My library is a converted chapel and highly ornamented with stained glass windows, the original altar, decorated arches, a painted canvas ceiling of angels. Because of this I don't have a lot of space for other decorations. The circ desk is pretty bare because my assistant is there and she doesn't like stuff around. Besides, the boys always end up around my desk. On my desk I have: an African Violet sitting under my Ottlite, bamboo stems in a ceramic vase made by a former student in Art class (I need living things around me), a small easel that I use to display interesting quotes or cartoons about reading, libraries, character - currently "Do not footle lest you become a flaneur", a toy cardinal that chirps when pressed (our mascot), a Nancy Pearl action figure, a small statue of the Virgin Mary, an apple shaped stress ball, a ceramic bunny that will be replaced next week with a hen and rooster in spring outfits and in May with sports figures and other months with season appropriate figurines.
