Nativity Block

A couple years ago, our Relief Society made these Nativity Blocks.  Since then, it has been one of my favorite Christmas decorations and they were super easy to make. 
You can get the glass blocks at Hobby Lobby and one of my friends cut out the vinyl of the Nativity Scene.  The glass block has a hole at the bottom of it where I put the Christmas Lights and some ribbon inside.  Then I just tied a bow around the block and was done!  
Super easy and cute!!

    I love seeing people show the real meaning of this season, not just all the pretty ornaments and Christmas trees. Your nativity looks very elegant with the bow and lights. Thank you so much for visiting my blog tonight.

    I was so excited to see a project using glass blocks. My Dad had a mason company and use to make glass block windows in the garage for extra money. I really love it, and yes they do have holes on the button so the lights really make it sparkle. Great job! Thanks for sharing over at Sunday's Best.

    I am sorry, but I do not have the pattern for the Nativity Scene. My friend cut it out for me about 3 years ago. Sorry!
