I’m not sure if you guys know this about me but among others things I am the pre-school Sunday school teacher at my church. It’s really one of the most fun things I have ever done at church because every week I get to be blown away by incredible cuteness. For Advent this year we decided to make our very own Nativity set…out of water bottles. People at church loved it so much that it got a place of honor in the sanctuary. The kids were thrilled. My favorite part is the camel…he’s a two water bottle figure!

What a wonderful idea! I follow a blogger who promised to use only upcycled materials for her quilt tops and other projects I should introduce you to each other!

Preschoolers are the best students! Love your Nativity. The children will remember it long after they have forgotten all about store bought ones. Am glad your Church recognized it and placed it in the Sanctuary.

What a clever idea! I can imagine how much fun the little (and not so little!) kids had constructing this beautiful. Activity scene.

This may well be the sweetest nativity I've every seen! Love it! I collect nativities and this one is a treasure for sure. Would you mind if a post a picture of it on my blog with a link back to your post about it on your blog? Please let me know.

Oh, I can see why the kids like it!! The two bottle camel! I had to teach the lesson on anointing the feet, and serving some sort of fruit--I can't remember exactly--we laid on blankets on the floor (everyone reclined on the floor, no tables like now)--rubbed lotion on our feet--and ate figs. Of course the minister choose to spend a LOT of time in our classroom that morning.

Priceless. I would not doubt for one second that this is how Mary and Joseph and visitors actually looked after their journey. You should have that photo made into a poster. Bless your church members for recognizing how special this is. Merry Christmas!
