Hanging stockings with great care.

Hanging Christmas stockings can be tricky business if you don’t have a cute mantle or stair railings or even a decent shelf.  I remember taping ours to the wall many years ago in one of our first apartments.  Real festive Lindsey.

Here’s a genius idea that I wish I would have thought of back then: a coat rack! Spiff it up with some peppermint paint and new knobs and you’re all set for the big day. Plus, unlike stockings taped to the wall, they won’t fall down immediately when you actually try to put things in them. But seriously though, who could have possibly seen that coming?
