Here's just a quick tip on how to hang your stockings, especially if you are like me and have 3 stocking holders with more than 3 stockings. I've contemplated bringing out my other stocking holders, but they didn't match. I could have done every other one, but I think that would only look good if you had an odd number, and currently, i have an even :) I then thought about hanging Max's stocking on the shelves to the right of my mantel, but then I felt like I was ousting him before the baby has even made its appearance, and of course, that made me feel terribly bad. I love my mutt too much to oust him :)
Then I went to my friends house last week and saw this idea on her mantel. She has 7 stockings, so I guess when you need that many, you find ways to make them work :) I'm not sure where she got the idea or if it's an original. But I thought it was genius!
Just get a curtain rod, place it on top of your stocking hangers, string your stockings, and there you have it!
Now you can hang as many as you wish!
Best idea ever, and it looks great too so double kudos!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of those "DUH!" moments. You know, the one where you say to yourself "now, why didn't I think of that?". Thanks for sharing - genius idea!

I so had to pin this...Love Love Love it!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it. Saying to myself the same thing as others. I have 9 to hang and I don't have ANY stocking hangers. In the past I have just used clear, packing tape across the edge (using ribbon through the hoops to make them even... but this is a great idea. I found you via Hometalk. Thank you for the great idea and will use it next year.
