(Anne:) Last night, Amy and I made a LOT of little men......for the Cenacle presentation of course. We made the twelve apostles and then glued their symbols on the bottom. Maybe Amy could post the link for the symbols in the comments.
We made Jesus wearing a white tunic with a red sash to make Him look very different from an apostle so He was easily recognizable.
The candlesticks are upside down golf tees painted black on the bottom, left white in the middle, and yellow at the tips.
The white pitcher and bowl is from the dollhouse section at Hobby Lobby.
The chalice and paten are from the small wood section at Michael's. ("Finial dowel cap with 1/4 in hole" and "3/4 in circle" are what the packages call them.)

wow! beautiful! thanks for sharing.
I originally scanned that image here: http://4real.thenetsmith.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=8912 from the book "With Christ Through the Year" by Rev. Bernard Strasser.
There were some great ideas for symbols also in this thread http://4real.thenetsmith.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10279&PN=1&TPN=1

I love these- how did you made the apostle- what do they look like under their clothes? Thanks Michele
