Photos

After a loved one dies, it's always a good idea to spend some time busying yourself so that you are not so focused on the loss that you are experiencing. While grief will never completely go away, there are some things that you can do to help alleviate some of the symptoms brought on by grief and bring you a little peace. One way that a lot of people find a sense of peace after a loss is by creating a memorial space somewhere within their home. If you are interested in creating a memorial space for yourself, then the first thing that you will need is some photos of your loved one. We recommend spending some time looking for some photos of your loved one that you may have within your home. It could also be a good idea to ask family and friends for any photos that they may have as well. If this is an activity that you feel as though you will need some emotional support through, then we recommend inviting your family and friends over to your home to help you sort through the photos together. After you have selected the photos that you would like to display in your memorial, then it is time to shop for frames for all of the photos. While you can usually buy frames in any store, we recommend going online as there are more options for customization. 

The Space

Once you have all of the photographs of your loved one selected, it is then time to look for a space within your home that you would like to use for your memorial. While most people typically go with creating their memorial space in their living room, you can choose anywhere that you wish. We recommend selecting a space that visitors see when they walk in as this will be a great way to keep the memory of your loved one alive while also starting conversation. Additionally, if you are to include candles around your memorial space, then it is important to be sure that these will not be easily overlooked by visitors. 

Decorations

The last thing that you have to do for your memorial space is choose decorations to lighten up the area. We recommend things like candles, souvenirs, keepsakes, tickets, or anything else meaningful.
