Merry Christmas to all the home solutions family, today I want to share the experience we had in the making of our nativity scene.
Since we were little we have been taught the tradition of making the nativity scene at Christmas time, which we enjoy very much, since it makes us feel in a familiar moment and where we let ourselves be carried away by creativity.
This December 23, 2024 my sister Maryhec Santos, and myself Erick Delgado, also known as @erick836 for this beautiful platform, will begin to build the nativity scene.
The ornaments are always kept in a specific room to keep them safe, and to prevent some pieces from being damaged, as well as certain parts of the nativity scene deteriorate as time goes by.
Taking out the ornaments to start assembling the nativity scene.
My sister decided that the living room would be a good place to do it, we started by choosing the papers of the crib that we were going to use, and then we started with the base structure, and for that we looked for some thin branches to try to make a mountain effect.
With the help of a silicon gun we start gluing some ends of the paper to prevent it from moving with the winds, and at the moment we are going to start placing the pieces, since most of them are somewhat heavy for the base of the crib structure.
After gluing a few ends of the paper together, we realized that we needed something underneath to hold more weight, since the crib has several pieces.
We went looking around the house to see what we could use as a support, and among them we found: Boxes, pieces of anime, regular sized stones.
Now with all these materials we are ready to finish the structure of the crib, we had some problems in the process, as one of the branches hit the window, so we had to take off some things to rearrange them and make them more stable.
After a long time thinking about how to solve this little problem, we hit the nail on the head and were able to complete the entire base structure of our nativity scene.
In the following image we can see how it looks like.
Then we were going to proceed to place the pieces, but we came up with an idea to make a bridge.
We got creative, and started cutting pieces of cardboard and taking pieces out of it to glue them together.
After we had all the pieces ready to start gluing, we realized we were out of silicone, so I went down to the nearest store to buy some.
I took the picture on the way, because I forgot to take it at the store.
When we arrived at the house we immediately started gluing the pieces of the bridge, we were eager to see how the result would look like, since it was the first time we added a bridge to our nativity scene.
We started gluing piece by piece, since we wanted to make some kind of railings on the sides. At first we thought that the silicone would not hold each piece in place, but it turned out to be a complete success.
As an extra decoration we placed a kind of green garland on the sides, it looks a bit like the material used for Christmas trees.
We finally finished the bridge, and it looked like this.
After we had our bridge, we proceeded to glue it with the silicon to our crib.
We proceed to glue the bridge with the silicon to our crib in a place where it can stand out and be sustainable.
Now we started to place all the pieces and we got this result.
The manger was almost ready, but it's not over yet.
We realized that some of the lights were not working, so we decided to go downstairs and buy some new ones to make our crib look much better.
Now we proceeded to put our new lights on them to finish our beautiful nativity scene.
We spent a lot of time to finish it, but it was completely worth it, we were very satisfied with the result.
As we make our nativity scene as a family, we remember that the true magic of Christmas is in love and togetherness 👯
Thank you so much for getting to this part of the reading.✨
I used the deepl translator since my language is Spanish.
Tal cual dices, la navidad consiste en la unión con quienes queremos, sea cocinando, armando el pesebre o las demás decoraciones, o solo reunirse para compartir.
Quedó muy bonito tu pesebre.
Así mismo es, la navidad consiste en unión, me alegra que te haya gustado. Saludos..
¡Quedó hermoso! y el pesebre debe ser nuestro centro porque representa el verdadero significado de la Navidad "El nacimiento de nuestro niño Jesús". Felices fiestas 🎄.
Me alegra mucho que te haya gustado, tal cual como lo dices, la verdad siempre disfrutamos hacer nuestro pesebre. Felices fiestas✨
muy bonito te quedo!
Muchas gracias, me alegra mucho que te haya gustado.Felices fiestas...
Guao es un pesebre enorme!! Les quedó realmente lindo.
En casa no tenemos la tradición del pesebre, pero desde niña me han encantado esos pueblos diminutos y el de ustedes esta muy bello.
El puente fue una adición perfecta.
Lindas fiestas
Muchas gracias, ya que no tienen la tradición, igual los disfrutan al verlo en otros lugares, la verdad es que a mi tambien me encanta,me alegra mucho que te haya gustado. Felices fiestas...
