Today, she and her brother, Steve,<br />run <a href="http://weddingringcoffin.com/">weddingringcoffin.com</a>, an online site that sells miniature caskets to display rings and symbolize a dead marriage.</p> <p><img alt="Engagement%20Ring%20Coffin.jpg" height="377" src="http://www.diamondvues.com/Engagement%20Ring%20Coffin.jpg" width="452" /><br /><br />The coffins are priced from $30 to $35, measure about 6 inches long and are made of solid wood with a dark mahogany finish and black velvet lining. A split lid allows for an open or closed casket. Also available are engraved brass plaques, with messages ranging from the hopeful — "Bury the past and move on" — to the cynical, "Six feet isn't deep enough!"</p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMt_OZ1V5-Yu24yeHhaLrhCo2hyphenhyphen_vnmnDweNHoHeDIhXO5IzWAH8QePSQwMlcl4UKYIZ8MgqVL7lMPjP2_NpBK8y_6jXkj0RrYPG0ICAjwJUcwQDVK-i6dKEmzwSUVKggf3zoCOJl7g2Ah/s1600-h/Picture+5.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5110900137563820658" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMt_OZ1V5-Yu24yeHhaLrhCo2hyphenhyphen_vnmnDweNHoHeDIhXO5IzWAH8QePSQwMlcl4UKYIZ8MgqVL7lMPjP2_NpBK8y_6jXkj0RrYPG0ICAjwJUcwQDVK-i6dKEmzwSUVKggf3zoCOJl7g2Ah/s400/Picture+5.png" style="cursor: pointer;" /></a><br />You can also provide your own message as one ex-husband did whose plaque read: "You should have learned to play golf."</p>via diamondvues.com
