I'm sure some folks out there have some really nice nativity sets, maybe old heirlooms, elegant styles, homemade treasures, or something with a regional flavor. I would like to see and I'll bet others would to. And they don't have to be anything fancy. They're all special.

Mine are nothing fancy, but since no one else has created a thread like this that I can see, I'll start.

This was one of those kits that comes with plastic pellets that you put in a metal frame and bake in the oven. I don't know if they still sell those, but they were a big thing about 25 years ago. This one my grandma got as a gift from one of her Sunday school students. She had me make it for her. In later years, she let me have it. Besides the nativity scene shown here, there are also four separate farm animals. You are supposed to put a candle behind it, but I have a string of lights behind it.
