What are Memorial Slates?
Memorial Slate Plaques allow you to display a loved one’s photograph and their name on a stone slate. The entire plaque is customized and chiseled by nature, so each of these memorial slates is unique. Depending on your design needs, there are many ways to customize these to commemorate your special loved one. For example, if you want to include more information about your loved one or add an epitaph or poem in addition to their photograph and name, you can do that as well. These memorials make excellent displays for family rooms or offices in addition to being meaningful gifts for friends and family members who miss a lost loved one. They also make impressive memorials in honor of someone who passed away since they come custom-crafted from solid stone in America.
What Are Common Background Options?
Standard background options include clouds, sports, nature, religion, earth. If you are looking for something unique or extra special for your loved one’s memorial slate, consider adding birthstones or colors. Sometimes people will choose to do a collage of images around their loved one’s name. Your imagination is your only limit when it comes to creating a beautiful piece of art with photos and symbols of importance to your loved one’s life.
