Hi Pagan,

With Mabon coming, ever thought about making one themed to the season?

You can get inspiration from many of the creative altars here at WSI!

Start with a "focus point", be it a peice of artwork, a season or sabbat, a specific goddess, or a color scheme and build around it! My altar changes each sabbat, and for special rituals as well...

Blessed Be!

I personally did mine by sight. I started with my focal point a incence burner i really liked and connected to that has angels on it. I then added my candles and began to look for holders i connected to. i traipse thru good wills, yard sales, flea markets, wherever and just get what catches my eye. I continued this over a period of months (and still buy things here and there). In the end I now have two altars, one permanant one and one that is movable. I have fairies, angels, cat's eye yarn thing one of my kids made, rocks and crystals, even a rosary type piece. there is a cauldron, stick incence holder, candle snuffer ect. in the end my perm one is more woods and brass than anything where as my movable one has many pieces i alternate out pending mood and what strikes me as proper to use for wahtever ritual i am doing..

so I suggest you begin by walking around dollar stores, good wills ect till something jumps out at you. or if you already have a piece you really connect to and feel lost without use it to start and find things that go with it..
