Personalized In Memory Patches
In recent years the trend for sympathy gifts sent to funeral homes and the home of those passed has moved past the traditional flowers and to more lasting and meaningful gifts that allow grieving family members to keep the gifts forever. These lasting tributes are not only wonderful condolence gifts to receive but also to give. With so many beautiful and thoughtful gifts one gift seems to stand out above all others; memorial wind chimes.
Driving through neighborhoods you will often find, hung on porch rafters or in gardens hung from shepherd hooks, wind chimes to add beautiful songs sung by nature's breeze. Almost everyone loves listening to the soft songs of as they enjoy the outdoors and adding meaning to these wind chimes will add even more value to their songs. Becoming increasingly popular for that matter and the ability to personalize the sails adds that much more meaning to them. Personalized with poems, bible verses, quotes, or your own personal note, along with the loved one's name and dates puts these a step ahead of traditional wind chimes right off the shelf. They bear the loved one's name and can rouse great memories whenever their tune is heard.
Another huge benefit to giving non-traditional sympathy gifts, such as the wind chimes, instead of floral arrangements is the simple fact that flowers perish. A person may remember many specific details during the course of a funeral, however days, months and years passed is a slightly different story. The person may still remember some details, but it is quite unlikely that they will remember all the beautiful flowers or still have them, as many of the floral arrangements are donated after a funeral. Personalized wind chimes, along with other sympathy gifts such as angels, pictures, keepsake boxes, and jewelry make great keepsakes long after the funeral process is complete. These non-traditional keepsake gifts allow the recipients to pick them up, hold them, hear them, and fill their mind and heart with wonderful memories of their passed loved one and the ability to personalize the keepsake gift makes it that much more special!
