Shrine ideas?


Posts: 53

For those that have made shrines for their loved ones, how'd it go? What was your process?

If you'd like to build a shrine, do you have any ideas for one?

I have a temporary shrine at the moment, an empty wine box I decorated. I'm looking into making a more permanent shrine, even though that person sort of left me (I think he was just feeling shitty about himself so I'm hopeful he'll come back).

I'm thinking of using wood to make an actual box, and I think I want some sort of platform but I'm not sure yet. I know I want a small box lined in some sort of red cloth (crushed red velvet?) with the outside painted silver, maybe some greenish-blue accents somewhere (some colors he likes).

Loving someone wholeheartedly is way better than changing partners again and again

I only have a fictional character darling at the moment (waiting for my real life darling) so my shrine is limited to a phone gallery of photos at the moment but I've come up with a few ideas for a shrine/alternatives/things to add that I want to try someday:

  • notebook dedicated to darling (diary entries about them, photos and descriptions, artwork, lipstick kisses on the paper for them, venting your love or them on in entries, scripting them to come to you for manifestations, etc.)
  • an Altar dedicated to them (Pictures, their fave things, fave flowers in bouquet, candles and incense with their fave colours and scents, etc.)
  • a secret stash/collection of their stuff (old pencils, wrappers, crumpled paper with doodles from the bin, pictures, etc. I love collecting things and having them secret for myself like little shiny things found in random places so I love the idea of this option.
  • a website on neo-cities or something like that dedicated to them/your connection

coming back to that collection idea I have a little wooden box where i keep my misc trinkets (ex: an old time piece from a watch or old mercury batteries i found in my nana's basement, etc.) I could totally see myself having a little box, opening it and on the top inside of the lid have a picture or two of my future darling and collect things in there and stash it away happily. I guess that mixes an altar and the collection to make a shrine right? It sounds like it would be fun.

I also totally want to try the notebook one and it could be kept in the box too! 

Wondering if one day I'll find you..
