Filling cremation jewelry is a simple task most people can complete at home. To begin, determine the type of opening on your ash pendant. If you see a top-threaded bale, simply unscrew the bale. A threaded-screw opening, on the other hand, will typically be found at the back or bottom of the cremation pendant. Open and close the threaded-screw opening with care to avoid damaging the threads. Filling the Cremation Jewelry Chamber: The most efficient way to fill cremation jewelry is to use a small funnel. First, check the box your memorial jewelry came in – many keepsake pendants ship with a small plastic funnel. If you don’t have a funnel on hand, you can create one by cutting 270 degrees of a circle from paper – your cut-out will look like ¾ of a pie. The fold then circles so the two open edges overlap, leaving a small opening at the bottom of the funnel. Work on a flat surface protected by newspaper or another covering. Place the narrow end of the funnel into the opening on your cremation jewelry’s chamber and use it to transfer ashes, some burial earth, crushed flowers, or a lock of hair into the chamber. If necessary, a small, thin object like a toothpick or open paperclip can help to guide the material through the neck of the funnel and into the chamber. Sealing Your Cremation Jewelry: Although your cremation jewelry comes with a threaded bale or threaded-screw opening, it is wise to seal the opening to ensure that the contents are secure. Non-water soluble glue is best suited for sealing your cremation jewelry. Some cremation jewelry pieces ship with permanent glue or you can use Krazy Glue or another permanent glue you have around the house. Sealing your cremation jewelry will not only secure the opening but also prevent moisture from entering and disturbing the contents. Simply apply a tiny portion of adhesive to the threads of the cremation jewelry (rather than the bale or threaded screw), and then twist the bale or threaded screw into place. If You Need Help Filling Your Cremation Jewelry: If you are uncomfortable filling your cremation jewelry yourself, or if have any difficulty, you may wish to seek assistance from a local jeweler or funeral director. Most will be happy to assist you at no charge or for a nominal fee. For more information regarding Cremation Jewelry and ash pendant , please visit www.cremationjewelry.com
