Memory Boxes

Memory Boxes are Gifts of Life Foever

Losing a loved one is one of the most emotionally difficult events to endure, one which many will face at one point or another. Often, individuals who are grieving find great comfort in being able to hold a small remembrance or keepsake that the dearly departed left behind. These small tokens often include jewelry, photographs, or perhaps, a small remembrance from a special trip or occasion. It certainly goes without saying that after such a great loss, these small artifacts of the lost loved one are all the more valuable to their surviving friends and family members. These precious mementoes now signify more than just a person, they are pieces taken straight out of history, and of happy memories created or passed onto us from our lost friends or relatives. Moreover, they offer families a physical way to 'reconnect' with the memory of the individual, allowing us to once again feel close to them.

With that said, a beautiful memory box can help protect these treasured remembrances, and keep them stored in a way that they are less likely to be misplaced or lost. These boxes are crafted of a durable material called polystone, and feature gorgeous, angelic and natural designs, in relief. Along with the gorgeous designs, the boxes also feature a heartwarming, antique-white color, creating an effect of timeless elegance. The only aspect that outshines the beauty of these remembrances is the durability they offer, as polystone is very resilient to the elements.  Many of the boxes also feature touching verses that remind us that while the individual may be physically gone, the love and memories they left us will forever remain in our hearts and minds. The boxes allow easy access to the keepsakes placed inside, as they feature a top opening lid, which simply sets onto the base of the piece. Some families seal the boxes when storing a treasured piece, such as cremation ashes, with a clear, silicon-based adhesive. While that is one option, many individuals utilize these small yet durable pieces to hold items such as jewelry, photos, and a lock of hair or even crushed ceremonial flowers. Whatever the use, the gorgeous, yet practical, boxes will help create a treasured remembrance, which can be passed down from generation to generation.

The mementos that our loved ones leave behind certainly become of immeasurable value to us, as they offer a part of our loved one that will never be lost to time. As one of these elegant little boxes reads, "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also". This sentiment certainly speaks volumes, as those pieces of the past that we now hold on to are worth more than any dollar value, and one can only imagine the great sorrow and pain that losing a treasured remembrance can cause. For this reason, among many others, Memorials.com offers a wide variety of elegant remembrance boxes, to hold and protect our most valuable mementos, for all eternity.
