Trash to Treasure: A New Look for a Nativity

Welcome to Trash to Treasure! Please link you new to you treasures for us all to see using Mr. Linky at the bottom of this post.

For this week's treasure, I would like to show you one of the ways I displayed a Nativity. This tarnished silver plate platter came from an estate sale. At the end of the sale, the platter had not sold so my son who was helping with the sale brought it home. I used moss that came from a huge box of craft supplies I got for 25 cents this past summer.
My daughter decided a few years ago she wanted to start collecting Fontanini Nativity pieces. I started by giving her the Holy family. Later I bought her the stable, and it came with a Holy family-so I kept this one for myself. This is one of 5 Nativities I have scattered through the house, and for now it is my favorite. It is on a little lamp table close to the door and is one of the first things I notice when I walk in the room.

There is something about the simplicity of it that I really like!
