What’s the best way to make any day a celebration? Mark it with a personalized custom engraved plaque you design yourself at PlaqueMaker.com.

Tracing your family tree is not only fun, it can turn up some exciting surprises. What if you have a Duke, Duchess or even a Queen in your lineage – how cool would that be? All your research efforts could also reveal a family crest or coat of arms. Displaying your family crest is a unique way to pay tribute to your heritage or, dare we say, to show off your ancestral roots. Giving the gift of a family crest or coats of arms custom engraved or full-folor printed on ornaments, picture frames or paperweights to relatives at your next reunion would probably be a much appreciated memento, too.

A memorial provides the next best thing: something to hold that helps you remember precious moments with a treasured person.
