i have thought about promoting funeral work through a window but have always been a little reluctant in the past. But, now i find others are doing it i may well do, what else would you do? Grave pots and accessories???

Personally I think RIP is morbid.... I hate it when the customer wants to have that as a message.

Letters A B C speak for themselves... and you dont upset anyone....

I think "I (HEART) U" is really nice. I think "RIP" is really creepy!

the "U" is very in...it's like text language.

l8r!

I think as its easter, it has to be a lovely textured large cross...... , many people would find that comforting. I would use willow down the cross frame , bind on with deco wire and a couple of nice stems of orchids down thro centre !!, also little moss etc. very springy, very eastery and very tasteful... ooooohhh my creative juices are flowing !!!

I'm sure your window will look tasteful,"I(heart)U" could'nt offend anyone,but if you were already doing a massed/loose heart in your display,i would perhaps be tempted to go for" LUV U" as the lettered tribute.....
Best of luck with whatever you decide.
