DYI Christmas Stocking
Because, where else do we keep the coals for our naughty family members? :) But mostly, it was sooo difficult to find a pet version of a stocking that matches everyone else's I just had to sew it myself. It is easy. You will need:
1. Felt in two colours+ a third one for decoration on the front;
2. A ribbon for hanger;
3. Sewing machine and glue gun for the decorations.
Paw version:
Cut two paws in desired size and colour. Cut two strips in the second felt colour.

Sew the two different colours together as shown. Here pictured with H performing quality control. Repeat for both paws.
Turn the red part and stitch your stockings right side in. Attach the ribbon. Turn.
You should have something like this.
Missing something? Glue little felt decorations so it looks like a real paw:
Human version:
It's a very similar process, I just used a non-felt top part and didn't cut it in two before attaching to the stocking (see photos). For front decorations you can use the ideas from the felt Christmas tree project.

Happy Holidays and have fun filling the stockings. Or even better, emptying them. :)
