Power of Pesonalization: A Pair of Hofner Basses



custom art hofner electric bass urn

We were contacted prior to Larry's passing. He was a bass player and his most prized possession was his Hofner electric bass. The instrument of choice for Paul McCartney.
His wife shared with us that the night of his passing, a family member stepped outside and found the sky to be a shade of purple...his favorite color. The sky stayed that color for a half hour and comforted his family in that moment.
His wife and son both got tattoos with three flying purple birds, wrapped in an infinity with the words, "Let it be." Three purple birds, a "Let it be" song lyric, and his signature were all engraved on his two unique memorial pieces....one electric bass urn for his wife and one for his son.
We were touched by the sweet story his wife shared, and embraced the challenge of creating these two detailed pieces inspired by his beautiful Hofner bass. We're always honored to create special tributes, like these, to remember loved ones uniquely. Best wishes and prayers for their healing and comfort in the days ahead.

Power of Personalization: Tulip Bouquet for Aunt Gennie

Virginia "Gennie" Ruth Stegall

May 1, 1945September 14, 2019 

With heavy hearts, we created a tulip bouquet urn for our sweet Aunt Gennie. 

She was an Earth Angel who bravely fought Parkinson's for over 25 years... without complaint, without self pity, without a harsh word spoken. She grew beautiful gardens and amazing children. 

We'll miss her humble nature, her sweet giggle, her kind heart and beautiful soul. Virginia Ruth you truly are one of God's most precious.

Pre-need and a Work of Art...Cheers to another 40 years!


Upon ordering a Winged-Heart YURN, "Fierce Robin" wrote:

Pre-need, preparing for cremation urn



It isn't too often that we get an order for pre-need arrangements... so, it was a different kind of experience to connect with Robin regarding her memorial artwork...rather than a mournful event.

She had come across our YURN listing previously.... So, with an approaching heart surgery and the encouragement of her daughter, she decided to go ahead and purchase the urn she wanted for herself. And, Lord willing, she would would be able to enjoy the piece as a work of art in her home, for many years, until the time comes to utilize it as a functional cremation urn.

We love the thoughtfulness she put into her decision, for her daughter and her outlook regarding our "art".  It's so touching to know that our art brings value and comfort to those grieving, and also to those who can enjoy them as artful home decor, prior to needing them for their intended purpose.

We enjoyed getting to know more about Robin through this experience.  Her career in healthcare and God-centered passion for helping others, her love of traveling, and her overall fun personality and zeal for life.

While working on her piece, we were surprised to wake one morning to read the sweetest five-star review on our Etsy store.....we hadn't even completed or shipped her memorial yet, and still she gave us a glowing review!  How awesome!

We received postitive review before the item was completed.

We completed Robin's Heart sculpture and she received it prior to her surgery.

Memorial Art to enjoy in home

We are happy to follow-up on the status of Robin's open-heart surgery...

She pulled through it like a champ!  Now, she'll heal and prepare herself for a vacation to St. Lucia in April.  :)

Live it up! With love! ~

Power of Personalization: Stock Car for The Margarita Lady


We were honored again to create a custom piece for the Flickinger Family.  This piece makes the third urn they've asked us to make.  We were touched that they entrusted us to help them memorialize Mom this time.

Wanda loved dirt track, stock car racing. A long time fan, she was known as "The Margarita Lady" to her racing friends, and had expressed that wanting a stock car urn when it came her time. We based the design from pictures sent of a Modified race car of her favorite driver, Wendell Wallace's #88 of Batesville, AR.


We hand delivered this piece to her family, who were happy with how the piece turned out and how perfect it was for Wanda.
