Ready for NEXT Christmas – Or Is It Too Soon?

September 18, 2020 by 4g3nd4

I saw one of these on a visit to Hardwick Hall a National Trust property in Nottinghamshire during their Christmas build up last year. The house was decorated to illustrate how it would have been prepared for Christmas. I saw their nativity scene and thought “I could make one of those”. So I did, although I didn’t quite get the lighting finished for this year. Hence not photographing it until now. Quite chuffed with how it’s turned out.
