DIY Mini Stocking Tree Decoration

Hey guys, today I'm going to show you how to create this really sweet Christmas stocking:

You will need...

Red felt

White cotton material

Embellishments (ribbons, buttons, felt, lace)

Material scissors

A sewing machine or a needle and some thread

Template of a stocking

Instructions

1.    Start by cutting the two stocking pieces out of red felt and the two stocking pieces of white cotton. Here is the template I used

2.    Then choose what design you would like to put on to your stocking, I chose some lace, a bit of red ribbon and a few buttons.

3.    Sew your design on to a piece of red felt

4.    Next place your designed stocking piece face up on top of the two white pieces of cotton and the back of the stocking at the bottom (it will look a bit like a sandwich).

Then sew half a cm around the edge of the stocking with sewing machine or use a needle and

thread.

 At the top of the stocking only sew one piece of felt with one piece of white fabric like so..

5.    Then attach either so string or a little bit of ribbon so you can hang it on the Christmas tree.

6.    Remember you can adjust the sizes of the stockings if you fancy!

Let me know if you made this decoration?

5 Tips for a Stress Free Christmas

Is the idea of Christmas stressing you out?...well, here are a few tips to help you have a stress free time:

1. Think ahead

Know how many days you have left and plan different tasks to do each day, so that it's not a last minute panic.

2. Ask people what they want

Don't waste hours thinking of what to buy people, it's easier just to ask!

3. Shopping Online

Shopping from home avoids the crazy Christmas crowds and can save money at the same time.

4. Don't look for perfection

Nothing ever will be perfect so just relax and enjoy the Christmas spirit.

5. Make it fun

You can have so much fun making your own tree decorations, baking and watching Christmas movies.

This is what our Christmas Tree looks like this year

Lots of love
