Top 10 Funeral Favors

According to the MyWonderfulLife.com Members we've surveyed, most see their funeral as a sort of "last party." So the last thing they want their funeral to be is one big family nap, or an excuse to eat free stale sandwiches.

So how are people "livening up" their death? Funeral favors. Yes, favors aren't just for kids birthday parties anymore. In fact, they're a great way to customize your funeral and add a little fun. After all, it is supposed to be a life celebration, right?

Here are 10 of our Favorite Funeral Favors, courtesy of MyWonderfulLife.com surveyed Members:

Fortune Cookies
Fill these with funny or thoughtful quotes and fortunes. Our favorite: "You're Next."

Seed Packets
Pair these with a message like, "Life goes on," or "Life after death" to brighten the mood.

Shot Glasses
Are you Irish with a taste for whiskey? Then perhaps a group shot is in order at your funeral.

Custom Crosswords
Great fun for those who knew you best. 5 ACROSS: What was the name of my childhood pet? 6 letters, starts with "B"...

Recipe Books
Perfect for those family members and friends who never knew the recipe for your famous three-cheese lasagna.

Silhouette Cookies
Might sound weird, but cookies in your shape make a fantastic conversation piece.

Slideshow DVDs
Put pictures of your life together over a favorite song. A great way to sum up a wonderful life.

Custom Magnets
Put your picture on a fridge magnet, perhaps with a quote or funny saying. Our favorite: "I'll always be watching over you...and judging you by what you eat."

Angel Keepsakes
Angel pins or statuettes remind friend and family of their new "guardian angel."

Wristbands
Make a Live-Strong bracelet with a quote or funny saying. Use your favorite color.
