Ashes jewellery/Scattering - how do you feel about it?

[Dipsydoodlenoodle]

As the title says really. How do you feel about it?

I recently (unfortunately) came in possession of some ashes, people asked if I was going to put some into jewellery - which got me thinking...

If people scatter their Ashes in different places (a friend did this for each holiday as their parent wanted to travel), are you not worried that you've scatterd a leg here, an arm there, a nipple there etc.

As for jewellery, what if your beautiful piece of jewellery displays a bumhole?

I mean, I know I'm being ridiculous and I've always thought the jewellery was nice until I became in possession of Ashes.

My dad has requested he's scattered when he goes, so with his wish, I'll do that, but to me it just feels odd that he won't be all together.

What are your thoughts?

I would do whatever the person wants, it doesn't have to make sense to me

Ashes into diamonds.

Picture isn't great, it's just a bit smaller than a 20p coin. And it's in glass apparently, not resin x

Beautiful

Can I ask where you had your rings made they are lovely and very much something I'd like for my mums ashes.

Thank you. The company is called Angels Meadow and they have lots of styles and colours. I’d say mine was one of the smaller designs.

Hope you find what you’re looking for.

First of all getting diamonds from ashes is hellishly expensive. We're going to recce a place for my in-laws ashes this weekend.

It took ages to decide where to scatter them. We've narrowed it down to Cornwall as that's where the holidayed with DH when he was a child and where they took the DCs when they were young.

Thank you everyone for the insightful posts. It's really been interesting seeing everyone's opinions on the matter.

I’ve never liked the idea of different places. I’m planning to have my DPs - who passed away in their 90s within 15 months of each other - interred at a local cemetery

My dad has most of my mum's ashes next to the television. He sent me some in the post for me to scatter. My "share" was in a cupboard for nearly a year before I finally took her to the seaside for a final grand day out...... just watch the breeze when you scatter them. I also sent a memorial necklace to my cousin in America but it has a very small amount of ashes in it.

Your atoms return to the universe when you die. Whether you are buried or cremated, given enough time, you are scattered.

Every interaction you have throughout your lifetime is your body interacting with the various particles in the universe. Even as you sit here reading this, your brain waves are emitting energy that is entering the room and scattering. Skin cells are falling off of you. You will consume food, breathe in air, some of which your body will incorporate into itself.

we are never truly one static body.

Same for my family. The Catechism states we should be buried. If you are cremated, your ashes should be buried in a sacred place.

If DH does before me his ashes will be made into a diamond to go around my neck. I've seen a diamond made from ashes and it looks just like a normal diamond. Nothing grusome about it if it brings comfort.
