Lime Green Coffin
At the time of our dad dying my sister and I were pretty broke. He wanted a cremation and we chose a cardboard coffin for the job. Cheap, eco friendly and delivered to your door in flat pack.

After assembling it looked rather manky - a great big grey cardboard coffin shaped box slap bang in the middle of my living room. I am not sure of what we were expecting but it was miserable. Searching the cupboards I found a tin of lime green color emulsion and a few coats of that paint worked a treat. It brightened up the coffin to an almost luminescent glow. Then to finish it off I scanned some of his artwork and glued A4 copies to the lid and sides.

And sorry dad I know you wanted to be cremated staring at your paintings of your ex girlfriend's flaps on the inside of the lid but we just could not bring ourselves to do it.

good on you
This will remain as a greater testament to your Da than some ugly monstrosity that you could well have paid a small fortune for.

I liked this a lot. But....
Am I the only person who's wondering how you might have found or acquired pics of your dads ex-girlfriends vagina?
Is this the ultimate POIDH request?

my dad's ex girlfriend's vagina...
Was the subject of many of his paintings and designs over the years - from pussy wallpaper, (why have one vagina when you can have hundreds on your wall) to A1 size paintings of her vulva which glowed under UV light.

The "problem" was finding enough decent non vagina pictures to copy and paste onto the coffin! We were sure that the residents of West Norwood would of been offended by the funeral procession if plastered his coffin with fanny. Most of his stuff is at my sisters and I think she has pics of the coffin. I will also see what I can find here.

Nicely done
Love the idea, it'll be remembered by those that saw it for years to come.
Not that I want them mind, but where are all the vag paintings now?
