These small figurines of Mary, Joseph and Baby Jesus are a part of a set that belonged to my parents, so they have very special to me. Because they are small they don't show up very well just sitting on a tabletop but when placed under a cloche....Voila'.... they are immediately raised to a the level of importance, visually.
I placed a small round mirror on a white plate that acts as the base for the figurines. I set the plate on a dollar store fir wreath then wove a battery operated string of small lights.
I added the antique blue silk ribbon bow last!
Simple things that elevate this meaningful and most important symbol of Christmas, the reason for the season.
I am linking today to A Stroll Thru Life's Cloche Party

That is a special nativity you have created. It is beautiful.
Having the nativity from your parents be the star in your holiday decor is wonderful. And is interesting how a clear dome placed over them makes them stand out more.
The special nativity scene from your parents is beautiful and displaying in on the Bible what a wonderful true meaning for the season. Blessings, Vicky
