We have something kinda similar over here on our side of the pond – http://ofmiceandramen.blogspot.com/2009/08/hungry-ghost-festival.html

What a lovely idea. And so cheerfully colourful too. I can see there’s a natural affinity between you and my Austrian friends. They too celebrate their dead family and friends on Nov 1st – All Hallows Day and Nov 2nd – All Souls Day.

We’re heathens in the UK by comparison. All we do is spend 31st October scaring each other silly!

Say ‘hello’ to your family for me.

Kind regards,
L

You know, we honor our dead on their anniversary every year with an event (yes, even for this). There are rituals and prayers and we cook their favorite food. But I love that you added their favorite things too! Just wonderful! Hugs! Your altar is beautiful, Claudya. Bless you. I am sure they’re all smiling down on you.

What a sweet way to honor and remember the dead. Your display is perfect and thoughtful.

Something I liked, which my father did when his father died, was when he put a cigarette in my grandfathers suit pocket and a picture of the family too.
Also a can of beer with my other grandpa.

Traci, I had SO much fun making it. I didn’t expect it to be as fun as it was.
