The Stockings were Hung by the Chimney with Care

Ever since we decided to buy this house,

I've been SO excited to decorate the mantle for Christmas,

especially being able to hang our stockings from the mantle!

So of course I needed super cute stocking hangers.

But I didn't want to pay an arm and a leg for them.

Seriously, I saw some for like SIXTY dollars PER stocking hanger.

Uh.. no thanks.

So I started thinking about what I wanted.

I never found what I wanted.

So what was my solution?!

Make my own.

Behold:

 Here is the whole mantle.

I'm kind of obsessed with nativities...
