Choosing what to do with the cremated remains of a loved one can take some consideration. For some people, it can feel wrong to just place them in a regular urn or scatter them. If your loved one would have preferred options that are unique, there are some excellent ones to keep in mind. Here are some of the ones that providers of cremation services in Richmond, VA recommend.
A popular option is a water burial. This means placing the cremated remains and the urn in the ocean. A great new idea is having the remains placed in an urn made of cardboard, which will sink slowly, allowing you plenty of time to say goodbye to your loved one. You can also place it on top of a block of salt which also dissolves slowly and which will let the urn drift away. It can be a moving way of paying tribute to your loved one.
If your loved one was someone who was always having fun and who disliked somber events, it may feel wrong to have a sedate way of disposing of the remains. An option that some people are choosing is an ash and glitter cannon, which fires the remains into the air. There are also companies that place the cremated remains into fireworks, and which many people are turning to lately. It is definitely a unique option to consider.
Another thing you want to take a look at is placing the cremated remains into a mix of special cement. This can allow you to make a sculpture with the remains. One of the things that people choose to do is benches, which they place in their gardens. If your loved one cared for birds, for example, you can also have the cement and remains mixture made into a bird bath. There are countless options.
Another option is to have the cremated remains made into a diamond. This is a choice that more and more people are opting for because they always want to have their loved one nearby. This diamond can be fitted into any piece of jewelry and it can be a stunning tribute to your love done.
As you start thinking of unique options for your loved one’s cremated remains, these are some of the most beautiful choices.
