Kitschy Kool: Volume 2: Nativity Sets

So I realized this week what our tree was missing, a Nativity Scene! I'm not really sure I want a traditional carved or ceramic one, so I went on the search for a kitschy-cool nativity set... what? Jesus, Mary & Joseph can be "kool" too :-)


So here are my finds so far:

I mean, what's not to love here! You all know my feelings on felt this season, so what a great addition:

Ok, maybe I just love toys, but isn't this cute...err, I mean kitschy kool:

Of course, last but not least, I could not leave out my favorite site Etsy ! And look what I found in their vintage listings, a 1950's cardboard nativity set:

Ok, so time to vote, which of these kitschy kool nativity sets belong under my tree?

Do you remember the old-school Little People? The ones they used to make but are exactly the same size as a child's trachea, so they changed the design? You might be too young;) Anyway, I wonder if they ever made a nativity scene out of those. How funny and random that you can find a Little Person baby Jesus.

About Me

I'm a St. Louis native, but I have been living in Chicago since 2005 and am loving every windy minute of it. I enjoy cooking (more-so eating), home decorating and really anything creative. I'm a supporter of DIY & handmade goods, a fledgling foodie and a connoisseur of kitsch. I spend my days filling online shopping carts, emptying them and repeating the process all over again. Most of all I love spending time with my husband, Dave, our first child, Claire and my dog, Louie.
