How to set up the crib

To set up the crib ( or creche) it is an art . An art that is slow, patient and passionate .

The crib will be set up , and then after almost 2 montfs go back into the cupboards : a long period of sleep before a rebirth at the following christmas

So to make a creche you need :

mass from the wood

santons : holy family and the Pantheon of the santons of Provence

the background : building, painting despiting a landscape

some accesories :brige, fountains , "oratoire"

Well and on the beautiful night between the 24 th and the 25 th , The littlle Jesus will be there too

It looks beautiful.
I have a few santons which I bought in Provence a few years ago.

Merry Christmas.
