DEVOTIONAL HOME SHRINE
White home wall
transformed into old world charm
With a little european artistry, a plain white wall sacredly becomes an enchanting Catholic personal shrine.
More commonly found in Europe, quaint home altars are adorned with holy cards, personal items, garden flowers, statuary, reliquaries, candles, or rosaries—giving special meaning and devotion in a home during any part of the day.
“With a careful understated effort after the wall shrine was complete, I arranged the shrine with family rosaries, lace and meaningful photos. Expressing cultural-aging convincingly, was highly enjoyable” -Stephen Cascio
FAUX PROCESS
• Distress plaster wall
• Ad-lib trowelled plaster
• Introduced stress cracks
• Painted with multiple shades of color
• Adding depth, an arch opening was cut between studs, uncovering fascinating lathe detail
• Add old front shelving
• White worn painted arch with cross embellishes the shrine
