Is anyone interested in me putting stuff from Germany in any of those sections at the SHOP? I can ship to the States cheaper than you guys ship from the States to Germany, so shipping wouldn't be such a problem. I am just asking, because if there is something special you would like (like Goebels figurines, or Christmas ornaments, antiques or whatever) I can try and get it for you. Also, I know you are all great crafters, but if I could sell a few quilted, crochet or other handmade things here in the forum that would be awesome. I need to make a little extra money, cause I want to visit my daughter in Kentucky in October and my husband, left me with a bunch of debt, when he passed last year.

By all means Doris! One thing I have been looking for for YEARS is a nativity set, probably sold in the ... military zone. The set itself is paper mache` but the baby is a tiny plastic doll, in a wooden manger with moss in it. I have seen bits and pieces of it here but it is soooo expensive! It was sold between 64 and 65, when my folks were in Germany, about the time I was born in 64.

Mel, I know what you are talking about... I think. I will try to find something like that for you, would used be okay, because they are cheaper or do you want a new one?

It is like this one but that is the wrong baby. I want mainly the people/animals and the manger. I don't need the shed. I don't have a spot for that shed anyway.

ah okay, I see.... I will get you what you need. Wooden figures no shed. What is your budget? I mean these figures come in a range of prices and can get really expensive, depending on how many figures you want. It may take a while though, because Christmas is over, lol....

What I remember was 3 wise men, one I call Balthazar was ebony looking with red and purple robes. he was always my favorite because his robs were so colorful. Joseph Mary Baby in the manger a donkey 2 sheep and a cow They were I think paper mach`e.
Let me know what you find, because my budget is small. If possible can you post pictures? I want a very specific set to replace my mother's set. Just not the shed. These were smaller than a Barbie doll but not tiny. The tallest was maybe 9 inches, it came to a Barbie's shoulder and Barbie in general is 11 inches. Except the baby which was tiny and plastic.

When I lived therein mid 80's I had a cafe size kitchen curtain. The upper half was sheer but the bottom half was done in a scene of a house and trees. That is one thing I lost in my divorce.

These are six of the ones that I can get you... there are more. Trees and houses are no longer the style, but like the ones with the coffee cups personally. I am actually thinking about getting them for my kitchen. I think they were 4 Euros.... I know what you mean loosing stuff in a divorce. It stinks....
