Day #2 – Make a Christmas stocking
We made Christmas stockings last year and my little girl loved it! So this year, I made sure I planned making Christmas stockings into our list of advent activities.
Today’s day #2 of Christmas countdown and it’s the day I’ve planned to make Christmas stockings and that’s what we did this afternoon.
Posing with the materials:
This year I used foam sheets instead of red construction paper. You can actually cut out another identical stocking and ‘sew’ the pieces together to get a real stocking, but I wanted a simple and quick activity so we just went with this.
I provided her with a wide range of embellishments and glitter glue.
Busy at work:
And here’s the final product! (I added her name with glitter glue). I think it looks very cute! 🙂
