I created Tiny Beginnings Co. after my own IVF journey - because I needed somewhere to hold those early images that felt worthy of what they meant. Every piece I make carries that same intention.
— Bodhi, founder of Tiny Beginnings Co.How it works
From your image to a piece you'll treasure - here's what to expect.
Share your image
Choose your personalisations, and upload your ultrasound or embryo photo. Any quality works - we've worked with phone photos, scanner images, and clinic printouts.
We hand-create your piece
Your image is hand painted on archival watercolour paper, with honey based pigments. Every piece is unique - no two are ever identical. Framing can be added on - see other listings.
Yours to keep forever
Your finished piece arrives gift-wrapped and ready to display - a permanent, hangable memory of your most precious beginning.
Made with intention
Every piece is painted on 300gsm 100% cotton watercolour paper - the professional archival standard - in either hot pressed (smooth) or cold pressed (textured) finish depending on the painting. I use Sennelier L'Aquarelle watercolours, handmade in France since 1887. Their honey-based formula enhances luminosity, improves paint flow, and acts as a natural preservative, resulting in colours renowned for their brilliance, creamy texture, and exceptional longevity. All brushes are cruelty-free nylon - a deliberate choice to avoid the animal harm involved in traditional sable and squirrel-hair brushes.
Love Notes
Every piece holds a story. Here are a few we have the privilege of carrying.
What you do is really special. The picture is of my daughter ... She passed away during birth and was born sleeping.. so the opportunity to get some art made really means a lot. Thanks again.
Received my image this week in the mail. And it's absolutely perfect. I love it so much. I've got it framed now and can't wait to hang it in our nursery. Such a talent and would highly recommend to be able to remember such a beautiful moment in time so tastefully. 💞
WOW the paintings have arrived and they are SOOOO beautiful!! Thank you so much. I can't wait to share them... trick is going to be keeping it a secret for a couple of months now. They are honestly even better than I could have imagined.
A hand-painted keepsake of the ultrasound you can't stop looking at — in a petite size that's gentle on the budget.
These mini paintings (10×10cm and 10×15cm) are the perfect first piece. Whether you're carrying your first, a long-awaited IVF baby, a rainbow after loss, or honouring a baby you didn't get to bring home, this little painting holds everything that scan means to you — without the bigger commitment.
Every piece is painted by hand (never printed) on 300gsm artist paper using professional watercolours in the colour palette you choose. I'll hand-letter a name, date, gestational age, or short quote if you'd like — just let me know at checkout.
Small but mighty: a meaningful gift for a new mum, an IVF journey, a pregnancy announcement, or a memorial for a baby lost too soon. The mini size sits beautifully on a shelf, a nursery wall, or a bedside table — and makes a thoughtful gift that doesn't ask much of the giver. Each painting arrives ready to frame, gift-wrapped with a personal note.
Ready for something larger? These minis are lovely on their own or as the start of a collection. Explore the standard watercolour ultrasound paintings or the A3 custom watercolour ultrasound paintings, and browse the full paintings collection.
