Away in a Manger.....
This is my vintage nativity as it is displayed in our living room now (the photos should all be clickable to enlarge).
I have collected these pieces through the years; they are not a matching set.
Some of them are chalkware or plaster, a few even plastic.
I placed a star "bulb" on this candleholder, to represent the star that guided the seekers to Baby Jesus.
Sweet little Baby....
Rejoicing angels.....
I love the way Joseph can't take his eyes of off Baby Jesus, and Mary looks so happy and adoring....
