    This would have come in handy 2 days ago when I tried to make my own stocking WITHOUT a pattern, or idea…I still think my stocking came out okay though. :)

    Ahaha when I would read the Giving Tree when I was younger I would always get so angry at the boy. }; He did not deserve that tree. Cute stockings by the way. :D

    Meg is always bomb! Like Bomb-boo!

  • Vanilla1tsp said:

    Cute stuff! Only one thing to say though. Why do you guys wait until THE holiday is here to show how to make cool stuff for it? Why not start the DIY tutorials the month BEFORE the event !!!
    Genius! Then we see the stuff, rock the DIY and we all look like DIVAS of the holiday scenes!! Just a thought .

    Merry merry,
