I was chatting with my crafty friend Kait and she suggested doing a "stockings were hung" sign. We both have seen such things with hooks on them and those are very ideal for someone who doesn't have a fireplace/mantle....but that doesn't mean I can't use the idea to suit my area! I took a frame that I had already bought, it is a 11x14 with an 8x10 mat in it. I pulled out the Cricut and cut the letters out to spell "The stockings were hung" on a piece of scrapbook paper that has music notes all over it. I used a different size letter for each word. I turned those letters into stickers with my ever-loved sticker maker and stuck them on a piece of dark red paper (the same paper I made my red bags on my advent calender!). I put the sign into the frame and hung in that white space above my mantle!
Below is a picture of the frame before I hung it....it's hard to see when it is hung in a photo because all you can see if the scene that reflects on the glass....it's an issue I will address for next year!
Here is a photo up on the wall!
Want to know about that situation hanging in the middle??? See my next post on it!
