Altered Books

Inspiritus by Bernadette Rose Smith

I offer four Inspiritus Guided Altar Books. These interactive altar books are divinely designed for inspiration and fun with you in mind.

The Leap of Faith Altar: This magical Inspiritus portal is brought into form with the intuitive guidance I receive on your behalf. Your engagement and delight begins when you receive the finished piece.

The Adventure Altar: This divine portal is a collaboration that includes your participation before I begin. It is perfect if you have a specific concern, interest or passion in mind that you would like your altar to reflect. I will ask you a series of short questions to aid in meeting your preferences for color, visuals, and subject matter before approaching spirit guidance for the rest.

The Bless You Altar: This share-the-love portal makes a delightful gift to mark a special occasion like a wedding or birth – or a transition point like a retirement or cancer survivor marker. It can also be gifted as an Adventure altar, however, it is best that you know this person very well so they will be able to receive such a wonderful and intimate gift comfortably. Otherwise, I will not be able to intuit what I need for this portal to be open for them.

Altar Books start at $450…

The Coffee Table Book Altar: A rare bird but they do appear from time to time. These are spontaneous altars I am inspired to create “just because” with the knowledge that they are not to be kept by me but are for someone whose path I have not yet crossed. I call them coffee table altars as they can also serve as creative inspiration for the spiritual art collector and connoisseur. I post these books on my blog (and on Facebook) so follow me if you would like to be notified when there’s a sighting!

About Your Inspiritus Altar Book.
I use re-purposed, hardbound books.
Altar books typically include six to nine spreads. That’s twelve to eighteen facing pages not counting the title page.
All books encourage interactivity with spaces for notes and cubbies for ephemera.
Altar books may come with prompts for use when interactive pages are included.

Occasionally information comes through from The Divine for sharing that is not to be included visually in the altar. In this case, I will include a note with your altar book when I ship it. There is not an additional charge for this impromptu Inspiritus message.

About the Order Process: Due to the sensitive nature and time involved in the creation of these altar books, I do only a limited number each year. (Though I absolutely adore this fusion of art, word, spirit, and you!) Please be aware there may be a waiting list at the time you place your order. If this is an altar book for a special occasion allow ample time in advance.

Most design requests can be handled by email. However, if you have special needs or considerations, we will schedule a time via email to talk about them. I am currently creating for clients in the United States only.

Payment and Return Policy: Because commissioned Inspiritus Altar Books are intuitively created solely for the recipient, payment for the altar is received in advance and I do not accept returns. All efforts are made in process to assure a beautiful altar for you or a loved one to enjoy.

You will be sent two PayPal links. The first link when we have agreed on the altar you wish to receive. The second link for shipping is sent upon completion. Shipping costs and best methods for shipping are determined after we know its weight and size. I am not responsible for loss or damage by earth angel carriers so altar books will be insured upon shipping.
