A Nativity For Every Taste

I love this time of year.

One of the things I adore about

this Season is

setting up the nativity.

My own is not quite ready

to show you yet~

It is cream colored porcelain

with gold trim.

So, although I am not showing

that one today

 I did discover

some others to share with you.

My header reads

A Nativity For Every Taste.

Well,

I'm betting not many of you have

seen

THIS NATIVITY!

It is a creation by

BayShore Cakes in Utah.

I mean..have you ever?

And speaking of TASTE~

How about a simpler

GINGERBREAD Nativity?

I think Jesus must be

crying cuz he has a red face..

There are elaborate rustic nativities

set up in yards~

And simple outdoor

painted cut outs.

From the lushness of this

beautiful nativity from

NellHillsblog

To the simple outlines in metal.

Or  how about one of those

grand old paintings?

Look at the Nativity

in a stained glass window..

Or...maybe, just maybe,  you like

 the Nativity

with a bit of humor thrown in.

And, perhaps, when you were a young

mother, like me,

without a lot of money to spend

on "breakables"

you created your own.

I stitched this in 1980,

when my kids were

tiny and now my youngest

daughter, Mimi, has claim to it.

It does need a good steam pressing,

doesn't it?  I'll get right on that!

But one of the BEST Nativities

ever is the one by

Fisher-Price.

It is made to be loved by kids..

Loved and enjoyed.

They can move the wise men

and the animals around

without fear of breaking them.

It has been our gift to

each family as they had

their first child.

If your grandkids are young and

they don't have a nativity

this is the one for them.

Make sure you get the one where the

angel lights up on top

and it plays music.

You'll be glad you did.

Oh..lest I forget..

What's that saying?

Wise Men still seek him?

Let me tell you...

If you GET the Fisher Price

nativity and let the kids

play with it~

You will be searching for

Jesus at least twice a day

after someone carts him off.

And that is a fact!
