Creating Sacred Space on the Road: Travel Altar Tins

[@LeahArnoldSmeets]

I love this! My fascination of miniature things has been satisfied, too. 🙂

Thanks, Leah! 🙂🖤

Same here. Oddly satisfying...

I love those incense matches! Why did it never occur to me to cut them in half??? Brilliant!

[@thebookofmoons7774]

Thanks! 🖤

I love the little dream box. My youngest grandson has always had nightmares and night terrors, so I'm going to make one of these to help him sleep better. Thank you for sharing this!

[@thebookofmoons7774]

I love to hear that--thank you!

Cute travel altars! Dreamcatchers help with nightmares.

Thank you! This is perfect for practicing in secret when having an altar on display is not an option. Loved the first one! ✨

This is one of the most beautiful traveling altars I’ve seen! May I ask what size the larger size tin is? I’m in search!

[@thebookofmoons7774]

Sorry for the delay-- posting in case anyone else is curious, too: 4x6. : )

[@kv1815]

Could you let us know how you re-painted the tins, please? Did you use some sort of pri er, and what paints did you use?

[@thebookofmoons7774]

Hi KV! I didn't do anything special for prep--no primer, but I did give them a wipe down. Then I used regular spray paint for the outsides, and I used acrylic paint for the stars and spirals. The insides got a bit of acrylic paint and/or some felt (the larger tin) or cardstock that I also painted with acrylic paint. For some of the other embellishments--the moon face and goddess on the sweet dreams box, I used Modge-Podge to glue them on. I hope that helps!

[@kv1815]

@@thebookofmoons7774 Thank you very much :)

The small box contains all four, right? candle is fire.

[@thebookofmoons7774]

If you work with four elements, you could certainly count the candle as fire; in my Gaelic-based practice I only work with three: Earth, Sea, and Sky.
