FINISHED PRODUCTS:
MATERIALS USED:
- felt pieces bought from Michaels (can also be found at Wal-Mart and Dollarama)
- ribbon from Michaels
- magnet sheet from Michaels
HOW TO MAKE IT:
Step 1)
- select a piece of felt in the color of your choice
- use a pencil to draw out the shape of a stocking to the size you like (draw a slightly wider silhouette than the desired size because after you sew it, the stocking will be smaller)
- cut out the stocking outline and use that to trace and cut out a second piece of the same size
Step 2):
- using a needle and similar colored thread, sew the 2 pieces together but leave the top separated
- try to sew evenly on all the sides (once again, do not sew the top opening)
- when you are done, flip the stocking inside out so that all the stitches are facing the inside
Step 3):
- select a ribbon of your choice
- cut off a piece that fit exactly around the mouth of the stocking with a bit overlap
- use a hot glue gun to glue the ribbon in place
Step 4):
- select another ribbon of your choice and cut off a piece for the handle of the stocking (this will depend on how long you want the handle to be)
- glue or sew the ribbon on the inside of the stocking and make sure the handle is secure
Step 5):
- from your magnet sheet, cut out two small pieces of magnets and glue it to the back of your stocking using a hot glue gun
IT'S DONE!!
