Painted Christmas Stocking
For this month’s Thrifty Style Team collaboration, I’m sharing a painted Christmas stocking that will be one of my niece’s Christmas gifts this year.
I’m sharing my painted Christmas stocking for this month’s Thrifty Style Team project hosted by Julie of Redhead Can Decorate.
Painted Christmas Stocking
This was an easy project that I enjoyed completing.
Supplies
- Wood Stocking
- Red Paint
- Glitter Snow
- Paint Brush
- Drill
- Wood Putty
- Sanding Block
Instructions
Drill a hole in the wood stocking for hanging. If the wood cracks like mine did, repair it with wood putty, and sand smooth.
Use Glitter Snow to make the stocking’s cuff. I did three coats using short brush strokes.
Add a twine hanger and enjoy.
I made a second painted stocking to give to a former student who is one of my two daughters of the heart. She is a college girl and is starting to collect things to use to decorate her future home. I hope she likes it as much as I do.

This is so cute, Paula!!! I love how bold and cheery it is. Wonderful for Christmas memories.
Thank you so much, Mary Beth.
So cute:)
Thank you so much, Lora.
These are so stinking cute, Paula! I can’t believe the cuff is made from glitter snow that is so cool. These would be perfect for my Candyland theme so I can’t wait to save these to try next year. I love them so much! Hugs, CoCo
Thank you so much, CoCo.
Merry Christmas Sweet Paula!!!
Merry Christmas to you! Headed your way Saturday and staying through Christmas. I can’t wait!
This is a great idea, Paula! Merry Christmas to you, and your family. I am praying for you & your mom daily 💕
Thank you so much, Julie!
I like the technique you used for the “fur.” Thanks for sharing at Vintage Charm!
It worked like a charm!
Paula, this is such a cute stocking and I love how simple it is! I had no idea you could order these already cut out. That saves so much time for someone like me who doesn’t use power saws. I hope you have a Merry Christmas with Sherman and Mr. SP.
Thank you so much, Angie!
The glitter snow was the PERFECT touch to this sweet stocking! Hoping you have a Merry Christmas, friend. xoxo, kristi
