The Craftique Redux shop at Etsy offers ornaments and decorations for the Dia de Los Muertos ofrenda, and also printable altars and journal cards to add your own photos! Above is a rosette with shimmering ribbons.
One printed memory journal themed for Dia de Los Muertos; perhaps to put upon the ofrenda altar measures approximately 5" x 7". The front cover features a saluting sugar skull Army soldier and the words 'Mi heroe para siempre' - (translation: 'my hero forever') -- note that the wording on this journal is in Spanish, not English.
The back of the journal is also printed with the words 'Recuerdame como valiente y verdadero' - (translation: remember me as brave and true), with a soaring eagle image. Inside the left cover of the journal is a large side tuck pocket, which contains a printed sheet of paper with the words 'escribeme por favor' Translation: 'please write to me'. There is also a smaller square pocket on the front of this larger tuck pocket. On the right-hand side of the journal is a 'waterfall' arrangement of cards with the word ''Recuerdos' (memories) for you to adhere your photos onto the front and write your memories onto the back side of the cards. There is a printed paper band with a ribbon-tie closure for the journal. The journal pockets have printed ephemera included. This unique journal could also double as a greeting card and comes with an A7 envelope.
There are two different printable ofrendas that are fun and colorful to place upon a shelf or desk; come check them out at Craftique Redux of Etsy.
