You can! You really can. Let me show you.
See? I've been Nativitying on my piano.
I usually keep the lid down on my piano that way I can poke stuff all over the top of it. That large floral is usually there all of the time and I just added a few other things.
See this little Nativity? Isn't it sweet? When I saw it I thought how islandy it was and it would just have to come home with me. That was a few years ago. Instead of a barn the little Holy family is enveloped by a palm tree.
Here's the sweet little Baby Jesus! It looks like He is singing a Note Song, don't you think?
How do you like my little sparkly trees? I found these at the dollar store and knew I had to have them too! I poked a couple of them over some skinny candlesticks so I could have different heights. Palm trees and Christmas trees! A great combination.
These little trees are so cute and I like how they look all staggered in height! I'm so talented to think of things like this you know! :)
Oh, this snap was just Reba (my camera) showing off! :)
Sweet little Jesus boy
They made you be born in a manger
Sweet little holy child
We didn't know who you were
Didn't know you'd come to save us Lord
To take our sins away
Our eyes were blind, we could not see
We didn't know who you were
Long time ago
You were born
Born in a manger Lord
Sweet little Jesus boy
The world treats you mean Lord
Treats me mean too
But that's how things are down here
We don't know who you are
You have told us how
We are trying
Master you have shown us how
Even when you were dying
Just seems like we can't do right
Look how we treated you
But please Sir forgive us Lord
We didn't know it was you
Sweet little Jesus boy
Born a long time ago
Sweet little holy child
We didn't know who you were
Uh oh...
I enlarged this really big so you could see my little Chloe Dawn peeping around at me while I sat up my vignette! I know she was telling me that she was neglected. I'll have to take care of that and hold her and give her a big ole hug! :)
I'm joining A Stroll Thru Life for Tablescape Tuesday,
Be a bunch of sweeties,

I'll leave you with a little Note Song~

Shelia, your Christmas tree is gorgeous, and I know you are delighting in the joy of decorating your home for the holidays. ;-)
ReplyDeleteShelia what a sweet little Nativity, and I love the little trees you added around it! Martina
ReplyDeleteWow, I got to come back and first be knocked off my feet by your header. Do you think you should do a header post?!?! That thing rocks, girl! Now I do love your little nativity and baby Jesus singing on your piano, and I think a palm tree is great, what do we know but that they may have had one there that night. Love your staggered trees from the Dollar Store, really complete your vignette. But what about that header, I'm all about that header for Christmas! It.is.gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMary
You ARE so very talented! I love your piano all "dolled up" for the holidays! That little manger is adorable and love the TREES! XO, Pinky
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful piano! I like how you decorated it for Christmas too. I used to have a piano like that when I was little and enjoyed playing it. It was passed down from my grandmother to us. It has since been sold, but I always remember it. Your nativity is very pretty too.
ReplyDeleteI think you just coined a new word!!! Yes, you are sooooo talented and clever too!!! Love the display, very special....hugs...cleo
ReplyDeleteThat little nativity set is very tropical or even "deserty"... where did you find it.
ReplyDeleteI just know that with all your talent you will be sharing many more Holiday treasures... just don't let little Chloe Dawn feel neglected.
You can bring her over to my blog... to party at my Christmas Pet Parade :)
xoxo Bunny Jean
Love you hoilday decorations. The Nativity set is so sweet and I just love the little trees they look so good at the different heights. Blessing Trish
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great way to beautify your piano. Just in time and consistent with the real spirit of the season.
ReplyDeleteShelia, your piano is simply beautiful all decked out for Christmas. What a sweet little Nativity and those trees are just adorable.
ReplyDeleteShelia, the Navity scene on the piano is just lovely. Oh my goodness, your Christmas tree is breathtaking. I love it in the foyer and how you can see it from your seating area. Your home is so lovely. I look forward to seeing more of your decorations.

