The Five Best Pet Memorial Gifts

Losing such a beloved part of your family such a pet is always hard to deal with. You spend countless days connecting with it that when the time finally comes, you’re essentially saying goodbye to a dear family member. While dealing with this loss can be difficult, there are plenty of ways to keep your little friends memory safe and sound throughout the house. Pet memorial gifts are the perfect way to do so. They can be purchased in a number of different shapes in sizes. With the right one, you can always keep your pet close to you. Here is a list of the best options:

These small items serve as a three dimensional frame, where you store pictures of your pet into the crystal. Photo crystals are a great fit for anywhere in the house, whether a personal nightstand, a shelf, or a living room coffee table. Additionally, many allow captions to be engraved around the picture. Many pictures used for photo crystals are brought in as 2D products before being converted into a three dimensional item to be placed within the crystal. As a result, you can view a complete photo of your pet from a number of different angles, making the it one of the best options for remembering them.

Pendants are a great pet memorial gift for keeping your pet close to you. You can preserve their memory, and have their picture close to you at all times. All that is required is a small picture of your pet. You can purchase pendants in a variety of shapes, but one of the most popular shapes is the heart locket.

What better way to keep the spirit of your family’s pet than the soft singing sound of chimes? They make for a great way to show sympathy to others dealing with the loss of a pet, or to add a more soothing way to remembering a pet that has recently passed on. Wind chimes add a very calming effect to the household, and can be a very customizable gift, allowing room for a more personable touch if wanted (i.e., paw prints, quotes, etc.). It is a great addition to an outdoor part of a living space such as an entry way or a backyard deck.

Paperweights have a similar make to photo crystals, except they are shaped to be presented as more of a glass frame than a three dimensional one. The pictures included in the paperweight are included inside of the crystal rather engraved, preserving the quality of the picture of your pet. Paperweights can also be purchased in a variety of shapes, such as diamonds, or rectangular shapes.

Ornaments can be placed anywhere along the house and can be hung from multiple household appliances such as a lamp or a vase. With ornaments, you can place a picture of your dog in a solid crystal object to hang somewhere, or you can chose from a variety of hardware to place a symbol, print, or caption in. Shapes for ornaments include circular, oval, or heart shaped. Ornaments are also very hard to damage or scuff, as many of the photos are already engraved in them via laser etching. As a result, the quality stays true from the day you purchase it.
