How do I build my altar for Witchcraft?

How do I begin building my altar for witchcraft spells?

Alters should be set up in the north corner of the house or at least the room that the alter is in. You can use any stand you’d like, but we think natural materials are best. You will need a chalice or favorite cup, a pentagram, candles of all colors, an incense burner and different kinds of incense, some people like to have a small staute representing their special diety, or some figurines of their animal totem, it’s all really up to you. Salt is pretty much a necessity, in my book, but as every alter is personal and private, you can go any direction you’d like. Some people have very ornate wands, others have very simple items gathered from the woods or gifted to them by other wiccan friends. Type “wicca alters” into your search engine for some other ideas.

    you can find pentacles for your alter at any wiccan shop best websites: in america- ladyhawk’s treasures. australia- uncle festers.
    you can scater salt any wher on you alter or in a bowl. you dont need salt on your alter,you might need it for circles but you could put it on a shelf.
