Preparing Your Space

Creating an abundance altar is a personal and meaningful journey. Let's dive into how you can prepare your space to make it truly special.

Choosing the Right Location

First things first, find yourself a spot somewhere in your house or wherever you like to work. This should be a place where you feel comfortable and inspired. It’s important that this space is dedicated to your altar, so make sure it’s somewhere you can leave undisturbed.

Find yourself a spot somewhere in your house or wherever you like to work.

Setting Boundaries for Your Creative Space

Once you’ve chosen your location, it’s time to set some boundaries. Let everyone know that this area is off-limits for a few days. You’re about to create something really beautiful and meaningful, and it deserves respect and space.

Tell everybody to leave it alone for five days because you're about to create something really beautiful and meaningful.

Initial Setup of the Altar

Now, let’s talk about the initial setup.
You’ll need three sheets of paper suitable for paint (don't have all the material in the video?
Don't make it stop you. The attention and creation are more important than making it perfect.

The idea is to create something compact and portable, so it can travel with you if needed.

Remember, this is just the beginning.
Your altar will grow and evolve as you continue to work on it. Enjoy the process and make it your own!

Tools and Materials

First up, you'll need some paper. Actually, you need three sheets of paper. These will serve as the foundation for your altar setup. You can use them to experiment and find what works best for your creative vision.

Introduction to Gesso and Paints

Next, let's talk about gesso. Gesso is a fantastic primer that you'll be using a lot, especially if you join The Real You. It's available in various sizes, but if you're planning to paint more, consider getting a larger tube.

For paint, you'll need at least some acrylic paint. There are many options out there, For now, use what you have. When you join The Real You, I will give you a full list.

 Feel free to experiment and find what suits you best.

Decorating Your Altar

Choosing Colors and Themes

Using Gold Paint and Glitter
2024 update> unless you've got biodegradable glitter: don't use it!!! because it's plastic and it kills the fishes and ocean.

For the outside, I used gold acrylic paint. Even after all these years, it's still 100% as fresh as in 2016. There are various shades to choose from, so pick a gold you love. 

Personalizing with Meaningful Items

While decorating, consider adding items that hold personal significance to you. This could be anything from small trinkets to photos or symbols that represent abundance in your life.

Final Touches and Personalization

Welcome to the final stage of creating your abundance altar! This is where you get to add those personal touches that make it uniquely yours.

Adding Personal Messages and Decorations

One of the most meaningful ways to personalize your altar is by adding small messages. You can write down your requests and desires on little pieces of paper. These messages can be hung from a twig, creating a beautiful and personal display.

"All the small messages will be and requests and desires will hang from a twig."

Using Twigs and Other Natural Elements

Incorporating natural elements like twigs can add a rustic and organic feel to your altar. These elements not only enhance the aesthetic but also connect your altar to the natural world.

Ensuring Everything is Meaningful

Every item you add should hold significance. Whether it's a piece of gold foil paper glued to the back of your altar or a specific color of paint, make sure it resonates with your intentions.

"Everything should be meaningful."

Tools and Materials

• Gold Paint: Add some sparkle or color.
• Gold Foil Paper: Glue it to the back of your altar for a touch of elegance.
• Glue and Scissors: Essential for assembling your altar.
• Gel Medium (Optional): Delays drying and adds a glossy finish.
• Gesso: to create strength to your paint
• Watercolors: Use them on thin paper to write your messages.
• Thin paper: for your messages
• String: for your wires
• stick/ twig: to hold your messages

Maintaining Your Abundance Altar

Keeping your abundance altar fresh and inspiring is a delightful journey. Regular updates and changes are key to reflecting your personal growth and keeping the energy vibrant.

Regular Updates and Changes

Consider adding new elements like a piece of wrapping paper or something from your art supply store. Look for materials that catch your eye, like paper with glitters. These can be used to decorate your messages to the universe.

Reflecting on Personal Growth

Use watercolor to add a personal touch to your messages. These messages can be hung from a twig, creating a beautiful display of your desires and requests to the universe.

Keeping the Altar Inspiring

Everything on your altar should be meaningful. Whether it's a twig from nature, a pencil, or an old brush, choose items that speak to you. Ask them if they want to be part of your abundance altar. This connection makes your altar a true reflection of your journey.

Maybe there will be desires or long standing wishes you forgot about.

Be prepared for wonderful surprises.

Explore nature or your own garden to find elements that resonate with you. Let your altar evolve as you do, and enjoy the wonderful surprises it brings.
