How to create a prayer corner at home: a simple practical plan
A separate room is not required for a home prayer corner. A quiet area of the wall, one main image and a few objects that you actually use is enough.
1. Choose a place
A bedroom, a quiet part of the living room, a niche or a small console are suitable. It is important that the door does not block the space and that it is possible to stop without the constant movement of people.
2. Determine one visual center
It can be a cross or a religious picture, the subject of which is important for the family. Do not use dozens of small images at the same time.
3. Add items for prayer
- Bible or prayer book;
- rosary;
- safe soft lighting;
- one personal note or note with intention.
4. Take care of the height
The image should be visible from where you sit or pray. Above the console, it is better not to raise it close to the ceiling - the composition should look integral.
5. Check the light
Soft or side light is better for epoxy painting. A direct beam from the lamp can create a large glare.
Small apartment
A vertical picture and a narrow shelf can create a complete corner even on a small wall. If the housing is rented, use safe fastening methods according to the weight of the product.
What to avoid
The most common mistake is to turn the prayer space into a warehouse of decorative objects. Keep free space and access to the books you use.
