Every year as I decorate for Christmas, I tell myself that next year I’m going to make my family some kick-butt Christmas stockings and finally buy some fun hangers. Yeah, I’ve had kids for 10 years now and it still hasn’t happened. Maybe next year? {{giggle}}
So to get us all inspired and motivated to have fabulous catalog mantles; today for Teach Me Thursday I’m going to hook you up with lots of fun Christmas stocking tutorials and ideas. Hopefully you’ll find one you like to make next year. {{wink}}

It would be so hard to decide what to make from all of these cool choices! I’m glad my family stuck w/ one stocking for our entire lives. No decisions to make!

I love the purple fancy boot and the cowboy boot. And I’m obsessed with Fanciful Twist’s take – on just about everything, actually!

I love the sparkly no sew stocking & the pink glittery house and tree on the mantel in the first picture!
The ones made out of screen are great!
