NEW Forget-me-not Memorial Bookmarks with Seeds that Grow When Planted

Plantable Seed Memorial Bookmarks Grow Forget-Me-Not Flowers When Planted

We are very pleased to introduce our new line of memorial plantable forget-me-not bookmarks. It’s long been a tradition to hand bookmarks out at funerals. Since we suggest celebrating the life that was lived, we thought it appropriate to give bookmarks a more contemporary look and feel.

In Lieu of Flowers, Consider Memorial Seed Cards as a Funeral Gift

Plant the cross and wildflowers will grow

Perhaps there is a reason that the term, “in lieu of flowers” has gotten so popular. The trend seems to be that families direct well wishers to putting that money towards something more lasting and meaningful. Often people say, “in lieu of flowers please make a donation to…” and they list their loved one’s favorite charity. While it’s been a tradition at weddings to provide a little something such as a keepsake gift or wedding favor, now funeral favors or gifts are becoming a popular option to sending flowers or making a donation.

Five Most Popular Funeral Gifts

Heart Wildlflower Funeral Card

After the loss of a loved one, it helps to have objects around that help you remember the good times you had together.  It can be very healing to light a candle or wear jewelry that reminds you of your loved one.  In remembering the person, you pay tribute to the memories and special relationship you had together.

If you are attending  a funeral, you may want something to express your sympathy to the family or to give to the other guests and family members.  A small item given out to everyone allows them to take home something to look at and keep, to remember and honor the person who is gone.
