Christmas Designs

In the Barn

Neville Lauridsen from the Salvation Army Palmerston North in New Zealand brings us this barnyard nativity set.

They built this Christmas set with hired black drapes and old weathered timber from a farm. Pretty inexpensive…just took a lot of time and some great lighting!

I’ve always been a bit jealous of Jesus’ birth. Whenever I was acting up and my mom asked me “What, were you raised in a barn?”…I always wished I could answer, “Yes.”

    Is the picture of the barn stage scene copyright free. Can I use it as a backdrop to a video to appear on Facebook?
