   This is so not morbid to me! I think what is morbid is the fact that coffins in this country are sterile, cold, and work on the grief and even guilt by people who charge thousands and thousands of dollars for them. I think it is awesome that people are putting together something that is beautiful and that has the chance of really representing something about the person at that part of their journey. And it looks like they are natural and will probably decompose. Wonderful! Thanks for putting this out there!

   I found these so inspirational and was delighted to be asked to take part. There are so many beautiful designs on their site already – what a wonderful (and unique) idea it is!
