TIS THE SEASON TO GET CRAFTY
For some reason fall comes & I get the itch to get crafty... I actually started off wanting to make a layered ruffled tree skirt which I found on Pinterest, visit Here for more information on the tree skirt. So I bought the material and everything for the skirt, but we moved right after Christmas so I only had time to make these stockings. I plan on making the tree skirt by thanksgiving this year....

HOW TO:
This is Easy crafting right here!!! Ok here's the exciting part, I picked up the stockings from Dollar tree which were just cheap looking and basic felt & I got most of my fabric from Ben Franklins in Kaysville & just started cutting, tucking & gluing. I added a little lace, a little burlap, floral ribbon. Now the back of the stockings are another story.... NOT so pretty! I debated whether or not to add our names to them... After this picture was taken I found tiny chalk board ornaments that I attached with cute little clips!! I so wish I had a picture of the chalk boards attached and seeing how it's October they are stored away for now, but you get the idea right?! Here's an important tip, if you want your fabric edges looking clean and not frayed make sure and pick up some Fray Check from your local craft store and add it to your edges. Have fun crafting!!!
