No-Sew Stockings

I just launched a new product in my Etsy Store. I am so excited to introduce to you my No-Sew Stocking Kits. I also have the stockings available already made.

They are really simple to make. If you can tie your own shoes you can make this stocking.

They come in two sizes:
Regular $10 (3 or more $8 a kit): finished size is approximately 9" wide by 16" long
Mini $6 (3 or more $5 a kit): finished size is approximately 4.5" wide by 8.5" long

Each kit includes:
2 pre-cut pieces of Holiday printed fleece
1 ribbon length of approximately 36"
1 ribbon length of approximately 12"
1 safety pin
Instructions Page.

The instructions include the directions for both styles.

You can purchase them at my Etsy Store or by emailing me at: krafymum03 (at) gmail (dot) com. If you email me I will send you an invoice through PayPal. Be sure to include how many you want and of which print you would like. Shipping will be calculated.

Homemade Christmas Gift Ideas

I'm going to be diving into the Christmas season by starting to post ideas I've found around the blog world and also the one's I'm thinking of doing. To start off I found this cute idea over at My Good Finds  of these fun Family Blocks.

 

Notice the wires on the top to hold pictures.  What a fun idea!

Share Parents update….

Here’s all the blankets and diapers we made for Share Parents (you can find a little more information about them Share Parents here.  Thanks everyone who helped out.  They unfortunately had to use one of the diapers yesterday, but she said it made all the difference for the pictures they take to have the little baby in a cute diaper.

I lost but here’s my craft…

As you may have noticed I am no longer in the competition for So You Think You’re Crafty.  Since I didn’t get very many votes I’m not going to post a full blown tutorial but post about some of the tricks I learned while creating my front entrance ensemble.

First trick recycling toy containers:

            How to get this:                             to look like this:                 

The picture was sort of painted on the container so I used lots of this to get it off:

The next trick I learned was if you are going to have something much taller than your basket coming out of your basket you need to put some weight in your basket.  I used rocks, but on the really windy days that was enough so I then used a bunji cord to secure it to the pillars (if that’s what you would call them). 

The last trick was that the weeds from the empty field next door make for great fillers (and pretend swords).

That’s it and thanks to everyone who voted for me.
