I'm joining in Charlotte and Ginger's Spiritual Sunday today and sharing some of my Nativity collection. For more inspiration, go here.
It is displayed on my yellow rose tea cart in the dining room.
I started collecting Nativities many years ago.
I only buy the ones that are a bit unusual, and inexpensive!
Such as this one,
it was only $9.99 at Walmart a few years ago.
It is displayed on my old sewing machine
with my grandmother's antique clock.
I haven't found a new Nativity this year, but
I bought two last year 20% off at Hallmark:
This one is a wood-like material, and Joseph
is 14 inches tall. I like the big cow and sheep with them
It is displayed on top of my tall doll curio in the family room.
The flash makes the glitter on the fruit too shiny:
A better picture of the fruit.
The second one from Hallmark is also in the family room:
I liked this one because it has the three kings.
Joseph is 11 1/2 inches tall.
I have two all white Nativities, this one
is displayed on the tea tray table in the living room.
It has a pearlized finish. The other white one is used as
a centerpiece on the tablescape (go here.)
I used my gold mercury glass on the bottom shelf:
This pillow has Madonna and Child on it:
Also in the living room is this framed Christmas card:
I sent these out years ago, and framed one for us!

Here's another Italian Nativity, but this one I won on Ebay!
It is white with touches of gold:
I bought this one at Hobby Lobby a couple of
year's ago, it was half price!
It is displayed on the hall tree in the foyer.
I just love the detail on it:
Also in the living room is this Nativity display in a cloche:
I participated in Marty's Cloche Party Friday,
Go here to see other Nativities in cloches, such as:
These small ones are displayed on my muffin table
Top left is just Baby Jesus in a cloche:

I hope you enjoyed seeing some of my Nativity collection. I will continue to share my Christmas decorations and more Nativities before Christmas.Nativity in a wire cloche on a wire cake plate

His purpose was love....
His reason was you...

Merry Christmas!

I love all your nativity scenes, Katherine. Thank you so much for visiting and for your sweet comment about my song. I think maybe someone had unchecked the auto play at the site. It seems to work now.
Blessings,
Cathy
So lovely.
You have such beautiful nativities, Katherine! I love them all...they all represent our beloved Savior, and they are so precious a reminder of how He came into the world as the spotless Lamb of God to take our sin and give us eternal life. Incredibly wonderful!
God bless,
Mary

WOW You have some truly beautiful nativities. I love them all but I think I especially like the one from Wal Mart, and the 3 little angles, and the one on your tablescaspe is just soo pretty. And how neat to have one all the way from Italy. What a wonderful thing to collect. Have a good week. Blessings to you, Debbie
Katherine, all of your nativity figures are just stunning and you have displayed them all so beautifully. Each one looks like a special work of art. Thanks for sharing and thanks again for joining the cloche party, I so enjoyed it. Hugs, Marty
I will never tire of seeing the Nativity Scenes in all it's beauty. There are so many different ones - I collect them too...although my house and area is tiny, and I have three boys in this tiny area - I must limit myself :)
Thank you for sharing yours with us.

Hi, Katherine,
I enjoyed seeing all your beautiful nativities. You are are really showing the real meaning of Christmas in your home. Your cloche displays are beautiful. I have to say my favorite one is the nativity your husband brought you from Italy. :)

Enjoy this joyous season!
~Warmly, ~Melissa :)
I love all your nativities. I especially like the display in the etagere.
Hello dear Katherine:-)
My apologies for not visiting much the last week or so, been getting all my Christmas preparations done and hardly any time for the computer except to post! Now that I'm pretty much done, I can play again:-)
I soooo love all of your nativities, how precious they all are. So many different types that I've never seen before and I also love the way you've displayed them all. Beautiful! xoxo
The Nativity scene in your header is beautiful. I really enjoyed seeing them in the cloches. You do have all of them displayed so nicely it is hard to chose a favorite. Thank yu for sharing your collections
