Description:

I love to travel but I hate to leave my alter and don’t like caring a box of stuff so for many years I have carried a Icon style altar that is wrapped in a simple alter cloth. When I get to where I am going a simply find a flat surface put down the cloth then open the altar and go out and find local objects that hold meaning for me. This helps me to connect to where I am and continue to honor my connection to deity in a formal manner. Over the years I have made several of these altar for people and I couldn’t think of nicer people to try to make one for than the members of our group. So for this swap you will make 1 portable triptych altar for one member of our group dedicated to a Goddess of their choosing. The altar is a triptych that stands on its own when viewed but is still able to be folded easily so it can travel. The altar can be no smaller than 6” high and 4” across when closed and no bigger than 10" high and 8" across when closed. . The altar needs to be made out of a base material that is light and sturdy (wood panel, museum board, heavy mat board, plexi-glass, metal sheeting) but should not be breakable like potter’s clay or glass. The construction needs to be sturdy and standup to use. The panel can be decorated in any manner you wish (Drawing, painting, collaged, wood burning, mosaic, plastic clay, stamped, mixed media). This is a partner driven swap. The center panel should be focused on a Goddess of your Partner’s choosing. The whole altar piece should be covered in some manner but the outside does not have to as fancy or focused as the inside panels. When finished wrap it up nicely for your partner or put it in a bag to make it even more special. Most important make something that honors the Divine, you and your partner and have fun with the creative process. Please put a note in or on the package with your user name and the name of the swap. Also don't forget to rate -it is such a nice way to say thank you for your partner’s mindfulness. I will angel this swap. Happy Swapping!

Requirements:

  1. I will be manually checking profiles. You must be in good standing in the group with no past due swaps on your profile at the time I assign partners. If you have a concern about this message me.

  2. One traveling altar of sturdy construction for one partner that is a triptych that folds close. It should be no smaller than 6” high and 4” across when closed and no bigger than 10" high and 8" across when closed. The imagery should be inspired by your partner’s Goddess.

  3. Please post one or more Goddesses for your partner even if you have it posted on your profile. ( The Icon will focused on one Goddess form no matter how many are named). This is not a pagan swap but a Goddess swap that can honor any form of the Female Divine from any spiritual path.

  4. Wrap or put your altar in a bag to make it even more special for your partner.

  5. Put your user name and the swap name on or in the package that easy for your partner to find so they can rate you.

  6. Rate your partner.

oh for the love of the Goddess, it's altAR not alter.

Thank you for the spell check. I am sorry for the misspelling. I was made by the Goddess with SLD ( it shows up in part as word blindness). If the computer does not catch a misspelling I really can't see it. I know this can be very frustrating for some but not as frustrating as it is for me.
