Awright

Just to let you all know ... Daniel's got some 300 hunderd figurines, 'bout 50 buildings, some 500 accesories and more than a dozen nativity scenes, including the one that use to be long to our parish (before they closed the church down)

And if you look closely at the tree, you'll see many of em cause it ain't really a Christmas tree, but a multy layered figurine display.

some details of the area between the tree and the huge nativity scene


Again, and better in this picture than the last, you can see the the faux christmas tree is just another opportunity to display more buildings and figurines

BTW, Kelda, I don't think they bother with dusting ... The displays stay up for about 5 weeks then gets put away until the next year.

Here's another collection of figurines called 'All Through the House' - larger figurines than the rest (6 inches instead of 1 inch). I like the small nativity scene near the tree and the large houses of the village near it ) most a em are to the left of the picture. Oh, and the picture in the background is another small detail added by Daniel.
