I had an idea to create a quiet place in our home. a place for quiet reading, a place to go & be with God when the rest of the house is too noisy; too distracting. A place I can go for my early morning Bible study & a place for me to go at quiet time, when the girls hunker down in their room (somewhere where i cannot be distracted by chores, or emails!)
Today, I created that place. It was very simple & the whole family is pleased with the result.
In our tiny spare room, I hung a canopy from the ceiling
on the floor is a small rug, a basket of seasonal books & a selection of Tasha Tudor books.
I have added some of my Bible study aids to the children's bookcase
Here is my own personal Bible study basket
Here is a reading bag I have put together for my 'school' study
My journal, You Are Your Child's First Teacher & Heaven on Earth: A Handbook for Parents of Young Children
My cosy chair
Ssshhhh!

What a fabulous idea - I wonder if I can find a quiet space in my home, hmm, I'm not sure - will have a think.

That's wonderful that you've created a 'meditation place' in your home. You Are Your Child's First Teacher was such an inspirational book for me when my daughter was born.
not only a "a quiet place" but a sweet place too!
I love it!
Very peaceful, Lynn
Wow, that looks great! Did you make it?

Thank you everyone for your kind comments.
Brandy, I bought the canopy from Ebay. It was an Ikea one. It appealed to me, as it wasnt too pink & 'girly' (not that there isnt anything wrong with girly!)
