I love these Pictures.
Last year they sent me a Christmas Card made of finely cut grass and leaves glued together to make a nativity scene. I {heart} these pictures!
I was trying to figure out how to put this ensemble together with what I had: 2 shadowbox frames, one black frame and a cheap plastic dollar store frame. I decided to glue a cheap dollar store frame ON TOP of the glass of the black frame. You're right, it's not straight- I don't care. It took me forever to center it this well... picture police, I'm guilty... bad lighting and pictures after 10pm... need I say more?
Ta-da!- A year round nativity of African art in my very girly office (which is such a mess from writing Santa's letters (and other things) that it's not able to be photographed.

oh they are gorgeous! I want some!
These are absolutely beautiful. My parents lived in Africa for eight years and brought some fabulous art and baskets home with them when they returned.
Great blog!

I love Uganda! Where are your parents? I traveled twice to Mbarrara a few years ago to work with AIDS patients and to teach some Bible studies, and I fell absolutely in love with the people. My African brothers and sisters call me "Senga" -- "Auntie," because, they say matter-of-factly, "She is fat and she gives us advice -- she is our Senga!" LOL!
Grins!

I love those nativity pictures too. I love the one piece statues with Mary Joseph and Baby Jesus, as well.
