Crafty Moment

So, I'm up to my arse in items that I have to complete before Christmas, but I took a time out to do something that I've been wanting to do for the past couple of years for my own home. I had the standard "NOEL" stocking holders that you can find almost anywhere. The shiny silver stood out in all the wrong ways on my mantle. Not to mention my stockings are from dollar tree from a couple of years back. I've never wanted to embroider the stockings with our names because, let's be honest, the thread and time it would take cost more than the stockings themselves. So I decided to make a knock off of a stocking holder I saw on pottery barn's website a couple of years ago. It was really easy & cheap! I think to make over all 4 was about $15. Here are some before & after pics...P.S. Happy Thursday!:
