Build Your Own Coffins!
There is a club that lets seniors build their own coffins! Most people are afraid of death. But members New Zealand’s Kiwi Coffin Club are facing it head on. Founded by Katie Williams, a former midwife and hospice nurse, members build and then decorate their own customized coffins as a way of celebrating their lives and highlighting their unique personalities. Beyond the coffin building itself, the club has built a strong, supportive community where people can have frank conversations and reflect on their future with Members think this healthier approach to death can help other people who might otherwise be lonely or afraid at the end of their lives.

Great and productive idea. Most JR colleges have wood shop courses which is a perfect place for seniors that do not have access to tools or instruction.

That is the most BRILLIANT thing I have seen ever. What a wonderful idea, it is just fantastic. I loved the Chicken lady and her coffin, brilliant. The coffins from funeral directors are over priced and no where near as personal as these. I love this video, it is just brilliant. Thank you so much for sharing. God Bless.
