How can I build shrines in my house?
I bought the land from the steward at Highmoon Hall in Morthal, so now I own the Windstand Manor. I have just built the main and the entry halls, they are completely decorated.
I want to have every possible shrine in my cellar. I built every single object that can be built in the basement.
The last object I built was the shrine base, but I cannot build any shrine because the workbench doesn't show any. I used the answer given by kotekzot to this question, but it hasn't worked.
What can I do?
My last save was more than 15 levels ago.
I'm playing on Xbox 360.

This might be a bug encountered but not known to the WIKI. Here are ways to fix it.
Fixing the Problem
Download the Unofficial Hearthfire Patch to fix bugs.
Try to reload any saves, or save and reload on yourself. Also try waiting.
Use cheats to remove and add the workbench.
The bug might occur in one or more land houses. Try to do it in the Dawnstar Manor or Falkreath manor to see if it works.
If those don't help your question, then you'll have to live in your Manor without shrines.

Answer 2
I'm on a PS3 with just the Hearthfire DLC installed as extra. My shrine is in the basement of Lakeview Manor. I had all the items to build all the shrines but NONE showed on the menu when at the workbench.
The problem is that you cannot carry ANY item needed for any shrine that is Stolen. If even one item in a group of non-stolen items is stolen (say, you have 19 iron ingots and one stolen) then ALL of the required items may be ignored and no options to create the shrines will list at the work bench. They won't even be there greyed out.
The solution is to dump everything you are carrying except for what is needed for a single shrine. Then make sure each item is NOT marked 'Stolen' and then go to the workbench. You should then see the option to at least make that one shrine. You may also see the other shrines greyed out which use a common item to the shrine you are creating.
This means, of course, that you have to know what each shrine needs first. Look that up.
In my case, I had two amulets that were stolen. I had to sell them to a trader and then immediately buy them back to remove the 'Stolen' label. As well, I had a couple dozen copies each of the flawless gems required and had to sort through those to find the ones that were not stolen. And the iron and silver ingots were also a mix of crafted and stolen.
But once I had all the items 'label free' I was able to craft all the shrines!
Booyah!
Answer 3
Try removing and re-adding the workbench, and then look in misc. They should be there, otherwise reloading is the only option.
Answer 4
You have to have the amulets. Go down into your basement, and use the anvil. You can build them there.
