Color choices
Baby Jesus can begin with soft colors on the wrapped blanket and its broad bands. Color the manger planks in warm browns, the straw in golden yellow, and the sheep in cream or light gray. Combine a pale blue blanket with deeper blue bands. Use bright yellow for the star, with darker shading on the hooves and wooden joints for contrast.
Blanket Band Pattern
Use a repeating sequence of colors across the blanket bands. Echo selected shades on the star, straw, or manger details.
