The travellers suitcase
The Suitcase .. a reminder that we are passing through this is not our forever home .
It all started with me finding a vintage suitcase ...i bought it and took it home with me as a reminder im just passing through in this life here on earth I started putiing small things inside travel things ..journals .. and more personal things i wanted to remember .
At times when i would be a litlle low id pick up the suitcase and remind myself ...Than one day a friend called needed a gift for someone who was left behind after a loved one passed away ..i thought of a vintage personalized suitcase ..a picture painted on the front of the beloved gone off to a better place so all the tiny reminders could be stored in there ... needless to say it went over very well .
Than someone else called they were getting married .and wanted a vintage suitcase with their wedding picture painted on there and the vows ..how beautiful and i really enjoyed making that also .
And the story grew slowly but surely a birth / suitcase ..an baptism suitcase all of them journeys ..all of them travellers ..
The travellers suitcase was born .
De stille getuige de koffer
in de hoek van de kamer
De mens
De Hoop op aarde
en tegelijk
op weg naar huis
op doorreis
onderweg zijn
