DIY holiday stockings

Materials:

Pre-gessoed canvas cloth

Scissors

Sharpie marker

Needle and thread

Craft stencils

Benjamin Moore paint samples in “Indi Go-Go”, “Pink Mix” and “Frostine”

Faux fur trim

How To:

Draw the outline of a stocking on the canvas cloth and cut out 2 reverse pieces.

Using a needle and thread, hand stitch the edges together.

Base coat both sides of the stocking with a paint colour of your choice and then layer over a stencil pattern.

Add faux fur to the top by hand stitching, and add a small looped piece so that it can be hung by the chimney with care.

*As an alternate to canvas cloth, try making a stocking with inexpensive burlap.
