Alternatives to mass-produced, impersonal products 2 Months ago  
I appreciate the lively discussions on the FCA forum. I was happy to see the beginning of a discussion on artist-made cremation urns recently.I'd like to introduce myself and my company, Shine On Brightly. We are an online memorial art company, which features artist-made cremation urns, memorial jewelry, handmade books, memorial paintings, poetry, glass, and more. You can view the collection at www.shineonbrightly.com.

Shine On Brightly offers alternatives to the mass-produced, impersonal products that are prevalent in the funeral industry market. We emphasize handmade, non-outsourced, well-priced memorials, and exceptionally personally customer service. i launched the business in April 2008, and then lost my husband 7 weeks ago. I tell you that because I fully understand the emotional challenges involved with these purchases, and have great compassion for my clients. I feel that the people you serve have many of the same characteristics as my clients, in that they are seeking a more meaningful approach to end-of-life issues.

I'm currently seeking venues for letting people know that this option is available to them. If you or your consitutents like what you see, I greatly appreciate website links or referrals of any kind. I'd love to hear your feedback. I hope to hear from many of you soon.

Thank you so much.
