How Do You Set Up An Outdoor Nativity Scene?
Here’s how to present your outdoor nativity scene in the best light. Decide where your nativity scene will be best appreciated – by the front walk? in the corner of your yard? Make sure that your extension cord is made for outdoor use and that it will reach from the electrical outlet to your display. Set up the core of the scene with the Mary and Joseph figures flanking the manger. Add the wise men figures to one side and the animal figures to the other. Make sure none of the additional figures obstruct the view of the manger piece, which is the focus of the scene. Use sandbags for ballast if you live in a particularly windy climate.
