Went Junkin' -Barbie Size Nativity and Kitschy Hard Plastic Christmas Candle Rings

As soon as I saw this old nativity ornament at the thrift store I knew it would be the perfect scale for Barbie:@) It's made of plastic with glass glitter and is marked Hong Kong on the side. It's a beautiful ornament and one I couldn't leave behind, especially for 50 cents!

Anyone remember these? Woolworth's maybe?
I have a soft spot for these kitschy old hard plastic Christmas decorations:@) So far I've found a great wreath, a glittered Merry Christmas plaque and this haul makes three candle rings. I just picked up two for $1 each. What I really love about this one is they used laurel leaves. At least I think laurel makes more sense than sage leaves? Also love the little plastic pinecones.

The other one has holly, berries and flowers. 
Both are in great shape and only the one on the left is missing a couple sprigs...

 But once I do a little rearranging it will be perfect.

Have a great weekend everyone:@)
