Christmas Nativity Vignette and Chalk Paint

A wonderful group of nativity figures needed a base. A wicker edged tray had been sitting around for several months. Chalk paint was handy.

I love the special effects from PicMonkey (used Frost for the blur above).

Scrubbed the tray (sitting around outside did not make it look any better), dried it overnight by the floor register.

2 coats of Simply White CeCe Caldwell Vintage White Chalk-Clay paint. When dry used MinWax Polycrylic.

Arranged and rearranged the nativity figures. The camels didn't really fit on the tray but could be 'carried' with the tray.

Nativity Vignette solution. Portable. Shareable.

Thanks for visiting. Have a wonderful week.
