On the fifth day of Christmas Beyond The Picket Fence showed me...a different place to hang a stocking (not the best rhyme tonight, sorry). Oh, and before I forget, the Under $100 Linky Party will post as planned tomorrow evening, it will just also have my day 6 idea.
No fireplace? Want somewhere different to hang a stocking? How about a locker basket?
Hang it on a couple nails on the wall. You could then use an S hook, a ribbon or curtain hooks like I did to hang your stockings. You can read about the
stockings here.
The possibilities from there are endless. I added a bowl for cards and a few favorite Christmas books. One of those is Tasha Tudor's
Becky's Christmas. The elementary school where I used to teach was discarding and the librarian knew I loved it so she gave it to me!
You could attach cards or Christmas photos with clothespins, hang Christmas ornaments or balls inside, add a candle (it is a metal basket).
No locker basket? Use a sturdy woven basket or a wood crate. Get creative with it! Find more great ideas at

I like it!

Cute. Since we have a wood burning stove, ours hang on a canoe paddle with pegs on it. It works. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for voting for our Christmas card pic. Hubby and I are still debating. :)
Cute and . . . I have that same bowl. It always strikes me as fun when I see the stuff I have on other people's blogs. Yes, I'm a dork. ;)
