Home décor

Home decor gifts make great gifts because they can add nice touches to the home. Some items can even be customized. Unique ways to display memorial pictures in nice frames is always a nice idea. There are 3D frames as well as shadowbox-style frames where you can keep your pet’s collar as a keepsake inside.

Planting a tree or growing a plant is another creative way to honor your pet. By honoring your pet through starting a new life in growing plants is a nice symbolic way to continue the cycle of life. Just like life, energy continues to flow and evolve. Plants do as well. It’s a unique way to keep the memory of your pet alive.

Lastly, home decor touches like comforters and quilts are old-fashioned ways to incorporate creativity and sentimental memories in a warm cozy blanket. These gift ideas are perfect for the colder months or any time you want to envelope yourself with memories of what your pet meant to you. A custom-designed pet memorial blanket makes for a thoughtful gift idea.

I love all these unique home decor ideas.

Outdoor

Having a memorial for your pet does not have to be limited to the interior of your home. Adding nice touches outside and around your home is welcome. For those that choose to keep their pet’s remains buried at home, consider a lovely memorial stone for your pet’s final resting place. Amazon even has solar-lighted markers as well.

Consider wind chimes on your porch if you prefer something unique. Every time the wind blows, and you hear the chimes, you’ll be reminded of your pet’s love and spirit in the air.

Candles

Candles are a great added touch of elegance inside the home. I love scented candles and sentimental ones as well. Pet memorial candles come in many different colors, styles, and designs. I’m a fan of Pet Perennials healing hearts candle. I wrote about my personal experience in a prior blog post you can read here. From incorporating healing crystals and colorful designs, there is something suited for everyone. Amazon even has toxic-free candles available as well.

Here is just a sample of candles for gift ideas.

Books

I recently wrote a post 7 books I recommend to find comfort after pet loss. Sometimes, reading self-help books or learning about the process of mourning a beloved pet from other pet parents can provide you with validation and tools to find healing. This is invaluable during such a difficult time. Here are just a few books that are Amazon picks.

Losing My Best Friend: Thoughtful support for those affected by dog bereavement or pet loss – Paperback

Soul Comfort for Cat Lovers: Coping Wisdom for Heart and Soul After the Loss of a Beloved Feline – Paperback

Jewelry

Another unique personalized way to honor your pet is through personalized jewelry. I’m not one for wearing jewelry daily however when my cat Dusty passed away, I delighted in a gift my husband bought for me. It was a custom gold locket necklace personalized with Dusty’s picture inside. I wore it daily for a long time and gave me such comfort. It was such a thoughtful gift I’ll cherish always.

Luckily, Amazon has many personalized jewelry options available for the most simple or more elegant tastes. You can find remembrance jewelry necklaces, bracelets, rings, and more. Below is just a small sample of jewelry selections to memorialize a beloved pet that has passed.

Custom pillows

Lastly, my final suggestion for gift ideas this holiday season is a custom portrait pet pillow. I wrote a blog post about my experience with PuppyYou.com and received a custom pet pillow with Dusty’s image on it. I love, love, love it. Call me crazy but I even jokingly talk to “Dusty” here and there. She’s always watching our silly antics at home.

This is another way to memorialize your pet in a fun way. And an extra bonus, you can hug your pillow. No, it’s not the same as the real thing however seeing them in their image always makes your heart smile.
