Another One-of-a-Kind Shrine for La Santisima Muerte. I'm still crafting the goodies that will go inside (incense, oil, mojo, candles). Below you can see the mojo filled and blessed with herbs sacred to her.
Close up of the image. It started out black and white then was doctored in Photoshop and then embellished by hand with paint, pigments, shells, paper flowers and an awesome resin cameo! Shrines are custom and can be ordered by contacting me at info (at) pumpkincottageconjure (dot) com
This is the mojo that will go in the shrine. The fabric has skulls and crossbones. Cute, right?
Speaking of mojos, here is a Road Opener mojo conjured for a customer. Made with a black, white and silver skull fabric and red lace.
I make a lot of money drawing/prosperity mojos. This one was ordered by a customer. I love the little silver money bag charm!
I'm running a mojo special. 20%! Each one is hand-crafted, blessed and unique. They come with a dram bottle of blessed hoodoo oil and a 4" candle with instructions on how to "wake-up" and work your mojo. Interested? Venture on over to Pumpkin Cottage Conjure.
Today I went to Dollar General to pick up some miscellaneous necessities. I know I am not the only one who goes into these dollar stores and comes out with things you didn't know you needed.
I found myself standing in the aisle with the artificial flowers...just staring at them...not knowing why. Finally after a few minutes of being dumbfounded I grabbed two bunches of fake flowers and went on my way.
When I got home I realized what the flowers were for. Santisima Muerte and Yemaya both wanted some beautification done to their altars. And since I am good little Spirit server...
Yesterday I set these candles for clients. One (left) for money. On (right) for love. The candles are burning bright and strong which is a good sign.
Today I am tending to (in other words cleaning) altars. My working altar, dedicated to my Ancestral Spirit, Mama Da, gets especially messy. I use this altar daily...burning candles, burning incense, setting lights for clients, conjurin' mojos, crafting spells. So, yeah, it gets dusty and messy easily.
~ BEFORE ~
The altar is always adorned with a white altar cloth. White altar cloths demand sacrifices of loose herbs and incense, dripping candle wax, and sometimes they really love to be singed.
I decided, since I am breaking out ye olde sewing machine to create some new items for The Moonlit Sea (and Pumpkin Cottage Conjure), to make a quickie new white altar cloth.
