EDIT: Thought I'd include links for some things being asked for on here. I didn't purchase everything new nor recently so there are some things I wasn't able to ID.

Art/Deco:

• "Kiss More Often" Wall art
  
  • Thanks to those that pointed out that the Amazon tapestry isn't affiliated with or supporting the original artist. I've linked to the artist's store instead
    
• Gold Trellis Wallpaper
  
• Bed Rest Pillow
  
  • I got this at Target but can't find the exact one. Amazon seems to have a bunch.
    
• Bedding/Comforter
  
  • I can't remember where this comforter came from since I've had it for so long. I'd recommend looking out for decent sales or checking HomeGoods for decently priced comforters
    
• Bed Throw Blanket
  
• Couch Throw Blanket
  
• White Corduroy Couch Pillow Covers
  
• Couch
  
  • Found it for cheap on Craigslist and can't provide an ID
    
• Floor Rug
  
  • Found it on Craigslist as well. It's a Safavieh Hudson Shag Rug
    
• Bedside Floor Rug
  
• Anti-Fatigue Mat for the Standing Desk
  
• 5-Arm Floor Lamp
  
• Ottoman with Storage
  
  • Found this on a marketplace (LetGo) and can't find any identifying details
    
• Incense Holder
  
• Duct Tape for Framing and Line Work
  
  Technology/Peripherals:
  
  
• Standing Desk
  
  • Buying the desk without the tabletop knocks off about $100 . It might be a cost-effective solution if you want to build a custom-tabletop/desk for under $300
    
• KRK Rokit 5 Studio Monitors
  
• Studio Monitor Stands
  
• TCL 43 Inch 4K TV
  
• Adjustable TV Desk Mount
  
• JBL 5.1 Home Theater Speaker System
  
  • Look for Amazon Warehouse deals on this stuff. I found a set for $100 below the price for a brand new set
    
• Yamaha RX-V383 AV Receiver
  
  • Found this used on LetGo
    
• Led Light Strips
  
  • I've had my light strips for years so I can't provide a specific ID for mine. I linked to a set that uses the same wifi controller as mine but you can shop around. I used 4 strips to do the bed backlighting, under-lighting and desk backlighting
    
• Led Wifi Controllers
  
  • If you have a led strip that doesn't have a wifi controller, you can purchase a compatible controller to take advantage of home automation

amazon, you can even get a lactating lady (nsfw) one

Welcome!

An altar doesn't have to be anything grand: the top of a small cupboard, or just a wall shelf will do. Here's a selection of modern Chinese ones (never be afraid to learn from other polytheists!) https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo/chinese-home-altar.html

You need

• a plate to put offered food on
  
• a bowl to pour libations into
  
• something to burn incense on. Amazon has lots of things, but avoid burning lumps of charcoal: the cheap solution is an incense stick in a holder, the expensive one is burning grains of incense over a tea-light https://www.amazon.com/Handmade-Adjustable-Frankincense-Charcoal-Candles/dp/B07C9C5975/ref=sr_1_149?crid=1VFWGRXTNW8AE&keywords=incense+burner&qid=1570899720&sprefix=incense+b%2Caps%2C316&sr=8-149
  
• a stature or picture of the god(s) you are worshiping is nice and helps to focus. You can down-load a lot of Greek art from http://www.theoi.com/
  
• a candle or lamp is traditional
  
• a vase for flowers is nice.
  
  You don't need to keep a fire burning. We don't have many Greek houses excavated, but very few of them had a hearth. Presumably they used portable braziers, and those wouldn't keep burning all day — or even all night.
  
  As for timing, worship when you get up, or before going to bed, or before a meal — whatever is convenient. I do it before dinner, then the fruit and wine I offer become part of my meal — like inviting the gods to dinner. The libation bowl I empty next day, with a little prayer (which I pinched from a Heathen!): "From the Gods to the Earth to us; from us to the Earth to the Gods. A gift for a gift."

I’m gonna say this doesn’t count. It’s obviously stylized and not meant to be anatomically accurate.

Also OPs photo only is showing one angle. You can see others on the Amazon website.

What people are calling her hips are actually her thighs. This figure is in a kneeling position. The ‘fupa’ that the smoke is pouring into is actually not apart of the woman’s anatomy. It’s a shell.

here’s a different model that’s a bit cheaper. There’s no adult male version I could find. I did find a peeing baby statue though

So yep… that’s a thing.


For those who still want some bad anatomy sculpture take a look at this resin POS

I have a horizontal 'coffin style' burner from Amazon.com that I do like, it came with a pre-oxidized felt pad with metal base lining, so it can fully burn the sticks. I find when I don't dump out the ash regularly it starts to smell ... mishmashy, but it has a cool effect. I also had to buy the fabric itself from Amazon and cut my own replacement pads since the thicker stick incense and charcoal 'low smoke' burns faster and eventually it flattens out the felt material.

Is the felt material, easy to cut. Could even lie it on a non-flammable (or even wood maybe as long as it has enough insulation!).

