Chenille Stem Stocking Craft

A finished example of the decorative stocking for a dollhouse at
Christmas time.
       In the traditional Christmas colors: red and white, this vintage stocking would look awesome hanging from a mantel, on the front door of a dollhouse, or hung decoratively on any wall where your dolls need a bit of Christmas cheer.
Supply List:
  • chenille stems (two or three red
  • white pom pom trim
  • one silver metallic chenille stem
  • one white chenille stem
  • light weight cardboard
  • white school glue

Step-by-Step Instructions:
  1. Draw an outline of a simple stocking on a light weight piece of cardboard.
  2. Cut the stocking out and smear a light coating of white school glue over the front side.
  3. Wrap the cardboard cut-out using fuzzy, red chenille stems. Wrap these close together in order to cover all of the cardboard surface. 
  4. Leave a place for a cuff at the top of the stocking for white chenille stem wrap and lettering. Wrap this with white chenille stem first.
  5. Glue on the pom pom trim at the bottom edge of the white cuff.
  6. Shape ''Ho, Ho'' using the red chenille stems and glue these to the white cuff.
  7. Add a bent, metallic chenille stem wire for the stocking to hang from on the dollhouse door or wall or banister.
