Does anyone have any pictures on their blog of an altar made from the plans that come with the mass kit from OFH? Thanks!

Anyone do anything similar? Any homemade altar pics? Tony bought the wood over the weekend, but he says the plans that came with the mass kit are a bit vague and a visual of the finished product would be nice.

Also, I am ready to do the first altar presentation, but the altar is not ready. Should I wait for the altar to be made or use something else for the time being? Thanks!

Lisa,

Here's pictures of Mackmom's altar that her brother -- I believe- made for her kids...
Jen's home atrium

Here's a related thread -

Moira's albums

And while we were putting our altar together, we used a little kid table. The only bad thing was that the "clean-up" was different when we had the real altar.

I don't know if anyone else has opinions, etc.

Lisa, I bought a stool from the local craft store. Actually I bought 2, one being smaller to be used as the credence table. The larger one may be just a tad less deep than it should be, but its fine with me. There was no way my husband was going to be able to get around to making one for me and it was very inexpensive. I lined a basket with some fancy fabric, and that is the container for putting the items away. We may not be as precise as others but I just really wanted to actually do the lessons and spend less time fretting about getting it perfect.

Thanks Maryan and Maria! My husband bought all the supplies to make one, I will post pics when he is done. He asked me not to start until he was done!

Here are some great pictures of an atrium, with altar pictures from Mozart and Mud Pies:
