Haiti Nativity Scene

I wanted to share with you my favorite nativity scene that I have. A couple of years ago I started collecting nativity scences from other countries, so when my fabulous husband took a trip to Haiti in early 2010 he purchased this set below for me without me even suggesting it. It's stored in this bag:


When you take it out of the bag it's packed very well like this:


Each piece is wrapped in either corn husks or bananna leaves (not sure):


The pieces are made out of some sort of hard clay and hand painted:


Here's what it looks like all set up:


Don't you love it? What an awesome hubsband, huh?

  1. That was sweet of your hubby to purchase the Nativity Scene. What a neat idea to start collecting them from around the world!
