Christmas in July: Fontanini Nativities

Fontanini Nativities

Christmas in July continues here at Christmas CentralFontanini nativities are well known to many, and cherished by all.  These nativity sets and figures are all imported from Italy, and we carry the whole line of pieces from the tiniest 2.5 inch collection, all the way up to the life-size 70 inch collection.  No matter if you’re searching for pieces to display on a mantle or larger pieces for Church or commercial displays, we have them all here.

Perhaps what makes Fontanini so special is that it’s incredibly high-quality.  Each piece is hand-made and perfect for passing down from generation to generation.  You’ll find every piece and figure that you’re looking for from the Holy Family, to the 3 Wise Men:  Melchior, Balthazar and Gaspar.   We also have the shepherds, such as Gabriel, Noah & Silas; animals, like the duck, deer and sheep families and the Gloria Angel in most of the sizes as well.

In addition to the well-known nativity pieces, we also carry other Fontanini items.  Browse through our vast selection of statues, ornaments, glitterdomescrosses, and advent items.   You’ll even find musical Fontanini pieces.  We have everything you need to decorate for the holiday season.  Not finding what you’re looking for?  Have no worries; we are constantly getting new merchandise in and chances are if you check back in a few weeks, we’ll have it then!

Christmas in…June?

“Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind.”  ~Calvin Coolidge

I know what you’re thinking.  Christmas isn’t in June, or July for that matter.  But don’t think we’ve lost our Christmas spirit.  After all, we ARE Christmas Central!  It’s never too soon to start thinking about decorating for the holidays.

Today at work was particularly fun.  This week we got in TONS of new Christmas merchandise and the office was full of boxes of festive new items.  The retro line is one of my personal favorites.  The retro ornaments remind me of time’s past (the reindeer is my favorite!!).  So much fun!  Ready for a real flashback?  Check out these funky retro tv ornaments!

We have beautiful icy crystal figures that add sparkle and an instant wintry feel to any decor.  Some even light up, like these adorable snowmen.  The Greenland nativity figures are ultra-colorful and unique, and add a little touch of exotic flair to your home.  If you’re looking for something more inspirational, the Kneeling Santa collection is very popular this year!

Spread your wings and let the fairy in you fly!

Mark Roberts Fairies are distinctive and fascinating authentic characters, which have an heirloom quality that can be enjoyed from one generation to another.  Each piece emanates uniqueness and character resulting from hand painting and production by accomplished artisans.  All pieces are wired to allow for a magical and whimsical pose.  Each is a numbered limited edition which comes with an official registration form. These impish creatures have come to ChristmasCentral.com to keep the holiday spirit alive all year long.  We just got a trailer full of limited edition fairies and are really excited.  Visit our website in the Mark Roberts Section to see our complete collection.    Also ChristmasCentral.com also got the last of the 12 Days of Christmas Fairies that are going to be discontinued after this year which makes them one of our hottest items! Make sure to complete your collection these are “flying” out the door.

Hand in hand, with fairy grace,
Will we sing, and bless this place.
