Has anyone ever turned their loved one into a diamond?

Human ashes can be converted into glass or diamonds, too. The ashes are converted to glass using glass blowing techniques by fusing a small portion of cremated remains along with molten glass.
Similarly, the ashes or even hair of the deceased can be used to create memorial diamonds that are often known as synthetic, cultured or laboratory-grown diamonds.

This method is gaining popularity in the US, UK, Switzerland, Netherlands, and various other countries as it is a unique and timeless way to memorialize a loved one. The process makes use of the carbon obtained from the cremated remains in a particulate or gaseous form.

I'd rather just bury them and get it over with, honestly. I don't need to turn them into a piece of jewelry to remember them.

I made my mother in law into glass, but she was just a pane.

Saw an ad for dildos that can hold ashes for widows.

I don't want to be buried, and neither does my wife or most people I know. Seems like the idea of cemeteries is out dated to me. I'd rather just be cremated.

Maybe I'm in the minority on that.

On a porn website.

Some of the dildos came in the shape of a crucifix, and had a place on the handle where you could keep a wallet size picture and name.

that's becoming more what I think I'll have done, I don't get the whole keeping the ashes/ making pendants, etc. out of them

The tagline was, "even though you were cremated, you can still get buried".

You know, about 70 years ago the Germans had gotten pretty good at making decorative items out of human beings. Didn't catch on then. But I wouldn't necessarily call those people "loved ones".

You need to propose to someone with a pubic hair ring. Except don’t tell her it’s made with your pubes til you’re going through the divorce. You win.
