If you’re into Christmas crafts, and love to decorate your home with traditional Christmas decorations, then you’ll definitely want to look at “In the Workshop,” an 18″ Christmas stocking that is made with a felt applique kit.

Crafted in the U.S.A., Bucilla applique kits come with everything you need to make beautiful, handmade Christmas stockings for your home, your family, and even to give as gifts!

Unlike a lot of Christmas crafts, you don’t have to be an “expert” to make these stockings. Everything you need to complete the project is included in the kit, along with detailed, step by step instructions, so you can make this stocking without worrying about not having something that you need, and it will turn out just like the picture.

It also makes a great family project for a cold, wintry afternoon!

Included in the kit, you’ll find:

Stamped felt
Embroidery floss
Sequins
Beads
Needle
Trilingual instructions
Finished measurements- 18″ long.
Design: In the Workshop.

These kits are not available in stores, however, you can order “In the Workshop” and several others from Amazon.com!

Christmas is only five months away… and if you’re planning a handcrafted, homemade Christmas this year, the time to start is NOW! That’s right. Now. And, one of the best places to get your creativity flowing is within the warm, colorful pages of the Country Living book, The Farm Chicks Christmas: Merry Ideas for the Holidays.

Released last fall, The Farm Chicks Christmas: Merry Ideas for the Holidays is pure holiday magic. Within the 128 pages, you’ll find dozens of ideas for this year’s holiday celebration…from ideas for decorating to Christmas tree trimming tips to the recipe that will fill your house with the aroma of fresh baked cookies… everything you need to create a memorable, magical holiday for your family and friends!

Here are just a few of the wonderful treats you’ll find inside:

Decorative, retro-inspired self-adhesive gift tags and notecards
Holiday scalloped bunting
Vintage-inspired snowball pompom ornaments
Cone trees
Vintage funnel trees

The book also includes 17 mouth-watering holiday recipes, including:

Sweet and salty nuts
Mini orange bundt cakes
Butter cutouts
Chocolate-covered peanut butter balls
Snowballs
Spritz cookies

Sterling publishing describes The Farm Chicks Christmas: Merry Ideas for the Holidays as a “a nostalgic walk down a snowy memory lane,” and quite frankly, if you want to create a home filled with the sounds, sights, and smells of a real country Christmas, this is exactly where you should start.

Merry Christmas!
