Eskişehir resident turns memorial jewelry hobby into business
Esma Nur Uyan, a 26-year-old homemaker in Eskişehir, has transformed a personal hobby into a successful small business. After taking a break from her professional career following the birth of her child, Uyan began creating unique jewelry using epoxy resin to preserve meaningful mementos.
Her designs incorporate sentimental items such as a baby’s first hair strands, hair from loved ones, or even soil from graves, turning them into bracelets and other keepsakes. Selling her handmade products through social media, she has attracted significant interest and orders from across Turkey, providing financial support for her family and her child.
