Here we are already in the last week of Advent and I have an early Christmas present for you all, a 3-D Printable Baby Jesus Ornament! And it’s free of course since it’s a gift:)
I hope those of you who got the 3-D Jesse Tree Ornaments have enjoyed that tradition this year. I know it was fun here, and even though we started strong with coloring all our own black and white ornaments, we switched quickly to using the already colored versions. To finish off your Jesse Tree or just to decorate your actual Christmas tree, here’s a baby Jesus in a manger ornament.

(For the best results please save to your computer before printing).
The printable includes both black and white and a digitally colored version. That way your kiddos can color their own in, or just assemble and enjoy.
Instructions for assembly:
Print the three pages, and color in if you printed black and white, and cut out around the outside lines.
Fold the tabs inward, and crease the manger along the lines next to the center two tabs.
Use glue dots or glue stick to glue the tabs to the trapezoidal sides of the manger. First, attach the bottom two and then the top two.
Crease the inside section, and insert into the manger. You can attach with tape or glue dots, or just leave it as it is.
Lay baby Jesus in it! If you want to hang, simply hole punch the ends and attach your string or ribbon. You can just display him as is where ever you wish, or hang it from your Jesse or Christmas tree.
Merry Christmas!
