Pet loss is something everyone has experienced. Their lives are shorter and only borrowed to us for a given time. When their time is up, off to Rainbow Bridge they go where they are restored to live life fully waiting to meet us again at Rainbow Bridge.

Rainbow Bridge Poem

Among The Sea Of Hostas

In my back garden among the sea of hostas is where my beloved pets and my mom’s are buried. Last year I got an idea to make a ‘Rainbow Bridge’ to put back there. How I was going to portray it to be a ‘Rainbow Bridge’ was another story. I did not want to spend money buying all the colors of the rainbow in paint. I built the bridge and will show you how I did it in another post that I am working on.

Then The Idea Came…

I would make a sign that said ‘Rainbow Bridge’. How I would do it without putting too much expense into it was another story.

I had this garden stake that has fabric on it in a square. Whatever was painted on it had faded. I saw that and thought this is what I was going to use for my sign.

I also inherited some fabric paint. It is old and I had to go through them to find out which ones I could use to make a rainbow. It was a challenge as many of the fabric paints were dried out.

There were also some jewels of various colors I decided to throw in as well. The following is a picture of the finished sign. It sort of looks like a 10 year old made it but I think that is where the charm is in it because of the purpose the sign is to portray. It is a rainbow where all our beloved pets use to cross ‘Rainbow Bridge’ to wait to meet up with us again.
