"If you'd like to give a really beautiful and special gift this Christmas with a little street cred, they're all inspired by — guess what — a set I made when I was confined," Stewart shares in the video.

Stewart, 80, then picked up a nativity scene piece that showed her inmate number on the bottom.

"They still have my number on the bottom. These are exact replicas of a nativity scene that I made in my pottery class when I was away at camp," Stewart said.

Stewart said the set she created while incarcerated was molded, glazed, painted, and underwent the firing process. She then showed off a 14-piece replica set she created that was glazed in white.

In 2004, Stewart was convicted on one count of conspiracy, two counts of making false statements, and one count of obstruction of agency proceedings. She spent five months in a minimum-security prison before five months of home confinement.

The conviction was related to a 2001 incident in which Stewart — after gaining information that was not publicly available — sold her ImClone Systems shares one day before their value fell. The US Securities and Exchange Commission estimated that Stewart avoided a loss of more than $45,000.

The Associated Press reported that prosecutors accused Stewart of lying about receiving the tip.

She was later released in 2005 and has since spoken publicly about her experience.

In 2004, CNN reported that Stewart shared a note about her prison life on her website.

"There is no real help, no real program to rehabilitate, no programs to educate, no way to be prepared for life 'out there' where each person will ultimately find herself, many with no skills and no preparation for living," she wrote.
