What a Memorial Shadow Box Holds
There is no single right way to build a memory display. These are the groupings families return to most often.
Personal keepsakes
A favorite photograph, a handwritten card, eyeglasses, a watch, or a piece of jewelry arranged together so the small details stay with the picture.
Military remembrance
Service medals, ribbons, insignia, unit patches, and a folded burial flag laid out to honor a veteran with the depth to hold each item securely.
A life's milestones
Pins, awards, a wedding photo, a christening gown detail, or travel mementos that tell the story of a person across the years.
Dimensional mementos
A folded scarf, a small bouquet kept from a service, a pair of baby shoes, or a cap that needs real interior depth to sit naturally inside the frame.

Solid wood frames with the interior depth to hold a meaningful grouping. Every frame is made to order in your exact size.

Room for the details

Your exact size

Memorial Shadow Box Questions
What is a memorial shadow box?
A memorial shadow box is a deep frame used to hold and display keepsakes that honor a loved one. Families use them for photographs, handwritten notes, jewelry, folded garments, service medals, and other remembrance items kept together behind framer's grade acrylic. The added interior depth lets dimensional keepsakes sit safely inside the frame rather than pressed flat.
How is a memory shadow box different from a regular frame?
A regular frame is built for flat artwork. A memory shadow box adds usable interior depth so three-dimensional keepsakes such as a folded scarf, a pin, a watch, or a small bouquet can be arranged inside. Our memorial shadow boxes range from 1.25 inches to 3.5 inches of usable depth, giving you room to lay out a meaningful grouping rather than a single photo.
Can I build a military memorial shadow box for medals and a folded flag?
Yes. The Military Frame tab is set up for service displays, including medals, ribbons, insignia, patches, and burial-flag presentations. You can lay out the arrangement in the designer and choose the depth needed to hold the items securely. For a folded flag combined with medals, a deeper profile gives the clearance to display both together.
What turnaround should I expect for a memorial shadow box?
Standard memorial and memory shadow boxes within our 32 by 40 inch size cap ship in 3-5 business days after you approve the design. If you are working toward a service date or an anniversary, design early so the piece arrives with time to spare.
