Here's mine!

Post by silvergrey »

Hi everyone,

so here's a picture of my altar :) On it is a mirror, scrying mirror, candles, my BoS, a chunk of amethyst, incense holder, cup, pendulum, wand and my new set of tarot cards. They're the Shadowscapes deck by artist Stephanie Pui Mun Law and they're sooo pretty. The centerpiece is a ram skull I made out of modeling clay. I painted it and added the crystals on top with a hot glue gun. For me it symbolizes the cycle of life, death and rebirth and the beauty in everything.

Thank you! The ram skull was a very fun project because it took quite a bit of time to finish. Kept me busy!
The scrying mirror and wand are also hand-made, but those were a lot easier :)

Lovely!
What sort of modeling clay are you using?

I used the cheapest kind I can get, so just a simple brick of grey modeling clay. It was the air drying kind so no oven involved :)

Are you talking like Roma Plastilina? The oil based modeling clay? That used to only come in grey,
But when you say air dry, is it the kind that should go in the kiln but you just don't fire it?
I couldn't imsgine that much sculpy in the oven :lol:

Hi Firebird, I can't remember if the clay had a brand name, it was €2 a brick and suited my needs so I didn't look at anything else to be honest! It didn't need to go in the kiln so I just let it sit and dry on its own, which took about a week or so because I used 2 whole bricks for this thing :)

YanaKhan, thank you!
