Urns, Urns, and more Urns! All different sizes, shapes, wood, brass, glass, metal, you get the picture with cremation being as prevalent, we are inendated with companies that sell them.  When we help families choose an urn for their loved one, we often try and keep the choices some what limited as it can be overwhelming to people who are grieving.  If they are looking for more of a choice, of course we have 10 plus catalogs that we can provide as well.  Sometimes not even an urn is chosen, we have had cookie jars, ceramic pots, families have even made their own.  I did run across a company called Urns.com, yes you can buy urns on the internet.  www.urns.com has a nice variety and a lot of choices, they also have a great blog, http://blog.urns.com/ where they have a wealth of information about cremation, advanced funeral planning, anything related to our industry.  Whether from our catalog, the internet, or perhaps something from home, the most important detail, is that it has significance to the family we are helping.
