The process involves carefully placing a photograph within the confines of a locket. This typically requires resizing and shaping the image to fit the locket’s interior dimensions. An example would be trimming a family photograph to fit a heart-shaped locket, preserving a cherished memory in a wearable format.
This practice provides a tangible way to keep loved ones close or commemorate significant events. Historically, lockets served as miniature portraits, offering a discreet and personal means of remembrance. The benefits extend beyond sentimentality, providing a unique and personalized accessory.
