Are handmade urns a great bet for a biodegradable urn?

Asked 3 years ago

My brother loved the outdoors and spent the majority of his adult life working to protect the environment. He wanted to be cremated, and I'm considering getting him a simple urn to bring him closer to nature. I'd like to use a handmade urn for this, but I'm not sure if that's the best option.

Your brother sounds like a wonderful person! An urn made from paper mache is an eco-friendly way to lay your brother's ashes to rest. It is inexpensive, fairly simple to make, and can be morphed into any shape and size you want to create.
