Remember this board? Originally I put it up on the wall just to hold my candles. But since the cats started eating my altar - and since I had to remove it every now and again for security reasons - I switched things around a little. This is still a 15x30cm wooden board fixed to the wall with shelf arms, the lids of the jars beneath have been nailed and glued to the wood and the jars still hold my gemstones (you remember what I wrote some time back about using crystals in magic, right? Haven't bought a thing since, but haven't thrown anything out either. There are shops promising to only sell less unhealthy crystals and stones, but I am still poor and haven't tried them). On top of the shelf, from left to right - my reading lamp ^^, a Briar card (not for any special reason - I liked the image, and the card was there before), my god/goddess stone, an empty tiny wooden tin, a rosequartz bracelet I occasionally wear to remind me to love myself (crazy what things people forget, right?), a honey jar spell in the middle, my "loving relationship" spell in a heart-shaped glass plate, an oild burner and a molten piece of charcoal my grandparents brought me from South Africa. It is not much of a "traditional" altar, and will undubitably change a bit every now and then, but it feels good to have my witchy place back up and working.
Do you have any altar pictures you would like to share?
PS: Yes, I am practically unable to take a picture that is not lopsided. ^^

This is simply a wonderful altar. My space is too small to have a permanent altar set up, but I'll post one as soon as I get my yule altar set up.
I love how the jars seem to float in mid air. Beautiful!Brightest blessings!
Love it! You just made me want to dress up my altar for the Winter Solstice. I was going to wait until December 13th, but now I might not be able to wait ;-)
