Default My New Icon Corner!

I'm pretty sure the pictures of it will appear with this post. Just thought I'd share my new Icon Corner. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks,
FKC

Lovely! May it strengthen your prayer life and help bring peace to your home!

In the picture with the close-up, forgive my ignorance, but I do have some questions.

1. What are the books (I assume one is the Bible)?
2. The small icon on the far left - who is that?
3. The skinny icon second from the right - who is that?
4. The icon on the far right - who is that?

Thanks!

Lovely icon corner of which you should be very proud. The only thing I see missing is a chotki from the Master Beadsman.

One is the Jordanville Prayer book on the left and the other is a Gospel Book
Far left is Tsar Nicholas II
The second one from the right is Michael the Archangel
The far right is Father Nicholas the Wonderworker

It's a Ruthenian Icon called the Weeping Icon of Marijapovch that is Wonderworking.

Did you get your icons blessed? The reason I ask is because of the icon of Our lady of Perpetual Help looks like its made by Monastery Icons and I hear they put all these hindu spells on them and stuff.
