Vintage Christmas Monday!

Boy's Nativity set!

I bought this set for the boys and wanted them to be able to pick up the figures and play with them, therefor , Plastic(WITH GOLD ACCENTS!).

There's a story here!

See the clay donkey next to baby jesus?

He was added to the nativity after we all watched "Nester the Long Eared Donkey".

Everyone was in tears when it was over because it was so sweet! So I made a long eared donkey and there he is!

Tag for Dragonsdream!

Image from Dover Designs!

I did some cropping then enhanced the red, then did a little impressionist brushing.

I wanted to make the waves and the crane's feathers similar in feeling.

Cranes are a symbol of good luck.
