No altar here and certainly no "woo-woo" either. I'd only first heard the word "woo-woo" early today and then again with your TT. The first tiem was in the context of some weirdo wanting to tear down a local landmark to building something with better "woo-woo."
Happy TT and thanks for stopping by.
Thank you so much for sharing your sacred space with us. I am honored and touched, my sister.
That's an interesting space. The items you keep here tell a wonderful story. God bless.
Very interesting, but what makes it an altar rather than a shelf?
I like that butterfly pin.
I don't have an alter either, but I don't see anything wrong with having one either. Good for you and thanks for sharing. Have a great TT. :)
I don't have an altar - yet. I have a book right next to me called 'The Book of Chakra Healing' which I bought a few months ago. I'm open to start collecting things for my altar, and one of them is that book. Thanks for sharing yours with us. I love that thicker bracelet surrounding the container.
Well, the ashes threw me a little. How sad...Oh dear. OK. I have to go now.
I stopped by to view your wordless Wed. but I love the altar photo. I will be back for a closer look at your blog.
Cool. I'm too spartan to have half those items.
I've been by a few times before for WW, but girl you are on my hot list now. Good on you for putting this out there. What a beautiful, beautiful post. Thanks for sharing. Mine has been sadly neglected, but you have inspired me to pay better attention.
Very nice, very meaningful.
It's been a while since I've heard anyone mention a petosky stone. They were cool things to find when I was a kid.
A little freaky, yes. But it makes you interesting.
Yeah, you're TOTALLY freaky!!! :) :) So adorably freaky. Hey, I think it's cool, it's like a three dimensional scrapbook without all the pastel and little bears and watermelon slices. Hehehe.
