Cadet, our clay artisan, has finished his first creche scene. Any suggestions? He'll be making the background more like a shed, adding the color blue to Mary and brown to Joseph... And, NO, that is not macaroni trim. Those are small, clay logs that surround the cave entrance!

I think it's great just how it is! What are the dimensions?
I agree. It is very nice. Any further development or plan to get these to the states in some kraft shop. Or Konnie's Korner?
These could be great fund raisers for next Christmas if they can produce a bunch and get them to the states.

I think it's great! Here are some thoughts:
Are the pieces movable? I think single pieces have more flexibility and allow people to arrange the figures as they like. Also, it will allow people to add pieces over the years.
More animals may help "make the scene"
Also a Haitian Christmas scene would be very unique . . like the winter scenes people make at Christmas.
Thanks for posting!
