Christmas Stocking

The Christmas Stocking was originally showcased HERE with Karen's gorgeous wallhanging.  Caroline has now also done this fabulous stocking.

Caroline painted it in red acrylic paint then covered with Croco crackling paint.

Then she covered it with a grey paint to highlight the cracks and quickly wiped off before it dried.

The top of the stocking is painted white and covered in Stickles. Little pom poms have been added to frill.

She then made a hole on the other side of the back part of the stocking so she could add the wire to create a hanger and finished off by using a circular stamp to create the heel and toe effect on the stocking.

    This is great! I love the effect the croco has made. Also like the idea of stamping the heel and toe.
