Simon Bar Sinister Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 You can also have a loved one's ashes turned into a diamond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savageminstrel Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 We spread some of (our Queen) Caroline's husband Ken's ashes at festival this year in his memory and he has actually been seen at festival a few times... fleeting glances. I think its a nice tribute, although i would be worried about breaking the container. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sass_in_the_pants Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 The jewelry's pretty. Not sure I would ever use it for its intended purpose though. I slept in the same bedroom as my grandparent (still in their UPS shipping boxes) a couple weekends ago when I stayed over at my parents. The next morning my dad was like 'I meant to ask you if you were uncomfortable with the remains of your dead grandparents in the room, but I forgot. You weren't, were you?' Well, uh, not til you said something!!! Dang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunhee Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 You can also have a loved one's ashes turned into a diamond. Got the 25K that it would cost? That's about how much the going rate is for a decent sized diamond. *sighs* Yeah, not happening any time soon. Although, I did threaten my parents if they died together, I'd make them into earings and my brother into a necklace (he's still in my parents desk drawer).

My sister wears a small vial of Dad's ashes around her neck all the time and my brother has one hanging from the handle bars of his motorcycle that we made from a miniature bottle of Jim Beam and strips of leather from Dad's cowboy boots.

Gaf The Horse With Tears Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Thats Dad's resting place. Thats also his last bottle of Jim Beam, there was exactly 3 shots left in it when he died. One for each of us kids. Wow, I need to dust him off.

TygerLili Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 I have a silver...well, I'm not sure what to call it. It's more elaborate than a crucifix, but doesn't have beads, so I wouldn't call it a rosary. Anyway, it has a jewel in the center made from the ashes of the roses covering the casket at my grandma's funeral. My cousin picked it out and surprised me with it a few weeks after the funeral. I really like it, even though though I don't consider my self a Christian at all. My grandma was, so it's fitting. It's always been a conversation piece when I've worn it.
