Designing a Flat Cemetery Marker
Where do you start when trying to design a “flat marker?" Well, although the choices are more limited than designing an upright headstone, there are still many options. The majority of the ones you will see in cemeteries are going to be the traditional shades of grays, pinks, and browns usually with flowers, or religious symbols on them. Your ideas can easily be “mixed and matched” to fit your budget. But think about this: maybe instead of traditional, go modern! With today’s technology , you can take any photo you have and have it “etched” onto a beautiful piece of polished black granite. Etched markers have become the most popular because they can be personalized by adding portraits, scenery, hobbies, careers, insignias etc. Very few monument shops own laser etchers, however, HeadstoneHub does. This allows us to sit down with you to help you create the perfect marker. Can’t decide on one favorite photo? Bring in a bunch of them, and design a collage! This can show the many phases of your loved ones life, and bring back many wonderful memories each time you visit their grave. Something different, something great.
