I feel like I have been living and breathing cutting, sanding and painting the last few days. I really should have started all of this earlier!
But here is a small version of a wooden Nativity puzzle. This puzzle has only 4 pieces and is about 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide. It was cut on a scroll saw out of 1/2 inch MDF (check the scrap bin at your local Home Depot, I have spent no more that $1 on the wood for about 20 nativities).
I used the same paint be Martha Stewart as I used for my stocking hangers.
Here's is an image of the basic pattern. The pattern does not have the star. I "eye-balled" each star as I cut them.

I love this. I just wish I had a saw and knew how to use it well. This maybe a Hubby do project.
