16) END TABLE ALTAR: Get one of those inexpensive end tables that are storage boxes with covers. Often, they come on wheels. Keep your altar supplies inside in smaller baskets and boxes. When you wish to hold a ritual, wheel it out to where you want it, lift the cover and take out the supplies you need. Replace the cover and set your altar up on top of the table.

I have an end table altar, but it's the kind that opens in the front. I love that it is five sided. I hadn't thought about putting wheels on it before, but it does sound like a good idea.
Thanks for sharing the article, Kassandra. :)

That is a good idea that article has on that. I remember I used to put wheels on a lot of my furniture items, since I used to like to move things around a lot. hehe

These are great ideas! I'm new to wicca so I haven't made an alter yet. I'll probable make a shoe box alter for my bedroom and hidden in plain sight for my living room. I can't have candles because I live in a college apartment so I'll use stones or something for the living room and small candles for the shoe box. Thanks for the ideas!

Nice ideas. The hidden in plain sight one is very useful!

Mine is on the kitchen window at the moment, nicely hidden behind the curtain. Nobody will have any idea of it unless they happen to take a peek for some reason. Most of the time, nobody does. Well I don't have that many guests anyway. :P
