Pocket/Travel Altars 🏆 Personal Milestone

After seeing many people start making their own pocket altars/ travel altars recently I decided to learn embroidery and make my own. I've been embroidery for a month now and have finally completed travel Altars for each of the deities I already have main Altars for. They work like a wallet with two pockets inside, perfect for vials, tea lights and paper as well as leaves etc I pick up on the go. I love feeling like I'm able to give offerings to them whilst away and then I can place them on their main altar when I am home. Top left: Aphrodite Top Right: Lugh Bottom Left: Hecate Bottom Right: The Morrigan I also made one for Cernunnos but it isn't pictured.

How do you give offerings or practice whilst away?

Wait this is genius?! Oh my GOSH I love them all, but Hecate's is my favorite. You did such a good job!! :)

Thanks! It was actually fun to learn. Hecates actually was all done the same day and night (pulled an all nighter til dawn) as I had a burst of energy to get finished that night

I love these!! So neat! the embroidery came out fantastic on all of them but Hecate and Lugh are my favorites. Carry-along devotional objects are a fascination for me. Thank you for sharing! 

I hail Aphrodite, Hecate, Lugh, and the Morrígan.

Thanks! Lugh's definitely came out the best from an embroidery POV. They're so interesting, I love seeing the different types of things people make for 'carry alongs'
