Everything Under the Moon

So when I do rituals and spells I plan to do them outside my home. In the woods. There's a reserve/trails by my house and ill be going there when I find a spot. So I guess a standard altar is kinda outta the question.
I saw portable altars on etsy. Do you think they are worth it. I'm not really thrilled on buying premanufacted pieces and want handmade things.

honestly don't spend your money, I used an old shoe box that I decorated and covered it with a piece of cloth. inside I was able to put miniature statues, small candles, my chalice, athame and prayer stick.

Oh nice. These ones on etsy are in a pouch and are meant to just stick in your purse and such.

I have a nice cedar cigar box with representations of the elements, a tiny incense burner, a tea light in an old salmon egg jar (perfect... with a lid) a bottle of water, a crystal. For the God and Goddess I have an antler point and an owl feather. There are a few other various goodies within, but that's all you really need. the box fits nicely in a bag...off I go the the woods! FF.

I'd just use a tote bag to carry a travel-mug of sacred coffee or bottled water, a metal bowl for a fire-pot, dry kindling or tea lights & lighter, and either your blade or carry a walking stick to cast with. The Land itself is an altar & a rock or tree stump is convenient. Water & the fixings for Fire are toted in but Air & Earth are right there at hand. Travel light.
