You want to try and honor the deceased in the best way possible, but you are also most likely trying to balance design, price, material, and a host of other factors. Rather than get stressed out, use these tips to help you <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.neflfuneral.com\/what-are-outdoor-cremation-urns\/\">find the perfect cremation urn<\/a>.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What Would the Deceased Want?<\/strong> \u2013 Not everyone will have a specific plan laid out for after their death, but be sure to do exactly what your lost loved one laid out if he or she did so. If there is no plan in place, use your best judgement as to what he or she would have wanted. Was your loved one big on eco-friendly living? If so, you can look into purchasing an\u202feco-friendly urn\u202fto honor their name in. Did your loved one spend most of their time working in the garden? If so, consider purchasing a\u202fgarden memorial urn.<\/li>\n<li><strong>How Will the Urn Be Used?<\/strong> \u2013 There are different kinds of urns for different uses. For example, if you\u2019re going to scatter the ashes, you can get a scattering urn. Or if you are going to cast the ashes from an airplane, you need a special airline safe urn. If the urn is going to be displayed outside, you need to be sure you get an outdoor safe urn.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-234 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.neflfuneral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/cremation-service-in-Jacksonville-FL-300x263.jpg\" alt=\"cremation service in Jacksonville, FL\" width=\"300\" height=\"263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.neflfuneral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/cremation-service-in-Jacksonville-FL-300x263.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.neflfuneral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/cremation-service-in-Jacksonville-FL-167x146.jpg 167w, https:\/\/blog.neflfuneral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/cremation-service-in-Jacksonville-FL-50x44.jpg 50w, https:\/\/blog.neflfuneral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/cremation-service-in-Jacksonville-FL-86x75.jpg 86w, https:\/\/blog.neflfuneral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/cremation-service-in-Jacksonville-FL.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Size is Important<\/strong> \u2013 Urn size varies, and you should consider size when shopping for an urn. If you\u2019re going to display the urn, it should be able to fit in the place in which you want to display it. For example, if you want to place the urn on your fireplace mantle you need to be sure the base of the urn is the right size to fit on the mantle space. Larger urns work better when placed safely on the ground, so make sure you have a designated area for it if you decide to go with a larger one.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Urn Art is an Option<\/strong> \u2013 Urns can be made as beautiful as any piece or art, and they can range in style from painted and colored to specially molded and shaped. Art urns are also ideal for display, as they lend a unique and personalized air to the memorial.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Think About Material<\/strong> &#8211; There are wooden urns, metal urns, crystal and glass urns, natural stone urns, and much more. You can narrow down your options by considering what material your loved one would value the most, and what material works with what you want the urn to do. For example, an outdoor or buried urn needs to be a different material than an indoor display urn.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your loved one\u2019s urn should be just as unique as your loved one, so be sure to take his or her unique preferences, qualities, and interests into consideration. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neflfuneral.com\/about-us\/\">If you need more help<\/a> choosing an urn for after a Jacksonville, FL <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neflfuneral.com\/our-services\/cremation-services\">cremation service<\/a>, reach out to Schnauss North East Florida Funeral Home and Cremation Services by giving us a call or paying us a visit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Finding the perfect cremation urn after a loved one\u2019s cremation service in Jacksonville, FL can be very overwhelming.
