I wonder if any entrepreneur has yet used the cremation ashes mingled in plaster, to sculpt a bust of the deceased loved one? Or fashion a garden bench???

Some artists are already using that residual material to make personal jewelry for the bereaved.

Down here there are artists who put the ashes in glass and there is a service that mixes them in concrete to make wiffleball-looking artificial reef structures

You can incorporate ashes into a glass sculpture

I’m reminded of the ancient Egyptian undertakers putting several animals into a single animal mummy.

For $5,000, the Neptune Society will mix one's ashes with concrete, and put that "sculpture" in a "garden" below 30 feet of Atlantic Ocean. The "sculpture" designs aren't particularly inspiring.

There haven't been too many taking the Neptune Society's "Neptune" offer, so they'll just take over with a usual cremation from the moment of one's death. (That is, if they're made aware of it). No refunds, I guess...
