When you plan burial services for a loved one, you’ll need to spend your fair share of money on funeral-related products. For example, you’ll need to buy things like a casket and a burial vault. It’s why burial services tend to be more expensive than cremation services in Tupelo, MS. You should, however, strongly consider picking up at least a few keepsake items when you’re planning cremation services. You might regret it down the line if you don’t. Here are a few cremation keepsake items that you should think about buying. 


Urn 


If you and your family are going to hold onto a loved one’s cremated remains following their Tupelo, MS cremation, you’ll need to have something to put them in. More specifically, you’ll need to have a cremation urn that can keep them safe. If you only buy one keepsake item while planning a cremation for a loved one, you should make it an urn. You should be able to find an urn that you’ll be happy to show off in your home without having to break the bank on it. 


Jewelry 


Some families have started to divide their loved one’s remains up following their cremations so that they can divide them up among family members instead of keeping them all in one place. In this case, you can have a loved one’s remains placed in multiple urns if you would like. But you can also buy cremation jewelry that is specifically designed to house a small portion of a person’s remains. You can find necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings, and other forms of cremation jewelry. It’ll help each of your family members keep a tiny portion of a loved one’s remains close to their hearts. 


Photo frame 


While you’re in the process of planning out a loved one’s cremation, you’re likely going to spend some time sifting through old family photos of them. While you’re doing this, you might come across one photo in particular that you would like to show off. You should search for a photo frame that would be ideal to display this photo. You might even want to go as far as to customize the frame so that it has your loved one’s name on it along with whatever else you might want to appear on the frame. 


Memorial stone 


If you happen to have a garden outside of your home, you might want to pick up a memorial stone for it to pay tribute to your loved one. You should be able to locate a stone that you can put out in remembrance of your loved one. You might also want to buy a stone like this to put in the place where you scattered a loved one’s remains if you decided to take that approach to dealing with them. It’ll help you identify this location in the future and let others know that your loved one’s remains were scattered there.
