the_rev Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 So today I finally bought a chested drawers, (actually someone gave it to me for free) and on the top I put all my statues and stuff and bought a kneeler at St. Vincent DePaul store (thrift store) and so that area is going to be my little personal chapel or shrine. I will post pictures soon! It looks really neat, seriously! Yours in Christ, Eddie Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christie_M Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I would like one really bad! but I share a room with my sisters, so it's a little hard to find a space. but that doesn't stop me from prayer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StColette Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I have a side table, pretty good size, that has all my small statues, my great grandmother's Bible, my candles, crosses, and rosaries And an uncompleted oil painting of the Sacred Heart.

Fidei Defensor Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 The top of my dresser is completely full of statues, holy cards, crosses, a Bible and a few rosaries. Then, it climbs up the wall and onto my shelves which have holy cards and stuff, and on my wall, I have a beautiful painting of Jesus, and a cross that holds a candle. I even have a JPII corner, which i have a picture hanging of him, and a small shelf below it with some pictures of him, and a candle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForHimAlone Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 The top of one of my small bookcases has my Sacred Heart and Our Lady of Lourdes statues, along with a picture of Saint Faustina, a plaque of Pope John Paul II, and a St. Clare votive candle. Above that I have a bulletin board covered with pictures of saints, which I like to refer to as my "Communion of Saints." Then scattered about my room I've got tons of other statues and a 20" crucifix. It's where I like to spend my time best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fides_et_Ratio Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I'm growing one.. in the process of re-doing my room and such and so looking for a good set-up. I had a simple one going before (and still now) but I'd like something a little more intentional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franciscanheart Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 i have to have two areas. one is more of a study area but it also has small crosses and a rosary but mainly holds books and prayer booklets and such. then i have another one that holds an icon and crucifix and candles and the like. that's in my room and then my family has an area in our living area that has our statues and what not.

ofpheritup Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 On the wall above my dresser I have pictures one of a Monstrance and on each side a picture of the Sacred Heart and on the other side the Immaculate Heart of Mary. On top of the dresser I have a candle. A statue of the Pieta, a small paperweight globe (reminder to pray for the world) a picture of Jesus, a statue of the Baby Jesus in the manger and my prayer pot. PRAYER POT ?? Yes, it is just a little ceramic pot that I picked up at a Dollar Store. Now when people ask me to pray for them I put their name in the pot. Before I thought of the "prayer pot" idea I would forget. No matter where I have lived I have ALWAYS set up some sort of altar. I have been doing this since 1976. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franciscanheart Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 yeah ive had something like this since i was about 11 or 12. it didnt feel right to have these things hidden or buried. so when i redecorated my room i made sure to make space for all of my special treasures.
