No Mantle Stocking Solution

December 7, 2012 By: Melanie

We don’t have a mantle, but of course still want to hang stockings.  So I got some wood, paint, and hooks and created this stocking hanger for our family of 6.

 I  added the fun quote with vinyl (my mom has a Cricut)  and some snowflakes.

 I just bought a pack of hooks at the hardware store and screwed them to the board.

It is attached to the wall with some Command velcro strips so there will not be permanent holes in the wall after the stockings come down.   There are currently no stockings hanging on it for good reason!  I’ve been wanting to make some new stockings for years, and this is finally the year!  Can’t wait to finish them and show you!

    I used the Cricut cutting machine to do the letters. Stencils would work too! 🙂

    Shirelle,
    We just used red latex paint. Acrylic paint would be just as good. 🙂

    You can buy a 1×8 board at your local hardware store. Ours is cut to the length of 3 feet to fit all 6 stockings. Most hardware stores will cut it for you!
