Beautiful Nativity scenes. I especially like the one from Rome.
Enjoy them, as I am sure you will.

A wonderful collection. I like the one from Rome too!

I had a one we got as a wedding gift. As I say the word "had". A few years back in one young arm swoosh a beautiful Nativity scenes stood, seconds later pieces flying in the air scattered broken on the floor. All as my heart stopped beating I managed to still smile.

Our house is not child proof and sometime I think I should post this kind of sign at our door. Smile... xo

Wow! What a wonderful idea! I hope you display all of them or maybe you rotate them year by year.
Don't forget you could knit a set! LOL!

Love your collection!! They are all so different and all lovely!
There is wonderful store in Nyack,NY, called Hickory Dickory Dock, they sell all things Christmas and clocks! A magical place, where I often get candles and sometimes treat myself to a new ornament. The owners go every year to Germany Crafts markets to buy most beautiful pieces.

We also collect nativity scenes and have several large. Unfortunately we can't place them all.
We have also Nativity by Jim Shore.
