wonderfully soft and cuddly to hold, this keepsake offers comfort, love and lasting memories for years to come. 🤍
Every Highland Cow is individually cut, sewn and finished by hand in my Middlesbrough home sewing room 🧵💜 where your clothing is treated with the utmost care, respect and attention to detail.
Why Choose the Fur & Fleece Upgrade? 🐮
The optional Fur & Fleece Upgrade gives your Memory Highland Cow its traditional Highland appearance, with soft Antelope fur used for the head and tail, and Antique Cream fleece used for the horns, nose, inside ears and foot pads.
Your loved one's clothing is still beautifully showcased throughout the keepsake, creating the perfect balance between preserving treasured memories and capturing the unmistakable Highland Cow look.
If this option isn't selected, your Highland Cow will be lovingly created using only the clothing you supply.
The Fur & Fleece Upgrade is completely optional and can be selected before adding your Highland Cow to your basket.

Item Details 💗
Your Memory Highland Cow Keepsake requires at least 6–8 baby or children's garments or at least 2 adult garments. You're very welcome to send more if you'd like me to have a greater choice of fabrics and pattern placement when creating your keepsake.
The Highland Cow measures approximately 12.5 inches when seated and 17 inches when standing, although the final size may vary slightly depending on the clothing used.
Designed with fixed arms and legs, this larger keepsake is wonderfully soft and cuddly while maintaining its classic Highland Cow shape, making it perfect for displaying or holding close.
Black safety eyes and a soft fleece nose are carefully fitted, and each Highland Cow includes a sewn-in Stacey's Loveable Keepsakes safety label.
All keepsakes are professionally lined with 100% cotton interfacing for added strength and durability before being filled with super soft, hypoallergenic, fire-resistant polyester stuffing.
If there is a particular logo, pattern, pocket, embroidery, name or special area of clothing you would like featured, please leave details in the notes at checkout, and I will do my very best to include it. 💗
