There’s something about spring that makes me get all crafty and I don’t know what that is. Maybe it’s the fact that I can finally get outside to spraypaint / use chemicals. Maybe it’s because the SO is finally going away to the cabin on the weekends and leaving me to my own devices. I don’t know.
So I found this box:
And it’s got this weird little grate in it?
I don’t know what it is. A humidor? Potpourri box? Is it for remains? No clue.
But the grate lifts out....
...and it reminds me of a little confessional.
And I, the perpetual altar-maker says, yes. This should be a tiny shrine. But for whom?
Dude. No brainer. My patron diety, protector of the dead, lover of the living, weigher of hearts and lord of secrets...
WHO ELSE LOVES ANUBIS LIKE I LOVE ANUBIS?
I’ll put the photos under the cut. This is mostly for @lowlights since I promised her pictures of my tarot shrine and haven’t been able to work on that one (much bigger project). So she gets this for now. But maybe y’all can appreciate a little craftaganza?
We start with the outside. Let’s add his cartouche and his symbol, the ankh. Because even through Anubis is the god of the dead, he also symbolizes eternal life and appreciating all the beauty of the current one.
And on the other side, let’s add the man of the hour himself.
Hot.
Okay. I was going to do the cartouche in gold, but @feathersandfoxtails gave me the inspiration to keep the shrine like a little Egyptian tomb--all business on the outside and let the inside shine.
Like this.
He’s back there, but the grate gives him a little privacy.
So I learned gold leafing for this project and want to bedeck everything now. The grate was just done in gold paint tho. I kept the good stuff for his room.
Tada!!! Tiny shrine for a tiny god! There’s a little carpet (thank you, actual woven carpet bookmark) and a couple of scarabs @feathersandfoxtails gave me from Egypt. That little golden pot next to him is a holder for an incense cone...and when I light that sucker up and put the grate on it, it’s gonna spill out like our boy is hot boxing himself in Egyptian musk.
He’s kinda hard to see here, but you have to lookit my wee Anubis. He’s so sweet:
And now he’s got a home!!!
I’m just so tickled with how it turned out. I hope he is too.
Thank you for indulging my crafting excitements. I’ve got a whole bunch of other ones to make, so watch this space for more tiny shrines...

3D cross stitched version of Yato's tiny shrine from Noragami. So many months of work and it is complete!! I'm so so proud and pleased with how this turned out! (The house is removable from the base so that wishes can be placed inside)

So this is 2 stacks of both issues of Tiny Shrine Zine all ready for the Halifax Pop Explosion Zine Fair that just passed. 40 zines in total here, so tiny.
