Recently I created a labyrinth at my church for a retreat we did. This was a little difficult because we had no space to create on. So I got online and did a search for labyrinths through church pews. I found one diagram that was hand drawn and semi-hard to follow, but I created this drawing of my labyrinth that I think is a little easier to follow. I also had to flip the original drawing to make it fit my needs a little better. I thought if anyone was interested in this, they wouldn't have to re-do the work. To make it a prayerful experience, I added themed quotes throughout the pews and some occasional pictures and statues (if room allowed). It was a big hit! We had about 70 people at the retreat and probably 50-60 of them did the labyrinth.
Set up time was probably about 2 hours since I had to lay and tape down footprints. It was also the first time I was doing it, so I was unsure what was going to work and what wasn't. I had to re-do a couple of things because the aisle were smaller than I thought, but in the end it worked out.
Key: The brown are the pews, the blue line is the path they took through the labyrinth. I used paper footprints lining the path to show them where to go. The red lines are areas that I blocked off to help them figure out where to go in case the foot prints got messed up. I just used ribbons across the pews for this. In the middle is a gold cross. I made that my focal point in the center of the labyrinth. We had a nice crucifix propped up on the floor and benches for people to sit and reflect on their experience (the small brown objects above and below the cross are the benches).
I have lots of materials that I used for this, including quotes and instructions, so if you're interested in any of this stuff, let me know.
