After his cremation we started looking for an urn, but it turned out to be difficult to find something that suited him and us. In the end we had a beautiful urn glass blown for some of the ashes. We decided to spread the rest at a later time.<\/p>\n<p>I am an industrial designer myself and I thought it would be nice to design a temporary stylish urn for the remainder of the ashes. I designed a simple, sleek object &#8211; a stylized candle, with personal elements.<\/p>\n<p>My mother, brother and sister thought the urn was so beautiful that we decided not to scatter the ashes at all, but to divide them among four of these identical urns.<\/p>\n<p>They became four personal, tangible memories that are very valuable to us as a family and formed the inspiration for the Waymood design urns.<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-613393\" style=\"height: 40px; clear: both; width:100%;\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section data-kc-equalheight=\"true\" data-kc-equalheight-align=\"middle\" id=\"ashouder\" class=\"kc-elm kc-css-504102 kc_row\"><div class=\"kc-row-container  kc-container\"><div class=\"kc-wrap-columns\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-587913 kc_col-sm-12 kc_column kc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"kc-col-container\"><div data-kc-equalheight=\"true\" data-kc-row-action=\"true\" data-kc-equalheight-align=\"middle\" class=\"kc-elm kc-css-478051 kc_row kc_row_inner\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-558701 kc_col-sm-6 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\">\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-93800 kc-title-wrap \">\n\n\t<h3 class=\"kc_title\">Ash container (urn)<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-745178 kc_text_block\"><\/p>\n<p>When I talk about the Waymood urns, people often react a bit hesitantly. Many people find the idea of an object filled with ashes of a deceased person a bit scary.<\/p>\n<p>That is why the urns from our <a href=\"\/en\/collection\/\">collection<\/a> do not have that typical urn shape. First and foremost, they are beautifully designed, personal memories, which can of course also be used to store ashes. That makes the urn even more personal and certainly not scary.<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-46480 kc_col-sm-6 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-885878 kc_shortcode kc_single_image\">\n\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/waymood.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/houten-design-urnen-ebbenhout-notenhout-dennenhout-1300x1300-1.jpg\" class=\"\" alt=\"Waymood design urnen in ebbenhout, notenhout en dennenhout\" \/>    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"kc-elm kc-css-507506 kc_row\"><div class=\"kc-row-container  kc-container\"><div class=\"kc-wrap-columns\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-274941 kc_col-sm-12 kc_column kc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"kc-col-container\">\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-727191\">\n\t<a class=\"kc_button general-btn btn btn-solid btn-uppercase btn-sm btn-oval btn-primary\" href=\"\/en\/collection\/\" target=\"_self\" title=\"Collection\" onclick=\"\">\n\t\tView collection\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section data-kc-equalheight=\"true\" data-kc-equalheight-align=\"middle\" id=\"keepsake\" class=\"kc-elm kc-css-223162 kc_row\"><div class=\"kc-row-container  kc-container\"><div class=\"kc-wrap-columns\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-156820 kc_col-sm-12 kc_column kc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"kc-col-container\"><div data-kc-equalheight=\"true\" data-kc-row-action=\"true\" data-kc-equalheight-align=\"middle\" class=\"kc-elm kc-css-991583 kc_row kc_row_inner\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-446361 kc_col-sm-6 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\"><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-28662 kc_shortcode kc_single_image\">\n\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/waymood.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/houten-design-urn-met-sterren-en-horloge-keepsake.jpg\" class=\"\" alt=\"Waymood design urn met sterren en horloge als keepsake\" \/>    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-674764 kc_col-sm-6 kc_column_inner kc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"kc_wrapper kc-col-inner-container\">\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-739585 kc-title-wrap \">\n\n\t<h3 class=\"kc_title\">Keepsake<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-188543 kc_text_block\"><\/p>\n<p>The Waymood urn partly originated from the idea that an &#039;urn&#039; is more than just an &#039;ash container&#039;.
