Beauty from the Ashes: Heart Shaped Urns

February 6, 2018 Kim Stacey

Vintage Valentine Card

February, thanks to the Victorians (who transformed Valentine’s Day into what we know it to be today), is a month where love is celebrated; hearts and flowers are everywhere. Even here where, every February, we show off our collection of beautiful heart-shaped urns. Tell you the truth, these are some of our most popular urns – I think it’s because the ‘heart’ symbol ‘says it all’. It represents love and loyalty, but also signifies an “inner knowing of truth”. Let’s take a look.

Mostly small and medium sizes, these heart shaped urns are ideal to create a keepsake that will store a bit of ashes, pressed flowers, sand from a favorite beach or soil from sacred burial ground. While we’re talking about Victorians, they liked to preserve a lock of hair as a memento.  When our dog died, we saved a lock of his fur that I still have today.

We’ve leaned more towards the color purple this month, because it’s a favorite choice to honor a February birthday. So, camo might seem like an odd choice for a funeral urn, but it’s actually preferred by families that favor the outdoor lifestyle. This small camo heart is perfect to create a unique mini memorial.

The Truth about February

Just 36 days into 2018 and the festive optimism of the New Year has worn off. The final weeks of winter loom ahead. It’s cold and dark; a time when our thoughts naturally turn inward. Sometimes, we think of those we’ve loved and lost – often missing them more than ever in the long stretches of the night. It’s a time when our heart can rule our head. Maybe it’s because we know the truth in what Helen Keller said, “The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart.”

What’s All This about Victorians and Valentine’s Day?

One of the things I love most about writing for Urn Garden is that I get to roam the Internet exploring topics of interest to me – and (hopefully) to you, our readers. Today, Victorian Valentines caught and held my interest – after all, it was the Victorians who turned the long-celebrated holiday into one resembling our own. If you’re curious too, check out: “Valentine’s Day in the Victorian Era” and “History of St. Valentine’s Day in the 1800s”. Here’s another article, with a different ‘spin’ on the subject: “14 Really Bizarre Vintage Valentine’s Day Cards”. Enjoy!

Heart and Soul Keepsake Urns for Ashes

August 15, 2017 Kim Stacey

heart urns for ashes

Just last week, I heard Floyd Cramer’s version of “Heart and Soul” for the first time in years. The timing was perfect: I had been sitting at my desk thinking about how popular heart urns and heart keepsake urns are today. But, I stopped what I was doing, listened, and remembered a time from my early childhood.

I was probably about six or seven years old and at a neighbor’s house on a summer afternoon. Her name was ‘Mrs. Murphy’, and she’d take care of kids on the block when our moms had errands. She had a piano in her living room and I used to spend hours sitting on that uncomfortable piano bench, plinking out the tune with one finger, singing along:

“Heart and soul, I fell in love with you,
Heart and soul, the way a fool would do,
Madly…” (Source)

It was a lot of fun then, and a whole lot of fun to remember now. So much so that I had to do a bit of Internet research on the song, before getting back to heart keepsake urns.

Just a Little More about ‘Heart and Soul’

The song was originally composed years before I was born; way back in 1938, by Hoagy Carmichael and Frank Loesser. Since then it’s been redone by lots of folks: Floyd Cramer, the Cleftones, and Jan and Dean. Most recently it was the inspiration for the delightfully upbeat song from 2016, “Play that Song” by Train.

Talk about a leaving a legacy!

Now, Let’s Get Back to Heart Urns

As I was saying our collection of heart urns is very popular. After all, a heart is the universal symbol of love. Here are just a few of our most popular heart urns.

The first, the American-made Two Hearts as One is a companion urn, in that it holds the ashes of two adults. Hand-crafted in two pieces from solid bronze, each heart is an individual urn joined together. It’s truly a stunning tribute and takes my breath away every time I see it.

The next three heart urns are tiny treasures, each measuring about 3 inches in length and width. These heart keepsake urns are made of metal and will hold a small amount of ashes, a lock of hair or other memento to someone loved with all your heart and soul. Each comes with its own display stand, and case.
