It wasn’t that long ago that when a person died and was cremated, depending on where they lived, the family had a couple of choices of what to do with the cremated remains\u2014which are actually called cremains. Cremains could be buried much like a coffin would be; interred in a tomb; or scattered.<\/p>\n

Now however, the options are almost limitless. All you have to do is Google what to do with cremains<\/a>, or what to do with human ashes<\/a>, and you get more choices than a poor indecisive person like me could ever pick from. <\/p>\n

If though, you would like to keep at least a small portion of the person you love near to you, the last decade or so has offered a plethora of options that would make our grandparents spin in their grave. \ud83d\ude09 <\/p>\n

New and creative ways to keep your loved ones close to you<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. You could turn them into a ring<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. How about a necklace<\/a>?<\/li>\n
  3. Want to design your own jewelry with the ashes of your loved one? How about having a diamond created<\/a> with the ashes?<\/li>\n
  4. Jewelry not your thing? What about a piece of art glass<\/a> for your home?<\/li>\n
  5. If you’re into ink, then maybe you’ll want to talk to your local tattoo artist and see if they’re open to this<\/a>. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    My saxophonic partner in crime, Pete Hales, and I were discussing urns and cremains a few weeks ago. Why? I don’t know how we even got on the topic, but I remembered an article I wrote years ago about using saxophones as urns<\/a>. Then however, Pete took it one step further.<\/p>\n

    Pete mentioned the patented<\/a> resonance stones that Cannonball puts on their saxophones, and how they are supposed to change an instrument’s resonance.<\/p>\n
