This little “very inexpensive” plastic nativity has been around since my kids were little. It’s lost an animal in the front. The whole thing (including animals) is pretty small and I’ve looked everywhere but haven’t been able to find a replacement.
After all, this is still a reminder of what Christmas is really all about.
What lovely decorations! Your house looks so festive and cosy for Christmas! Good luck finding the nativity! I really wanted to add another one to our collection this year – we already have 3 but it was hard to find a nice one. maybe next year!
Hope that you are having a wonderful Christmas week 🙂
thanks Mica, maybe you can tell I love Christmas decorations.
I think my little ‘old’ nativity is pretty much out of date these days – but I’ll keep looking.
Hope you have a really Merry Christmas – it’s always more fun with little kids around.

Just recently Rob bought a new nativity set because ours was so old and dilapidated!! I love how festive your place looks Iris.

Thanks Jodie. You might be able to tell that I love Christmas decorations.
I have several other nativity sets, but that one remains my favorite.

What a sweet nativity. I have one that I have had for years, too. It is wooden dolls. My daughter loved it so much that she bought herself and her sister one last year for Christmas.
Wish we had some of those mola ornaments. We bought molas and framed them but they don’t fit in just any decor. Wish I had one now for my guest bedroom but I have given them all to my daughter.
Oh, I love my molas – I also have a framed elephant (of course I do), framed birds, and a stuffed elephant. I’m so glad a got the little Christmas ornament too. Since my decor is ‘early iris’ they work just fine. I have two prints from Panama framed and in the GRUB room. I need to take pictures of them.
My little nativity has such sweet memories.

Beautifully decorated for Christmas!
Thanks Eileen. I’m enjoying it.
