I'm having trouble finding a nativity scene that I like.

It has to have all the main people, Mary, Joseph, Jesus (obviously) wise men and preferably angel and a couple of animals

I'd like it to have a stable but every one I've seen has horrid fake moss stuck on.
The figures need to be freestanding, not stuck onto the stable

I don't really want to pay more than £50.

am I too fussy?
can anyone help?

Usually have things like that at fairtrade sales- think they might be cafod( or religious bookshops/ charity shops. )

Traidcraft.co.uk- just googled- they have some lovely figures.

There are a number of listings on eBay for the East of India wooden nativity set like this. They aren't traditional figures but they are beautiful.

This one is lovely. Wish I could justify the expense.

Two years agin I spent about a squillion pounds on the Lenox one (look on American eBay). I don't regret it, as it's beautiful and something for life, but my God it was expensive!

the one tippytap has linked to is lovely so wish I couldn't justify it!! we have a very cheap Tesco one which is pretty much falling apart.

I got this www.paperchase.co.uk/multi-nativity-set.html nativity set from Paperchase the other week for £12.

Well I couldn't really justify £50 for tippytaps nativity scene as lovely as it is but i found this one www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B009ETC7CW/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_.rmFub0H87C22
while browsing and have ordered. Thanks for all your replies
