3 year old project

So when Preston and I got married we didn't have stockings. The stockings we did have were left at our parent's houses. So I went to Joanne fabric and promised Preston I would make us some stockings of our very own. This year we started decorating for Christmas and set out our stocking holders on the entertainment center soon to realized after 3 years I had still not made any stockings for those holders!!

So I got out my awesome sewing machine and created us some stockings. I finished one and then called it a day. We laughed and said "we hope the second one doesn't take 3 years as well!" But I had the enthusiasm to get up the next day and make the other one.

Here they are:
Here is each stocking on it's holder


Here is our entertainment center. This will be a start to seeing our Christmas decor. We will reveal our little "Arbol" (tree) . That is what we decided to name him!!! More to come!

Merry Christmas everyone.

P.S I normally don't take that long on a project...rare circumstance!!!
