We however offer 180+ for the average person, 220+ for a larger person and 375+ as a companion or double size.

  3. When you say we create Custom Urns, just how much input does the customer have?

  4. All choices are wide open to the customer. You may choose an extremely innovative format that starts with a personal concept. You may choose a specific style and then determine the color, texture and embellishment that fit the personality of deceased. Or anything in between. No two lives are exactly alike, why should two urns be exactly alike?

  5. What is a Keepsake Urn?

  6. Keepsake urns are in essence small models of full size urns. They are meant to hold a small portion of the cremation ashes. Many families purchase several so that a loved one's ashes can be divided among those living far apart. We make keepsake urns to complement any of our urns in groups or individually.

  7. What is the best way to seal a cremation urn?

  8. You can choose to not seal your urn if the ashes are to be place inside using a sealed plastic bag, however should you choose to seal the lid, it can easily be sealed with a good quality silicon sealant which can be found at any home depot or hardware store.  Simply apply a bead of  sealant around the inside of the lid, and then securely fasten the lid on to the cremation urn.  If you wanted to someday remove the lid, it is possible if done carefully by a strong person. Simply, twist the lid back and forth until it releases.
