1. A clear acrylic unique Nativity set is definitely original and will suit more modern or minimalists tastes. It will blend with any home’s interior. A clear Nativity set will also catch and reflect light.
2. Just as the clear acrylic set is a good fit for a modernist or minimalist, a unique Nativity set made out of Belleek china is a great option for more classic or high-end tastes. The creamy white look of Belleek china is rather unexpected in a Nativity set (people are more accustomed to earthy tones) which is what makes it unique, but anything made from Belleek china is timelessly beautiful.
3. We all know that children like to be included and represented in Christmas traditions. This unique Nativity set is comprised of child-like figures and will surely please the littlest audiences.
4. If you are the creative type, then a hand-painted Nativity set made out of rocks may be right up your alley. Northerners might have a hard time find rocks under the blanket of snow, but the effort will result in a truly adorable and unique Nativity set.
5. Actually, there are a whole host of DIY options out there. Some of these would make for a great secondary/supplemental unique Nativity set that you can display throughout your home while reserving your mantle or central space for a more polished scene. Many upycling options provide great for kids to create their own Nativity set (try the toilet paper roll Nativity set).
6. It is wonderful to celebrate your heritage during the Christmas season. Celtic Nativity sets involve distinct materials and shapes that you won’t see elsewhere. Mexican and Russian Nativity sets are also considered some of the most unique and attractive.
7. A plush Nativity set is a great option for kids’ rooms or play areas. Just make sure the family pet doesn’t run away with a figure!
8. A puzzle Nativity set is a really special addition to your holiday décor. Expect it to be a conversation and gathering piece as well as decoration.
9. A life-size and totally unique Nativity set is truly breathtaking but…
10. …a live Nativity scene is the most unique of all! If you have the chance, find one in your area. Many churches and larger community gathering places will display a live scene during the holiday season.
