Faery Altars

Faery altars work much the same as normal altars, except instead of honoring a God of Goddess, you are honoring the fae.
A simple way to design a faery altar would be to take things that are sacred to the fae or that they are known to like and place it on the altar. Also offerings, pictures and statues are nice as well.

Faery Gardens

Faery Garden's are simply areas that have plants that are attractive to faeries within them. Plants/Flowers such as roses or bluebells will work. Along with a small water fountain. Also any overgrown garden patch in your backyard is likely to attract them also.

Refer to Lesson Three for more on what faery's like.

I already have a dried rose on my altar, as well as marbles and two crystal balls. I read somewhere that Faeries like shiny objects so I guess marbles and crytall balls are in. Is that all right?

Yep sounds perfect. Actually I've never considered marbles myself but they'd be perfect in that they'd reflect off the objects around them.