What a beautiful Nativity. I love the dollar store trees too. I can't wait to see what else you do for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteCandy
I love seeing all different kinds of nativties. I have three.
ReplyDeleteYour little Nativity is so precious... just like you!

I love your sweet little tropical Nativity. Thanks for spreading your Christmas joy.
ReplyDeleteDifferent nativities are one of my favorite things at Christmas. I display a large tan paper mache one but the last couple of years have been collecting the vintage Italian chalk ware pieces. I have lots of sheep (lol) but still need a wise man and shepherd. Have a wonderful week Sheila.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteLove this! It brings me memories of putting it together with my Mom...
Gabriela
Chloe looks so sweet.
ReplyDeleteYour nativity is so unusual, I have never seen one like that before. looks great and ready for some songs to be played for the season.
I think Chloe Dawn loves the piano vignette because it is stunning!!!
ReplyDeleteI love nativities. I had a pretty one from Mexico, but it was lost during a move.

That is just too sweet on the piano. I have a couple of Nativity scenes that I place around the house. I love this one of yours...enjoy playing with your sweet Chloe Dawn.
ReplyDeletehugs, Linda
Hi Shelia,
ReplyDeleteYou are so talented and you create the most beautiful vignettes. I adore your Nativity scene and I love those Christmas trees. Love the piano, too, wish we had one...maybe one day. =) Thanks for sharing! xo ~Liz
What a sweet little nativity scene, and cute doggy. Pat
ReplyDeleteShelia,
ReplyDeleteYour Christmas header looks terrific. I wish I knew how to tweak my header or make a collage.
Your tree is gorgeous. I love how you can see it from where you blog. So welcoming. The photo setting that makes the lights look like stars is beautiful.
The Nativity on the piano is lovely.
It looks beautiful Shelia!
ReplyDeleteMolly is sending Christmas decorating hugs to Chloe Dawn.:-)
What a cute little teeny tiny nativity! You must have some Christmas everywhere you look by now!
ReplyDeleteYour Nativity is just beautiful and looks so pretty on your shiny piano. Love the vignette! I have to check out the Dollar Store for those trees...they are SO cute!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
Shelia,
ReplyDeleteAdore your Nativity on the piano! Sweet Little Jesus Boy is one of my dearest to heart Christmas Songs!
Fondly,
Pat

The palm tree nativity is delightful and Jesus is with us all and that shows that don't you think? Now I must visit your tree. hugs♥O
ReplyDeleteHi Shelia *hugs*
ReplyDeleteI don't have a piano to do that too...hmmmm...but I really love the idea. The nativity scene is lovely and the sparkly trees are so nice. I will have to look out for them also.
have a great day
Judi
I ADORE it !
ReplyDeleteDon't forget sweet Chloe Dawn !
Love,
Lorraine
Ohhhh I am gonna set out my Nativities just as you did. I love that!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Debbie
You are adorable, and so is your darling nativity!
ReplyDeleteXOXO,
Anne
Just cannot have too many nativities!
ReplyDeleteGod bless...Betty @ Country Charm
I love the little Nativity - especially since it is kind of "islandy!". I just love all things tropical! The piano is a great place to display a vignette! One of these days I hope to get one. My son has been taking keyboard lessons for 1 1/2 years and I think a piano will be the next step. Beautiful job!
ReplyDelete-Shelley
Hi Sheila, you sure have been busy and everything looks gorgeous. You have a great ability to know what looks beautiful and festive. Your piano looks so pretty and I love what you did with your tree. I haven't seen that stuff(mesh). Smile. We have very limited shopping here in our small town. I also think your yoyo tree on the pillow is awesome. Even I could do that. I really enjoyed catching up with your Christmas posts.
ReplyDeleteWe have been in Florida for Thanksgiving and just got home again on Monday night. I have been decorating like crazy and loving it!
I'll be sharing soon. L think your Chloe dawn is so cute.
Hugs, Jeanne
Sheila,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely vignette on the top of your piano!!
So festive and warm!!
Hugs,
Debbie
