A distressed, galvanized steel cake stand is used to display a pewter nativity set. |
My eldest daughter decorated with pewter, galvanized steel pieces and plaid textiles this year. Here is how she used a simple cake stand to display a Nativity scene. She used natural looking shredded grass paper to replace the "straw" in the manger vignette.
Joseph, Mary, Baby Jesus, a shepherd, sheep, an ox and two angels are all present at the Nativity. |
She split up the wisemen in the scene, because they came to visit Jesus while He lived and hid in Egypt with his parents. (He was about two.) Below you can see them walking through a galvanized steel village on the middle shelf of our Welsh cupboard. The cake stand and Nativity where positioned lower on the counter of the wooden display cabinet.
Left, you can see that she used silver leaves to represent trees in the background. Right, the manger scene on top of the cake stand. |
