Bereavement Blessings

I have had an opportunity to make some bereavement plaques for BelAir Florist in Versailles, KY. The following are examples of the 7x7 plaques. Poems for these plaques:


Because We Love You
Peace
Grief's Prayer
Strength for Today
Sweet Memories
A Prayer for You


I can also include "In Memory of..." to personalize these plaques if desired.




The following are examples of the 5x5 plaques. Poems available for this size include both religious and sweet sentiment plaques for mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, sister, brother, friend. (At present I am working on poems for husband, wife, son, daughter as well.)





Wholesale cost for these plaques: $10 for 7x7; $7 for 5x5 plus shipping and KY sales tax. (KY re-sellers that provide their exempt forms will not be charged sales tax.)


*Plaques can be made in colors of choice.

The Crafting Process...

1. I buy my plaques in various sizes...

2. I choose the color of paint I want for a particular prayer poem and apply two to three coats on front and back...

3. I print prayer on cardstock of choice according to plaque size, and cut using a template I've created for each size...

4. I then adhere the cardstock to the plaque using a quality craft adhesive...and apply 2 coats over the cardstock to seal it...

5. I then apply a coat of durable clear gloss crafting varnish to the front and back, and place an alligator hook on the back so that it comes ready to hang. (Or plaques can be displayed on a stand alone easel.)

Each plaque is individually hand crafted in this fashion. Contact me if you have a special request. (See ordering/contact info post.)
