Instructions No. 1681     Difficulty: Beginner  Working time: 45 Minutes

Among the most popular Christmas decorations are clearly Nativity. Arranged on a chest of drawers or a windowsill, the cute little figures create a direct Christmas feeling. In this manual we show you how to arrange the small Nativity figures can put a roof over your head.

First the birch branches are connected to form a crib. For this, the lower square is first glued together with the help of a hot glue gun. In the corners further trunks are now vertically inserted and likewise fixed with hot glue. Now wrap the horizontal and vertical branches with Jute ribbon and tie this one tight. This will help to stabilize it.
For the roof, glue two 90-degree angles from two trunks each with hot glue. These are then placed on another trunk. To stabilize everything again well with Jute ribbon wrap and knot. The resulting roof is placed on the substructure and knotted tightly again.

For the brightly shining poinsettia, the Vellum paper a star twice cut out and sewn together. As an alternative to sewing, you can also apply a thin layer Handicraft glue apply to the edges of the star and allow to dry well. Leave a small gap at the top, into which you insert the lights of a light chain. The rest of the transparent cable as well as the switch can be wound around the top of the trunk to fix it

Last but not least, you can arrange Nativity figures as you like and decorate it with miniature fir trees, some Straw and moss.
