I decided this weekend to set up a permanent altar for Danto. Went out to Targut got a tall narrow tabley thing. Will dedicated it Tuesday. I hardly have anything to put on it as yet.

What kind of things does Danto like/want? Kel and I can keep our eyes peeled for stuff.

I know she'll need a double edged knife/dagger (and something tells me you know just where to find such a thing ;>) I've ordered this statue of Barbara Africana to represent her http://www.divinafe.com/shop/item.asp?itemid=508

Hmm, not sure what else. I gotta get some red and blue candle/votive holders and then maybe a red or blue vase with fake flowers ....

I love altar shopping. Plus I'm finding she's just as likely to tell me yes or no on a given item as Freda is ;> just not as loud.

Boy do I have just the thing for you. I went digging in my house and found a two edged dagger (about a foot long) with an antiqued copper finnish on the guard/handle/pommel. The pommel and guard of the dagger are styled after a bird of pray (hawk or falcon). The dagger itself has a good solid weight to it and feels sturdy.

I'll clean and polish it up but let you figure out what you want to add to it in the way of paint for the handle or colored ribbons tied to it or what not. It also does not have a sheath but the edges are not razor sharp (it is very pointed though).

Can't wait to show it to you soon and see if it would work for Her.

Wow Thanks! It wouldn't need a sheath anyway. That would be so cool!
