Nativity Scenes

I've been collecting nativity scenes for years now.  We pulled them out Saturday so I thought I'd share some with you.  Every year I add to my collection.  This first one is one that I just bought last week at my favorite thrift shop.  I love these figures... and the stable.  I think the figures are plastic.  But they feel a little waxy.  If anyone has more information about this set please leave a comment!
 Here's the next set.  It was in a bag of Christmas "stuff".  They are TINY!  To get an idea of the scale, they're sitting on the ledge above the fireplace, which is one brick wide.  The wise men are on one side of the mantle, and Baby Jesus is on the other side.

Glenn set the others on the window ledge.  I'm not sure if this is a good idea... the cat has already knocked them over twice.  Reminded me of Mr. Bean's Christmas!

There are more... I just didn't get them all photographed.  And I'm not sure where my other wise men are.  Jordy put them all in a box last year -- since they weren't at the stable she didn't want to set them up with the scenes.  :-)  I guess they're still up in the attic looking for the Baby.  We did more decorating Saturday so I'll have more photos later.

That's funny - I collect them too and didn't realize you did! Many of mine will not be out this year, thanks to Rebekah. I don't want them damaged!
