It is a photo shot at a different angle than what I would normally do. I guess the story it tells is just the same. Merry Christmas to all my blogger friends.
This is a creche carved from olive wood branches that grow in Israel. The shop where it is sold has a basement full of wood with many people carving their wares. We were at the shop which was north of Bethlehem. They are Christian artists, wood carvers, with their shop in Muslim territory. We have quite a few items from the place. We bought a few things there three years ago and some people gifted us ornaments from the same place.
Thanks for stopping by today.

I love that second natural wood carved creche!
Merry Christmas to you and Della! The carvings are so pretty, I bet that is a fun shop to visit. We made the trip back to the woods today. Visitation is Monday, service Tuesday. We have to be back up north before Thursday morning, the roads were good today, a quiet Christmas for us.
Merry Christmas to you too!
