Lenox First Blessing Nativity

I have begun collecting the Lenox First Blessing Nativity. I have many of the pieces, but there are 2 new pieces this year (Girl with Goose and Little Drummer Boy). Also, there are other retired pieces you may be able to find on Ebay or Replacements.com. They are listed on my Lenox Registry.

French Perle Dishes

We’ve purchased the French Perle Bead White Square Dishes as our main dishes. However, I’d love to have the serving pieces to go with them. Also, listed on the registry.

China Service – Lenox Bellina (Platinum)
I’m trying to complete my china service this year. I’ve created a registry site to keep track of what pieces we are missing:

I’ve been finding the best prices on www.lenox.com and if you receive their emails, they often have additional sales of up to 30% off (sometimes more!).

**Update – I’ve actually found some “New-in-box” items on www.ebay.com and on www.replacements.com/. These would be great places to check!
