This funeral director gift ornament is shaped like a heart for a reason — the profession that cares for families in their hardest moments deserves something that acknowledges both the work and the person who does it.
“Funeral Director By Day, World’s Best Mom By Night.”
That quote is printed on a white heart-shaped MDF ornament with a high-gloss plastic finish and vibrant printed colors. A festive gold cord is included for hanging — no additional hardware required. At $16.95, it’s within most holiday gift exchange and stocking stuffer budgets.
Construction and Materials
The ornament is made from MDF (medium-density fiberboard) — a dense, sturdy composite that holds its shape and resists warping under typical indoor display conditions. The surface is coated with a high-gloss plastic finish that protects the printed design from scratching and moisture during display and storage.
The ornament is breaking-resistant — MDF construction is more impact-resistant than glass or ceramic ornaments. If knocked off a mantel or tree branch, it’s less likely to shatter than a traditional ornament, making it a practical choice for households with children or pets.
Shape and Display
The heart shape distinguishes this ornament from the standard star or round format. A white heart with high-gloss printing reads warmly in any holiday display — on a tree, hung in a window, placed on a mantel, or set on a desk year-round as a profession-specific piece.
The ornament includes a festive gold cord pre-attached for hanging. Suitable locations include:
- Christmas tree branches — standard hanging orientation
- Window frames or curtain rods — seasonal window display
- Desk or cubicle — year-round display in a funeral home or office
- Gift wrapping — as a decorative topper on a wrapped present
Who This Gift Is For
