For my altar I created and decorated 3 levels in honor of my Tía Juana. On the bottom layer, I covered it with a white cover and added Diet Dr. Peppers and almond Rocas which were her favorite. I added a candle and some blue and purple flowers. Those were her favorite colors from what I was told. Underneath, I added big purple flowers and a candle. On the second layer I covered a big box with a red cloth. I put marigolds and a ribbon from my tias memorial. In the middle I added a chalk board stand with her name. On the left side, I added a Mickey Mouse because Disneyland was her favorite place to be. All around I added her favorite soda because she was very well known for loving her soda and not allowing anyone to touch it. At the very top I added a big picture frame of her in order of it being her altar. Alexis Brito
