Large Outdoor Nativity Set

November 20, 2012

This is my original size. It is quite a bit larger than other nativity sets being sold on the internet but it’s my favorite size. It is big enough to really be seen and make that statement, without being too bulky or difficult to handle and store. I believe that “bang for the buck”, this is the best deal. I’ve made and sold almost 1000 nativities this size over the past four years, so I’ve got the process pretty streamlined now. I’m very proud to say that if you compare prices, you will find that this nativity set is less than half of what equally sized nativities are sold for even though the quality of this one is far superior.

Large Size Nativity Set, Nativity Scene Outdoor

Beautifully detailed large outdoor nativity silhouette,
made from the highest quality marine grade solid PVC available.
Designed and manufactured in the USA.
66.75″ wide x 60″ tall (to top of star) x 16″ deep.

For a discounted price and NO additional shipping cost, select any two of the items below to ship with your nativity.
(You can go to Additional Characters and add more items to your shopping cart, but I can’t fit more in the nativity box, so they will ship separately.)
Donkey ($45)
“Merry Christmas” ($18)
“Peace on Earth” ($18)
“Noel” ($30)
“Joy” ($30)

  • Shipped in a custom designed 52″ x 36″ x 3″ box that can be used for storage between the seasons. 
  • Made from 10mm & 16mm marine grade, PVC material. This should last long enough to become an heirloom. 
  • Can be assembled in just a few minutes or less.
  • No fasteners or screws of any kind are required. Joints slide together and are secured in place by 4 tie-down points and stakes hammered into your soil. Ropes & stakes are provided (but if your soil is particularly sandy or wet, you may need to get larger stakes).
  • Please note that I am limited on how many “Additional Characters” I can fit in the Large sized box. I can fit the angel, or the standing shepherd or any two of the Christmas Messages and donkey. Since it is more common for people who only wish to buy one extra character, to buy the donkey, I have offered the donkey at a discount here (rather than the angel or the standing shepherd). Long story short… please order what you want. If you order it on this page, my website will give you a discount. If you add it to your order on the Additional Characters page, I will squeeze what I can into your nativity box then ship the rest separately and refund you anything that my website overcharged you.

Christmas Greetings and Customs in France

Christmas Yule Log Cake, Nativity Scene Outdoor

Greeting: Joyeux Noel (Joyous Christmas)
Custom: How about thirteen desserts on Christmas Eve? In southern France, they serve a dessert to honor Jesus and the twelve apostles. One of these desserts is the Yule log which is a cake to represent the actual yule log which many people burn in their homes from Christmas Day until New Years Day for good luck.
