I have a glitzy. glittery nativity set. It is one piece and it shines. I put in a low trough container with a string of beaded lights, glittery snowflakes, beaded ornaments and a lot of bling. I know this isn't how the story goes, but it is pretty. It sits on our dining room table and since we sit around the table a lot it is front and center for us. A beautiful reminder of a beautiful story.
Years ago I bought our stockings at a drug store in Quincy. They were sewn together but each one needed to have the stitching added. I'm not really very handy with a needle and thread but I muddled though and completed the project. I added our names free hand using a needle and thread. I ironed on the stars, trees and candy canes, then I stitched an outline around them. I used most of the stars on Hubby's stocking. I sewed on embellishments, including a nativity set made of buttons on Hubby's stocking.
Again, our nativity sets remind us of our dear Savior's birth.
