does anyone know where I might be able to get a couple memory boxes. there is a coouple of girls in my community that have lost children just recently.one was 3 yrs old got hit by a car she has a few things to remember her by but nothing to put them in. We also dont have a photographer in our community area for NILMDTS so the family took their own pics.Then the other is a lady who lost her 6 month old do to SMA.So if anyone knows where I might be able to find a couple to give to this girls please let me know.
Thank you

Becky,
What style are you looking for...? For example, the one that I have Cameron's ashes in, I basically made myself. It is simply a wooden box that I picked up at the Dollar Store, and I painted and decorated it myself - Or do you have a style in mind? I also sell Avon and will be ordering one for Cameron with my next order. I will try to find the link to the item and send you an image.

Becky,
It is so nice you are thinking of these mom's. I don't know what city/state you live in but here are a few suggestions for memory boxes:
HAIN-Heavenly Angels In Need, you can have the parents go to the link and click on the Memory Box Division to request a memory box. NILMDTS works closely with HAIN and we are so blessed by their volunteers.

Memory boxes can be easily made. Some of the party stores even have pretty decorated hat boxes, craft stores like Michaels have them along with embelishments you can add to or paint them with. Any size or shape will work.

Thank you for this website as I am looking for something similar and could not find anything but a website that makes really expensive ones you can buy.
