I've been thinking I should totally re-arrange my altar/shrine and give my peeps their own box-type shrines, so having these examples is fantastic :)

I'm so glad! I also love the way these examples encourage the use of everyday items like glitter, sequins, rhinestones and stickers to create both beauty and a sense of reverence.
