Never any need to apologize for being busy, Gray- I think it’s something everyone can relate to! Always feel free to take your time with responses. There’s no rush around here 😊

They’ll absolutely work! I love my switch on candles- I have some that flicker and give a really nice atmosphere, and most importantly they are kitten safe. I don’t have to worry about singed fur when curious cats come poking around my spellwork space 😺

I’d say just one candle is enough for many spells, but four is even better- with four you can put one in each of the four directions 🧭

Do you have a drawer or shelf you could use? Storage boxes are also an option for some folks 👍 For inspiration, you might want to browse through some travel altars- they are often made in very creative ways, can be portable, and store well in small spaces.

Here are a few discussions where you might get some ideas!

You are very welcome to share pics if you feel called to do so- I know I would love to see what you are working on! 🥰

There’s actually a great place to share altar pics (and get inspiration from seeing others’ altars) here: [All Altars! Feel Free to Share Yours with the Coven :infinite_roots:](https://forum.spells8.com/t/all-altars-feel-free-to-share-yours-with-the-coven/25731)

Wishing you all the best as you bring your altar space to life- blessed be, Gray! ✨
