Hummingbird Urns

Memorialize Your Loved One with a Playful Hummingbird Urn

Brightly colored and mesmerizing, the tiny but eye-catching hummingbird has long captured our imaginations. Known for their playful spirits and special qualities in flight, hummingbirds carry a sense of energy and vibrancy with them wherever they fly. If your lost loved one had a bright, energetic spirit, perhaps the best way to memorialize them is with a playful hummingbird urn.

Bright and Colorful

Though hummingbirds are small, their bright coloring means they nearly always catch the eye.

Hummingbirds are some of the most brightly-colored things in the entire world. Their feathers are iridescent -- light bounces off them like a soap bubble, resulting in shimmering hues that shift as you look at them from different angles. While other birds like ducks can have bright feathers, nothing seems to come close to hummingbirds. (Field Museum)

Due to their bright and beautiful coloring, hummingbirds are nearly unmissable despite their tiny stature. This serves as a wonderful reminder that size and stature have little to do with why certain animals, objects, and even people command our attention. If your loved one carried about them an unmissable spirit, perhaps they would be best memorialized with a playful hummingbird urn. 

Small But Mighty

Hummingbirds are truly tiny; in fact, the average hummingbird weighs less than three grams. What they lack in size, however, they more than make up for in strength and endurance. In fact, though hummingbirds are the world's smallest migratory birds, they are known to travel up to five hundred miles at a time!

If "small but mighty" could accurately describe your now-departed friend, family member, or loved one, the playful hummingbird urn could be the perfect choice for their final resting place.

Defying Physics

Nearly all flighted birds operate in the same way. The hummingbird, however, is an exception. Known as nature's "acrobats," hummingbirds move through the air in ways separate and distinct from other birds. At times, they even seem to defy physics. They can fly forwards, backward, sideways, and straight up! Hummingbirds can also hover in mid-air for long periods of time, all the while making their motion look effortless. 

Every so often in this life, we meet people who remind us of hummingbirds. They move and behave differently, seeming to operate on another level from everyone else. Through it all, they possess boundless energy to get things done. If that describes your loved one, a playful hummingbird urn could be the perfect choice for their memorial. 

Joy and Happiness

Because of their freedom and flexibility, hummingbirds have long been cherished as a symbol of joy and happiness. There is a reason why people choose them for tattoos, cherish them as spirit animals, and enjoy artwork and jewelry featuring hummingbirds. In this playful bird, they recognize that power, energy, and vibrancy can come wrapped in a tiny, elegant, and colorful package.

Hummingbirds serve as a reminder that size and stature aren't all that matter. Both in the animal kingdom and in human society, we admire not just strength but also grace and beauty. To memorialize your friend, family member, or loved one in a way that acknowledges this dynamic, choose a playful hummingbird urn.  

Grief and Remembrance

Losing a friend, family member, or cherished loved one can spark deep grief that words cannot adequately express. Though we know what we feel, we find it impossible to talk about. This is a totally normal grief response, and when this happens, we can turn to symbols to help us communicate the intangible qualities that made our loved ones truly special. With a playful hummingbird urn, you will be able to remember the power, grace, and beauty that make your dearly departed truly unforgettable.
