Now you can take your rituals anywhere!
 <  Image 1 of 4  > 

When I was younger, I loved dollhouses. I read a book about a family of dolls in a dollhouse that comes to life and I was obsessed with making furniture and decorating my little house. I had a plastic fireplace that even lit up and made flickering flame noises. When I got older, I gave all my old toys to my cousins. Well, my aunt did some spring cleaning and asked me to take this, so I did and decided to make this...

I made some of the miniatures myself, the crystal ball is a marble on a small metal piece, the painting is made of a papercraft frame and a picture from google images.

For the "wood paneling" I just printed a pattern of purple wood I made on my computer and glued it in, let it dry and then cut it with an x-acto blade.

I use it for rituals, it's a whole little altar with representations of magical tools!

ooooh this is just fanastic! :D Adorable and functional for your ritual needs. I probably need to have you make me one so I could put it out of reach from my little ones when its not in use lol. :D

Very cool- I've read about having mini tools for traveling, but this is completely beyond that. Adorable and magikal- the perfect combo. :)
