Driftwood Nativity

Aloha Crafters ~

Today's Idea & Inspiration is a Nativity my d.s.l. Mark and I made from driftwood we picked up at the beach.

Supplies:

• Driftwood
• Hot Glue Gun
• Glue Sticks

Instructions:

1. Take a walk on the beach ;p... pick up driftwood (we picked up 2 grocery bags)
2. Sift through driftwood, looking for wood shaped like the figures you wish to include in your Nativity, pillars, shingles, etc.
3. Chose 2 long pieces to use for the "foundation", the flatter the better.
4. Build a "ladder" with the 2 long pieces and short ones across, glue together for the floor.
5. 4 "pillars" can then be glued to the corners of the floor.
6. 4 pieces for the roof line, 1 for the ridgepole.
7. Shingle roof as desired.

8. Adhere nativity figures to floor.

Happy Crafting!
