We have 6 people in our family, so I made two printables, with the titles of 6 classic Christmas books, including the author’s name – just like a book spine would have. Create & print your book titles, or use mine below. Also paint a few smaller books, to act as spacers between the larger books.ģ. I gave the unpainted books 2 coats of paint. I had previously painted a few of these books (seen here), but I gave them a fresh coat so that they would match the books that hadn’t been painted yet. Your books don’t have to match, you’ll need as many books as the number of stockings you’ll be hanging + a few extras. Pick books that are wide enough to hold coat hooks and heavy enough to support the weight once you fill the stockings. I remembered back to the old books coat rack that I’d created for a previous Junkers United event, and it was like someone flipped the switch and lit up the Christmas tree, because I immediately envisioned my stack of old books becoming the coolest old-fashioned Christmas stocking hanger, inspired by some of the most famous Christmas books of all time.ġ. I’ve teamed up once again with the amazing Junkers United group, and you are going to be amazed at all the festive Christmas things that can be done with JUNK! We have 14 feature projects to share with you, that’ll knock your Christmas stockings off!įor my project, I searched through the mountain of “junk” in my workshop, looking to see what inspired me, and my eyes landed on a battered old set of encyclopedias from the early 1900’s. Not only is this the final day in my series, but I have a special treat for you as well.

If you love the old classic Christmas books and movies as much as I do, then the final project in my 12 Days of Christmas series may be just what you need! It’s a Christmas Classics Stocking Hanger, and when you make your own, I guarantee you’ll be the first person you know to have one like it.
