My sister had the idea, get one of those and everyone gets to paint something on it as a goodbye gesture .
I really like that idea.... have a fire in the garden get everyone round for a drink and sling me and my painted box on it.

prob needs more tweeking but i think you have something with that idea I really do
Cardboard Coffins are quite the thing. I am not an expert like Dia, but I have been doing some research recently. Not that I expect to die imminently, but I am considering making some art work around the themes of death and renewal (oooh ark at me) and I wanted to make sure I knew how to make a traditional coffin before I began.

Cardboard Coffins in a nutshell are crap, cremation is not Eco friendlily , large amount's of gas and
electric, tradition wooden coffins are best a lot safer, remember most coffins are MDF , chipboard,
with a thin wood vanear. very rare you have a sold wood coffin.
This box is going to be burnt, remember it's bit like mutern dressed as lamb nothing fancy don't over
pay.
