Crafty Chica Challenge: Create a Day of the Dead Shrine
Sheenasmom Altar09
Hi Crafters! The deadline for the Crafty Chica Challenge: Create a Day of the Dead Shrine has been extended to Sunday, November 1st at 11:59 PDT. Winners will be announced on Monday, November 2nd. It's easy to enter! Just add the photo of your shrine into the Crafty Chica Challenge Flickr Group and enter in a 250 word or less description of what your shrine represents and what materials were used in its creation.

Pictured above is the current altar-in-progress by Connie Ayers, our own Sheena Stevens' mom.

Sheena writes:

She hasn't yet strung together her marigolds and put the finishing touches on the altar, so this is the basic set-up. All of the photos are our loved ones who have passed away. I love having all of their pictures up in the house every year around this time, it's a nice way to remember!
