Artist Dying To Have Your Cremated Ashes - AOL News

I met a guy at the Quartzsite, AZ gem and mineral show this winter whose sister makes glass beads using cremains. They are made specifically for people who want to keep the beads as a keepsake instead of the ashes. I thought they were beautiful and considered contacting her to make some out of what's left of my father in the little cloissanne jar his wife's family passed on to me. Also heard of a woman who had her cremains placed in little baggies with notes attached to give out to the attendees of her memorial. The notes explained that she wanted each recipient to take their piece of her and scatter it someplace fabulous and fascinating. That's been my personal favorite for my own remains until I read this article. I wonder if he lets you help decide how you'd like your bits and pieces immortalized on canvas...

Thanks Shebow,

I appreciate your honesty and admiration for my after care art service for humans and pets. Someday I hope to get commissions from zoo's for exotic animals, like a Panda bear, zebra or tiger, oh my!
