« Previous EntriesWho’s Your Mommy?
Monday, May 12th, 2008Life in the Garden might be an extreme version of the Mommy Blog phenom. It’s the flip side. Instead of changing diapers we’re buying Depends (for a family member, thank you) and assisting families with choices that no one wants to make. Women that suddenly find themselves a member of the Widow’s Club. Sadly, […]
Running for the Roses
Friday, May 9th, 2008Now available: Our new Bronze Beauty Equestrian Keepsake Urn is such a powerful tribute and so well done! Sculpted using the lost wax process, this sculpture has the look and weight of bronze and stands on it’s own as a piece of art, a keepsake urn or mounted on a full size horse urn. […]
Confessions of a Small Business Owner Pt. 5
Wednesday, May 7th, 2008Five Years of Consternation:
Revelations in the Garden: Just realized that we (me, myself and I) have been consternated for the last five years. Five Years! Who knew?
Apparently everyone around me. While sorting thru some photos snapped on mother’s camera, and some shots taken in my last season on the JOB in the […]
Back in Black
Tuesday, May 6th, 2008Motorcycle Urns are back at the Urn Garden after a brief absence. We’ve had many families looking for the “Back in Black” motorcycle urn, so we’re offering a basic steel tank painted in rich red satin, silver, or glossy black enamel. Topped with a decorative chrome gas cap, our motorcycle tank urn easily loads […]
We Have Wood!
Friday, May 2nd, 2008Wood work. All week. Adding new styles to our wooden urn line. Love this beautiful high gloss burl wood chest.
And the Sonota Memory Chest Urn. Our talented engraver can personalize the wood urns with names and dates, and customize for the deer hunter or hummingbird lover.

Cheryl Thompson Morrow Pt. 2
Friday, April 25th, 2008More with Cheryl Thompson-Morrow of Thompson Funeral Home, Broadman, OH.
20 Years Later: “It’s been a good career choice, the initial transition was difficult, because many of the families insisted on working with my father, and weren’t accustomed to a female funeral director.
On Technology: “Technology has really freed our time up, in that in the old […]
Paddle Out
Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008No, not this kind, although we are drying out. (Thanks to the busdriver for the image)
This kind:
The Hawaiian inspired ash scattering style at sea. So beautiful.
And on a lighter note, In the Mailbox: POSTCARDS FROM MAUI
The parents are in Hawaii and here’s a quick note from Dad, verbatim:
Hi Lenette
I’m trying to figure out how to […]
Confessions of a Small Business Owner Pt. 4
Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008The red buds are peaking this week, and it smells sooo good outdoors. The Urn Garden is downwind of two monster lilac bushes that are so fragrant.
And that my friends is the problem. Or is it? There’s no separation between work and home. It’s getting better, but when you cross the threshold at […]
Weeping Cherry
Thursday, April 17th, 2008In The Mailbox: One of our clients sent a nice note thanking us for our assistance and the recommendation of a Weeping Cherry for a tree dedication. Honestly, I don’t remember making that suggestion, but the Weeping Cherry is one of my favorite ornamental trees and a stunning centerpiece for a memorial tribute. […]
Memorial Tips from Keith Richards
Tuesday, April 15th, 2008In this month’s Blender magazine Keith Richards answers a fan’s email:
Can you clear up once and for all the thing about snorting your dad’s ashes- I’ve seen you quoted as saying that you did, then that you didn’t and then recently that you did. Which is it?
Richards’ Reply: It’s about halfway in between. You want […]
