Sand Ceremony anyone????

Yolie1098

We are planning on doing the sand ceremony and I would love to have the "Forever Frame" but truly hating to pay the price.  Is anyone else doing the sand ceremony and what are you using?  The "Forever Frame" below does not mix the sand, which is great but $75....am I being too cheap.....

FI and I finally decided on below. But it is currently out of stock everywhere I look, so I guess I have to wait until July to get it.

@rowenac82 - That's beautiful! Worth the wait IMO.

Rowena, that's really beautiful...

Honestly, I was planning on doing the sand ceremony and looking for what I have here to use for the containers... I wasn't planning on keeping the sand afterwards at all but rather just having the symbolism during the ceremony.

I saw that but the sand mixes up when moved and I wanted something where it stayed separate (in its place).

See if someone else carries it?? I would love something that kept the sand separate...

This is beautiful I might have to borrow this idea! I have been on such a search for containers with a lid so it wouldn't spill in transport but everything I have seen is like $65. I might even go the DIY route like @TCJames- thanks for the link that was very helpful as well!
