Building a Flat Grave Blanket: Materials & Steps

For a ground-covering grave blanket, avoid heavy wood frames. Instead, use three funereal saddles (caged foam blocks with stabilizing wings) to create a manageable, transportable system.

Materials List

• 3 funereal saddles with caged foam blocks
• Minimum 6 wholesale bunches of greens per section (evergreen boughs, gladiola leaves, lemon leaf)
• Minimum 3 wholesale bunches (24 stems) of flowers per section (optional; evergreen alone is lovely)
• Large bow for center accent (optional)

Construction

1. Arrange long, outward-reaching greens as an undercoat in each saddle.
2. Layer chosen flowers or additional greens on top.
3. Flowers can be swapped weekly to refresh the blanket.
4. Secure sections side-by-side at the gravesite.

This modular approach simplifies transport and allows seasonal updates.
