Part 1: The Black & White Check & Bling Series
The Showstopper
In this multi-episode series, we take a standard $79.99 resin nativity set (or a thrifted find!) and transform it into a glamorous, cohesive display. You don’t need to be a professional artist to achieve these results; I break down complex patterns into simple, manageable steps.
What You Will Learn:
• Mastering the Checks & Stripes: Learn how to freehand stripes and checks that actually follow the shape and drape of the clothing, rather than looking flat and rigid. I’ll show you the specific brushes I use (short, fat, flat, and firm!) to get those crisp corners.
• The "Liquid Gold" Secret: Discover the specific brand of gold leaf paint that covers in one coat and provides a rich, metallic shine that regular acrylics just can’t match.
• Decoupage & Mixed Media: Watch how I incorporate vintage hymnal pages or scrapbook paper onto figures like Joseph and the Angel for a textured, mixed-media look.
• The Art of Bling: We don't mess around with messy glue and tiny stones. I will teach you how to use adhesive rhinestone sheets and titanium scissors to add elegant, sparkling trim to every figure—even Baby Jesus, because Jesus can have bling!
• Fixing Factory Mistakes: I’ll show you how to repaint hair and beards using acrylic paints so your figures don't look like they have "weird" red hair and jet-black beards.
“I’ve sold these sets for up to $300. If you were doing this as a gift, somebody would be beyond thrilled.”
Part 2: The BONUS Blue & White Toile Series
The Elegant Classic
As a special gift for purchasing the main class, you get immediate access to the Blue and White Toile Nativity Course. This is a completely different technique that is faster but equally stunning.
In this Bonus Course, You’ll Discover:
• The Napkin Decoupage Technique: Learn how to use patterned napkins (Toile, or any design you love) to create a seamless, hand-painted look without actually painting a design.
• Wrinkle-Free Application: I’ll teach you my method using Mod Podge Multi and a plastic deli sheet to ensure your napkins go down smooth with zero wrinkles.
• Seamless Edges: Learn how to use a gator sander or emery board to create perfectly clean edges on your decoupage.
• Custom Embellishment: We finish this set with gold accents and silver bling for a mixed-metal look that pops.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
No! While I use a specific set from Hobby Lobby because it has great height and price, you can use any nativity set. I even show you a set I got from Goodwill. You can mix and match pieces, sizes, and styles.
-
Not at all. I teach you to "sketch" with your brush and use your pinky for stability. I also make mistakes on camera and show you exactly how to fix them with a "magic" touch-up mix of Burlap and White paint.
-
I recommend specific items that make the job easier (like the Dynasty brushes or Liquid Leaf), but you can use supplies you already have. I even show you how to use a gold paint pen for tricky areas.
-
Absolutely. While I teach Black & White and Blue Toile, you can adapt these techniques for Red & White, Gold & White, or any color that matches your decor.
