I found this nativity set at a thrift store for just over $3 . . .
and thought it might be fun to spray it with a bit of paint . . .
Turns out I was wrong . . .
it was way fun!

Great idea! I love how this simple project created something so stunning!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I have been thrifting for a Nativity set, too. there are some seriously ugly and scary ones out there ! Joseph is not supposed to look scary and mean! Painting them white or silver would really help. ~ Christie
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant! I looked forever (and spent too much) for one that fit our decor... Yours is clever and gorgeous! I pinned you for a future decor prompt. Thanks and Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeletehugs,
Leslie
I really love this idea and am sure that it will make its way into my Christmas decorations soon!
ReplyDeletewow! so shiny, but so much better than the original!

Not wrong, just the wrong color perhaps. If they were a creamy white they'd look like Lenox figurines. Worth it to take the risk. Good job. Jo @ Let's Face the Music
ReplyDeleteHi, you linked up under the ongoing giveaway linky at Bacon Time. The anything goes linky is Fri-monday and the winter linky is on the right side bar with pic link. I will delete it but hope you come back. I love nativity sets.
ReplyDeleteYou are cracking me up. I thought...how could you not love it? :) I have been looking for one of those large yard Nativity sets that are plastic and pretty ugly to spray paint. Thanks for sharing!
