Altar Making

I've started to build a new altar.  You can too!  I think it all begins with an over-sized tray. I got mine at a garage sale for $2.  Next find  some spiritual icons you love; those that speak to you personally, deeply. Perhaps some rocks, minerals, gems. Candles. Feathers.  Small lockets with loved ones' photos.  Here I drape a special flower necklace my Son brought home for me from Cuba and a silver necklace that belonged to my Grandmother.  What I love about looking at other altars is that they each evolve with their own design DNA. No two are ever alike!  Do you have one?  PFXO
