Evel Knievel RIP

November 30, 2007 urngarden.com

Goodbye Evel, you will be missed by the kids that grew up on your stunts, collected the action figures and even pretended to be you in female form on our bikes....."Stacy and Tracy Knievel Stunt Riders" was a favorite game. Wild World of Sports featuring the latest jump (and crash) was must see t.v. On Evel's site, there is a picture of Evel and another one of our heros....Joey Chitwood.

Big Dogs

November 30, 2007 urngarden.com

Pet owners who favor the larger breeds will often choose our hand-painted ceramic Wolf Urn. Earlier this week, an Akita owner requested this urn style. The problem? The Wolf urn only comes in two sizes, a large 200 cubic inch and a small keepsake size. We offer a similar style pet urn featuring various breeds with a capacity for larger dogs 85-120 pounds, but the clients are sold on the wolf urn. Recently we added two affordable alloy style urns that will accommodate up to 85 pounds. … [Read more...] about Big Dogs

Pardon My Dust

November 29, 2007 urngarden.com

Over the holiday weekend we caught an old favorite, "Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle" with Jennifer Jason Leigh as Dorthy Parker, and was reminded of the author's tragic ending. Four suicide attempts, no heirs, her will was simple: she left her literary estate to Dr. Martin Luther King. Parker was cremated and her ashes sat on a shelf at the crematory for six years.

The Wonder of the Interweb

November 28, 2007 urngarden.com

It doesn't happen often, thank goodness. But occasionally, we'll get an order from a client who is new to the wonderment of the internets. They heard they could get a good deal, in this case...a sensitive purchase, like a cremation urn. Bargains abound, so they set up a juno account, go to the library and jump on the information superhighway. Shop a little, make a purchase, give conflicting shipping information and then disappear into cyber space with no contact information. In the … [Read more...] about The Wonder of the Interweb

Anubis Egyptian Pet Urn

November 28, 2007 urngarden.com

Our Anubis pet urn is back in stock after a brief absence. This funeral urn is a replica of a canopic jar and holds 90 cubic inches. Too bad these styles are not available in a size to handle adult remains, we get several requests for the larger capacity. Dog lovers tend to favor this cremation urn style. Early in Egyptian history, Anubis was a god of the dead. Anubis had three important functions. He supervised the embalming of bodies. He received the mummy into the tomb and performed the … [Read more...] about Anubis Egyptian Pet Urn