I could no longer find the coffin burner on Amazon, but the company also makes this burner, and it was at one point co-listed on the same item page (as an 'alternate color,' which made no sense)

https://www.amazon.com/Incense-Ceramic-Backflow-Incenses-Removing/dp/B01N6CA3NE?ref_=ast_bbp_dp

Maybe it will come back...

A different version https://www.amazon.com/Mayco-Bell-Backflow-Aromatherapy-Aromatic/dp/B07MN6H7KD/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=smoke+fountain&qid=1556218074&s=gateway&sr=8-3

My money's on an incense burner.

edit: it's not exactly the same, but here's an amazon listing for a similarly-shaped incense burner with a handle and an inner "basket" for the incense, etc.

Something like this should work

https://www.amazon.com/AM-Incense-Burner-Frankincense-Resin/dp/B079WLDJCW/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?keywords=resin+burner&qid=1571118485&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExRTNFTjlQSU9HN1ZVJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwODkzOTYwMjVRMk04S1dCS0tUVCZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwOTgzOTQ5MjNQTTJONk01VFREVCZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX3Bob25lX3NlYXJjaF9hdGYmYWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrUmVkaXJlY3QmZG9Ob3RMb2dDbGljaz10cnVl


Really just a quick google will help you find this stuff

Lol wait... you can buy the fixture here New. - EGG Ceramic Backflow Incense Burner Waterfall Incense Holder Home Decor Aromatherapy Ornament with 10 Cones Incense https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MNMNKTJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_dUmPCbKBRFPYH

I was thinking something of this nature could help!

It might take a bit, but it is a ritual, you're supposed to take your time with these things, even if it's only to "dispose" of these items.

Lol I took the picture from a bad angle. That is my dragon back flow burner.

https://www.amazon.com/MyGift-Purple-BackFlow-Dragon-Incense/dp/B07TSFPJZZ/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?keywords=asian+dragon+backflow+burner&qid=1569961678&s=gateway&sr=8-2

Here are two really cool ones from Amazon that I've used.

​

https://smile.amazon.com/Govinda-Wooden-Coffin-Incense-Burner/dp/B00MDXD8V0/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=incense+burner+box&qid=1570295607&sr=8-5 This one is like a basic stick burner, but opens and closes. Yes, you might get a box that won't hold your sticks well, but I've had this one for years and it's still great. It works well with most Indian style incense sticks, but does NOT work for Tibetan or Japanese incense because you need to put the bamboo end of the stick in the hole.

​

https://www.amazon.com/OneSoul-Collection-Incense-Catcher-Storage/dp/B07JZ2YS8J/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=OneSoul+Collection&qid=1570295822&sr=8-4 This one works for everything. You lay the stick on the black fabric, and let it burn. It's the best for Tibetan and Japanese sticks since you don't need a clip or holder to burn them. You can burn the entire stick with this.

Couple of these would be cool!
http://www.amazon.com/Brass-Aladdin-Genie-Lamps-Incense/dp/B00106CL64/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1409078881&sr=8-1&keywords=middle+eastern+decor

https://www.amazon.com/cheerfullus-Carved-Incense-Holder-Wooden/dp/B07DWWDJKV/ref=pd_ybh_a_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=T4RJQA4WD9X1Z5FKCNDV

This is cute:
https://www.amazon.in/dp/B079ZTD73J/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_eyfbBbXMA0S78

This one or This one with a lid would be cute-but-useful editions to your basket.

Also, you're a great and thoughtful friend. Just so you know. :)

1: u/ceracyanide you seem like you might have more of an opinion on this than anyone else I know :)

do you think this thing would work as a cool homemade candle? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002KDWPD0/?coliid=I2NNBMD7AH4JP7&colid=3Q01HRKF3UIKC&psc=0&ref=lv_ov_lig_dp_it
because in theory, I think it sounds cool, but im not so sure.

2: uplifting news; everyone has been In a pretty bad mood today, my family has been screaming at each other... but despite all that, my dog is still concerned and wanting to comfort us. and he cant do that for everyone if we're in separate rooms, so we have to be together and not fighting to cheer the dog back up. having my adorable little pitbull cuddle up against me makes me feel pretty good despite the negativity.I just love him so damn much you guys :) im so lucky to have each of these dogs!


3: im always thinking about the people I care about most, despite how much they piss me off. also, i have pretty colored eyes.

Okay, I've always dreamed of having a room that was all done up Arabian Nights style, with lovely lush silks hanging from the walls and pretty Moroccan lamps everywhere, so... I'm gonna give you that, via amazon suggestions :)

First we start with this lovely canopy for your bed. Then I would add this Incense burner because well, it looks like a genie lamp, and incense is sexy and can help you set the mood. Then we would hang several of these beautiful hanging candle holders around the room, for mood, also it's impossible for anyone to look bad by candle light. Then we would hang several of these along the walls, to really give it that Arabian appeal, so you feel like you are in a tent. Then top that off with a few more candle holder lamps around the room, and some poufs and some rugs and you have yourself a lovely harem, all you need to do is fill it with sexy men :)

Justin Bieber is one of the cockiest douchebags to ever rise to fame.


also I would love to send you a post card :)
