  Enjoy the true Christmas spirit with 40 inspirational crafts that incorporate religious items -- objects that commemorate the holy day of Christ's birth and give your home that special holiday glow. From miniature angel houses to cross-shaped bookmarks, there's something to transform every room, set on every table, hang on every wall, and dress up every window. Decoupage a scriptural frame to display your favorite Bible verse. Instead of the usual wooden creche, set up a beaded Nativity scene; you just cut out the patterns, sew on the beads, and hang them with gold thread. (You'll find designs for Mary and Jesus, Joseph, a shepherd, the three Wise Men, an angel, a donkey, and a camel.) Cross-stitch a Christmas sentiment, light a candle lantern decorated with a holly-and-berry pattern and a cross, and make a beautiful Bible cover. And keep those treasured photos and cards safe in a beautiful memory album. You'll cherish these precious items for many Christmases to come!
