NATIVITY CRIB COMPETITION CHRISTMAS 2011
We won the crib competition! A lot of love and thought went into it's design and work. I painted the background and papermache the mountains. Made the bridge, wall and houses. We used Jenice's present 'St Joseph's Church', a twig from my dad's vine was varnished and placed on the mountain to symbolize the cross. A torch was held behind a hole on the background representing the Star of Bethlehem. Christmas lights lit houses and crib. We had been collecting blue glass pebbles all summer from the beach shore. Lots of members of the family contributed to the collection of pebbles when they found out I was after them lol. I was hoping to fill a bottle with all the blue stones,which I did and thankfully had enough for the river in our Nativity.
