There are many ways to arrange the icon corner. The items may go into a glass-enclosed cabinet, on open shelves, and/or hung on the walls above a small table.
no edit summary
If possible, locate the [[icon]] corner on an east wall of the house so that you face east while praying. According to Orthodox belief, [[Christ]], the light of the world, will come again from the East. Choose a relatively private area conducive to [[prayer]] but accessible to all of the family. Some people prefer an upstairs halllway; others select the parents' bedroom. The choice is yours.
