Its Christmas Eve, and you need to leave Christmas stockings out above your fireplace. Uh oh....you don't have a Christmas stocking to put up. Don't worry, don't fret...find a quick crafting idea below and you won't have to worry about going out and buying a new, expensive, Xmas stocking.
Here is an easy-to-make Xmas stockings craft. Use the following stockings template for this craft. Cut it out and then trace it onto felt or fabric twice. Then decorate the fabric or felt with pictures of stars, reindeer, trees, holly, candy canes, or whatever. You can do this with other pieces of felt or fabric or with buttons, sequins, glitter, or whatever you want to use. Use the blanket stitch to sew your 2 stocking pieces together. If you want, you can glue cotton on the top of the stocking to look like the classic Christmas stocking.
Here is the fireplace and stocking pattern to print out. Fold forward the shelf, cutting the two-inch lines above the bricks (shown in illustration). Fold out lines A, and fold back lines B. The two fronts of the fireplace of course must be the same distance forward, and the shelf resting on them. Then draw and cut the candlesticks and Christmas stockings, and place them in position, and pin or paste them on. You can put your fireplace stockings craft up on a mantle or in your room.

(clear, more modern looking colours). I figured I'd sort out the rest
later. Let the games begin...
