3 Unique Things to do with Cremains

Michael Bernardo • June 8, 2020

Have you ever stopped to think about what you want your family to do with your cremated remains after your cremation? It’s something you should think about since there are lots of options available. You can, of course, get some ideas from a Grand Junction, CO cremation services provider. What you’ll discover is that there are some unique options if you want to choose something that’s different from what most people opt for. Here are 3 specific ideas.

1. Jewelry

Did you know that it’s possible to become a piece of jewelry? In other words, you can ask your loved ones to honor your passing with cremation jewelry. Cremation jewelry, in case you didn’t know, refers to jewelry that has a compartment that cremation ashes are placed into. You can make things easier on your loved ones if you make arrangements to have this done – and then let your family know that you’ve made such arrangements. What makes this open all the more interesting is that you – or they – can choose the jewelry. Some might prefer earrings, others might want a ring, and yet others may desire a neckless. The options are many.

2. Painting

This one might seem like a stretch, but it’s a unique option for cremation remains. Would you love to have a portrait of yourself adorn the wall in your family’s home after you pass away? What if a part of you could somehow be interwoven within the portrait? Well it’s possible. If you find the right artist, they’ll be happy to use quality paint combined with some of your ashes to create a portrait that your family will treasure. It will remind them of you – and it will contain some of your ashes. This will make the painting all the more meaningful and unique.

3. Outer Space

Have you ever wanted to boldly go where no one has gone before? There are some companies that specialize in transporting cremation ashes to outer space. The ashes can then essentially be scattered. If that’s the sort of final send-off that you’d love to have, look into it and see if you can make arrangements now. That way, your family will know what to do after you’re cremated.
