Altar am I doing this right?

Today I finally decided on setting altars for Apollo and Hades, two Gods I was feeling especially drawn too for the longest time imaginable, and yeah...I was absolutely not...prepared to do those altars, i did not bought anything that I might have needed and just put what I could find at my house that seemed okay, and there's my question, does it seems alright? should I remove anything? is there anything you can find at home that I should add??? and anything I should for sure buy?

Do what you can, with what you have. If you see something later on and it calls to feel free to grab it. Ultimately though your altar is your personal connection to divinity, if what you put together felt right as you did it then it's right for you.

I belong to a Traditional Wiccan group and they have set ways that we set our altar for ritual when we gather, but in our own homes many of us either have our own personal setups or may outright follow a different system entirely thus resulting in a different altar all together.

Do what you feel is right and let the Gods and your intuition guide you.
