Angel Gabriel is missing as needs some surgery to reattach the head
The figures are getting brittle

My dad made the crib - it all flat packs and slots together

Love it

I am so jealous 🙈 I have been after this one and no joy unfortunately. They pop up on e bay every so often but I always miss it !
It does look beautiful and it is fantastic for getting children interactive with the nativity story 👍🏻

I bought the Lakeland one as a christning gift when it came out
My sister has the one that was in my parents home for over 60 years and rightfully so
As it was hand carved by one of our uncles for her first Christmas she was born November 11th
My favourite memory of a nativity scene was+when I got a job as a manager in my first nursing home I couldn’t believe they didn’t have one me my mum sister and the olds we have here spent 3 days knitting one from a people’s friend ancient pattern and toilet roll tubes and Dad making a stable they still use it and I’ve knitted a fair few since
I’ve also got a very tiny tree decoration one we bought on our honeymoon that goes on the memory corner on our tree

This is mine which we got in a post Christmas sale from the Coop about 25 years ago.

I have seen a few that I really like but typically the ones I want are extremely expensive.
I have just shown my husband the stable I want and he is going to make it for me. I have seen sone lovely figures at a note reasonable price.
Unfortunately won’t arrive in time for this Christmas though.

This is mine, I've had it about 12-15 years, my children never liked it and to be honest I think I'm getting a bit fed up with it now too!
