Burlap Stockings

I am not a lover of burlap, but even I have to admit that these stockings from Make It and Love It are pretty beautiful:


I may have to find a way to incorporate pleats and ruffles (without the burlap) into our stockings.

We have never been huge stocking people, but I really do want to have a family set.  Do you have one set of stockings that you use every year, or do you change them to match the rest of your holiday decorations?

Hanging Your Stockings Without a Mantel

This is actually the first year in a long time that we have had a fireplace.  I am still trying to figure out how to hang the stockings from it since none of the stocking holders that I have been hoping for years to use will sit on the edge of the silly rounded mantel.

So I have been browsing for other stocking options.  Here are some for those of you that don't have a mantel of your own or are just looking for something new.

The Nest has one of the most traditional ideas, your banister:


If you don't have stairs than Country Living has some great ideas that include a dresser, your bed, and the piano:




Hanging them in the windows is a fun idea from Apartment Therapy:


And Restyled Home has hers hung from her wainscoting:


So where do you hang your stockings?  Even though we have a mantel, I might just go for the piano this year.

Simple and Perfect Felt Stockings

Kierste from Brown Paper Packages dressed up some felt stockings with a little fabric and some heat'n bond:



They might be the cutest stockings I have ever seen. Sometimes simple is perfect. You can check out her stockings (all 7 of them) HERE. And while you are there, check out her really cute Rag Garland too.
