Stockings hung with care

We had those red furry stockings with the white fur around the top...which are fine. I'm not baggin' them. I just wanted something a little more us & cottagey. So, I sewed!

Pink with green turtles...this was a thrift store find...a skirt. And NO it wasn't Lilly Pullitzer...she wasn't harmed during this project.

I let the girls, each, pick out their own fabric...then we all consulted on dad's.

They are simple...which is what I wanted.

This is what was going on behind the scenes...jewelry making...an early Christmas present from Uncle Bob & Aunt Vicki!

  2. The stockings are just beautiful! I love the simplicity of them.

    I also love the little stocking hooks with the picture frames. I don't have a mantle so I've never looked closely at them in the store but yours are adorable.

  7. The paint color in my living room is Golden Ecru from Lowes. It's a great tan with a little golden hue in it. I'll be back for sure to see what else you are up to!
