Hello to all,
Since Imbolc, I’ve been keeping fresh on my Altar. Try to buy a bouquet every week or so. Nothing expensive, just pretty and bright colors that invoke feelings of spring to come. Plus I feel my altar appreciates it. Makes me feel good too. Anyhow, i bought a of carnations a couple of days ago. I saved the cut stems and decided to make a pentagram with it. Been wanting to buy one , however, being on a tight budget, just need to be creative.
What do you guys think?
I love the idea of adding fresh flowers to your altar each week. I imagine as warmer weather comes, it will be easier to find dazzling flowers to decorate your sacred space!
You are so creative to save the stems and use them to make something so lovely- the pentagram came out amazing Thank you for share your great idea and the beautiful outcome- it’s inspirational! (And I love the sprinkle of petals on top- so pretty! )
Good morning @walter! That looks lovely & I love that you are keeping fresh flowers! Carnations come in so many colors or you can change them fairly easily too. The pentagram looks really good. You did a great creative job on it! I have fresh lilies in my house right now. I love fresh flowers also. The smells & the colors. Definitely invoke feelings of Spring in my house. I can’t wait for them to start blooming in my yard. Sometimes we get our crocuses around this time of year. I haven’t seen any yet, but when I do I will take a couple of pictures. They are what let me know that Spring is around the corner here.
I wish I could keep flowers, but I have a difficult enough time keeping the cat out of my morning candles. But that is just a wonderful idea! And I love your pentagram! Sometimes homemade is better, you put your time and energy into it. Great job!
@walter this looks great! I should have thought about that and did the same from the flowers I bought. I will have to remember to do this next time. Thank you for sharing. Blessed be.
@BryWisteria , thank you so much! I like to buy, carnations or daisies. Not expensive at all- 6.00-7.00 per . I like to change up the cloth, which is a scarf. They have so many different colors at the dollar store. Feels good to invest in my Altar. I like changing it up- nice to have budget- friendly options.
