Hello World! Welcome Friends! It is hard for many people to deal with the loss of a loved one. They can feel lost and alone, but there are things you can do to make sure that their memory stays alive in your home. This article will provide some tips on how you can keep their memory alive in your house after they have passed away.
1. Create a Family Tree With Photos
Photos are a beautiful way to keep the memory of your loved ones fresh. Create a family tree with photos and print it out, then hang it up on your wall for everyone to see. You can also keep a family photo album or several of them on your coffee table for everyone to see.
A great way to add beauty and elegance to the house after death is by hanging up beautiful pictures of your loved ones throughout the home. You could frame some photos from vacations together, memorable dates, or even special events that you shared while they were living. Beautifying the walls will make it seem like they are still there enjoying their surroundings with you!
2. Consider What You Want to Do With Any Cremated Remains
After the cremation has been completed, you will be given a small urn with the ashes. You can keep these remains at home or scatter them somewhere meaningful to your loved one. You can even create cremation diamonds out of the ashes, and wear the diamond as a necklace so that it’s kept close to your heart.
Some people want to keep their deceased family member’s cremated remains in an urn from pulvisurns.com and place them on display (similar to putting flowers on a gravesite).. If this interests you, make sure that any container holding the remains has openings sealed shut so that no further dusting off the ashes occurs over time.
Today, there are many types of urns and containers you can choose from to display the remains. Marijuana leaf urns and urns in the shape of a baseball bat and glove are popular choices. While these may not be for everyone, you can check them out as there will be an urn that will suit your needs or desires. One fantastic thing is that you can add engraving to most urns, which is a great way to add your personal touch.
3. Find a Piece of Artwork/Photograph That Reminds You of Them
Another way to remember your loved one is by finding a piece of artwork or photograph that reminds you of them. This could be something as simple as an old photo from their wedding, or it can be a painting created by someone who knew them well. If the person has been deceased for some time and there are no photographs left around the house, consider taking on this project yourself! Pick up some oil paints at the art store and paint what comes to mind when you think about your loved one’s life story – where they grew up, what kind of things made them laugh, etc. Afterward, frame it in an aesthetically pleasing way (or give it directly to family members).
4. Keep Their Favorite Objects Close By
A perfect way to remember a loved one is by keeping their favorite objects or possessions close by. Say, for instance, you can have their favorite jewelry then, clothes, or even an old photo frame of them. If you’re not sure what their favorite object is, ask your family members and close friends about it.
There are plenty of things that can honor a deceased person, such as keeping around their belongings in the house, which will help keep memories fresh in your mind while also giving comfort to those who may still be grieving over the loss.
5. Set Up a Room That Is Dedicated Specifically to Them
If the loved one was an avid reader, for example, you could create a library of sorts filled with all of their favorite books or put some family photos on display in their old bedroom.
If there are any areas where particular memories took place, it would be appropriate to keep these rooms as close to how they originally appeared when the memory occurred so that every time you walk through those doors, it will remind you of that memory.
If the loved one was a musician, it would be appropriate to create an area where their music equipment is on display and put up some family photos in this room.
You can also incorporate meaningful objects into your décor like artifacts (e.g., guitar), sentimental items (e.g., pictures from the first concert they went to together), and other items which remind you of this person’s life accomplishments (e.g., trophy).
In addition, if there are any areas where particular memories took place, keep these rooms as close to how they originally appeared when the memory occurred so that every time you walk through those doors, it will remind you of that memory again!
Losing a loved one is a tricky process to go through. It can be even more complicated if you have no idea how to cope with grief or what possible things there are that will help you overcome it and live your life again. If you want to keep the memory of your loved ones alive and well, there are many ways you can do this. Mentioned in this article are a few that might work for you.
