Free Memorial Shadow Box Maker: See Their Name Before You Buy Anything

Free memorial shadow box maker

If you are here, you already know you want a memorial shadow box. What you do not know yet is whether it will look like them. That is the whole difficulty, and it is not a technical problem, so a technical answer does not help.

So try it first, for nothing. Our free memorial maker runs entirely in your browser: type their name, add the years if you want them, pick a motif and a colourway, and the design updates as you type. Nothing is uploaded, no account is created, nothing is emailed.

How to use it

Type the name in the first box. Add the dates in the second, or leave it empty. The line under the name is editable too, so you can have nothing there at all, or the dates alone, or a line you have been carrying around for weeks and cannot find words for.

Pick the motif that is theirs, not the one you think is prettiest. A paw for a dog. A leaf if they were the outdoors one. Waves if they loved the sea. A candle if you are not sure yet what you are making.

Then download it

The download button gives you a free flattened SVG: a single file, good for printing, for a phone wallpaper, for showing someone before they are ready. It is not a cut file, because it is not separated into layers.

Send the design itself, not a screenshot

There is a Copy link button. It copies a link that carries your design, so the person you send it to opens the keepsake with their person's name on it, already made.

Worth knowing: that name travels inside the part of a web address that browsers never send to a website, and that search engines never index. So the name of the one you lost is not on our server, is not in a crawl log, and is not going to turn up in a search for you one day. Only the person you sent it to can see it.

What the paid version actually is

Same design, cut into seven separate layer files, one per sheet of cardstock, plus a 6500px print render and a materials list. You cut them, stack them with foam tape, and the gaps become depth. The name goes on the front layer as text you can edit before cutting, so it is their name and not a font choice we made for you.

If cutting it yourself is the part you dread

Then do not. Pay someone who does this, or give the free preview to someone who does. Either way the maker output tells them exactly what to make, which is more than a photograph ever would.
