Making a Scene!

Hi folks, just wondering, have you ever been out shopping and noticed one of those people that like to make a scene?  You know just what I’m talking about, right?

Well, I must confess.  I am one of those people that likes to make a scene.  Luckily, I do it in the privacy of my own home.

Oh, must admit, I would make a scene at your house too if you’d let me.

Let me tell you about the last few scenes I made.  Here goes, are your ready for this?

I guess I don’t always do them at home.  This first one took place in a flower shop.

A vintage house and church are the background for this Woodsy Wonderland. But look, what’s that over there in the right corner?  A sweet little Nativity.

Oh, and look what the children built for us behind the church.

I carefully opened the lid for a peek inside. Let’s quickly close it.  We wouldn’t want the deer to escape.

Aren’t they sweet?  A couple of bucks and fawn.  A little time worn, but I love them!

Thank goodness the next scene I made wasn’t quite as big.  Just a simple ceramic church, a couple of white bucks, and one giant snowflake.  Who cares if the deer are as big as the church?

But did I stop there?  Oh no, it wasn’t enough to make just two scenes.  I had to go for a third.  Are you embarrassed for me yet?

Oh, I have seen people make a scene with Santa before.  Mostly children, crying and such.  Guess I couldn’t get by without making one with that jolly old elf.

And yes, sometimes I make a mini scene.  Like this shaker.  My friends and I made 20 of these for a club favor. Now, that was quite a site, 5 of us making a scene at the same time.  Some of the tops were glittered  (using Modge Podge) with turquoise glitter.  So, so cute!  S & P shakers from Wal-mart, Epsom salts from the dollar store, a mini tree and voila!  We decorated each one differently.  Using whatever we had in our stash.

Luckily, that’s all of the scenes I am going to make for now.  Thank goodness too, because it just started to snow.

Because I love to make scenes I keep my eyes out for little figures whenever I go to an antique or thrift shop.

But, I do not just make any scene.  It has to be a thrifty scene.  One day I spied the cutest set of three little Halloween figures.  They wanted $17 for them.  Now, that just about caused me to make a real scene. lol!  Sorry to say, they didn’t come home with me.  I’ve got to have a better deal than that to make a scene!

How about you?  Are you one of those people who likes to make a scene?

Hugs,

Jann
