How to make a Christmas Crib - Presepio

[@JulianScicluna]

Very good Marco. Your effort to show how gablo can be used in crib making is very much appreciated.

[@MarcoSpiteri]

and saw dust and mix with water until you have a creamy liquid. You will need paper napkins. Place a paper napkin on any area you want to plaster and dab with a small paint brush. Cover all the crib in this way. When dried it will give you a good hard finish. Paint to your liking however do not use dark colours

[@MarcoSpiteri]

Hi Daryl thanks for your comments. You certainly need to get some sheep and one or two sheperds. Yes a woman washing clothes or a statue holding a bucket next to the water fountain..a shop keeper and a Baker for the Bakery...three wise men are important...the rest I leave to your imagination...every character is nice to have...in Malta for example we have a figure looking downwards from the top of the nativity cave which I have not included in this crib...hope this is useful information to you

hey hi marco, I really loved your design of this christmas crib and would like to congragulate you for that. I have started making crib for this year I need your hlp on how to put extra statues apart from the nativity statues. Could you please help me, it would be great from your side like the shopkeeper or lady carrying water etc.

For the benefit of those looking through this clip and wanting to construct a Christmas Crib. Basically the crib is made out of jablo pieces fixed together with pva glue and toothpicks and formed by hand to any shape required. The building is done by cutting small blocks of jablo in the form of small bricks and building as we did with lego blocks. After having finished the shaping of the Jablo for rock and the building preapre a mixture of PVA glue, plaster powder (english plaster)

[@daryl12375]

Hi Marco could you please help me in giving some tip or idea of how can I prepare or make such statues like the baker or the women filling water because in India you dont get such kind of statues apart from the nativity set. It would be very helpful from you. Thanks.

[@MAGOAMED]

Marco pe ri colori hai usato le tempere, credi che vanno bene anche le tempere delle pitture murali?? quelle che si usano pe rdipingere l'interno degli appartamenti, io ho intenzione di cimentarmi con un presepe di polistirolo ma non adesso ormai il natale e' molto vicino, ma mi organizzo e lo faro' con molta calma e tempo in piu' disponibile, comunque grazie dei tuoi consigli e suggerimenti,significa che lo fai per hobby e non sei geloso del tuo lavoro.

[@MarcoSpiteri]

Lupo, Grazie per il complimento, allora ho usato film di plastica quella che usiamo in cucina un po di colla bianca sotto poi sopra ho messo quella cera che viene intorno al formaggio di galbani :) ...ho usato questa tecnica perche la corsa dell'aqua e corta.

[@silk14u]

First of all want to congratulate you for your good teaching how to make a crib, but I would like to ask you what type of pump I need to make the waterfall and from where I am Maltese like you Marco and thanks.

[@MarcoSpiteri]

its a water pump you can buy from an aquarium shop

[@charliebriffa7868]

MarcoSpiteri Thank you Marco for the information and good night

[@MarcoSpiteri]

Lupo..si puo usare tempere che si usano per dipingere i muri del appartamento pero le tempere devono essere "water based" con base aqua perche se non sono cosi fanno danneggio al polistirolo. Grazie per i complimenti Marco
