Christmas Mantle with Stockings

Filed Under: Christmas, Family Tagged With: Christmas Decorations, Christmas Stockings, sponsored

CHRISTMAS-Mantle

I enjoy decorating our mantle for each season/holiday. I wanted to share our Christmas Mantle this year because we got new stockings. Kenny and I have been married for 10+ years, Dustyn is almost 7 and Carysn is 4. We have always had mismatched stockings, but this year they all match. I couldn’t be more estatic. Our new Christmas Stockings came from Stuck on You.

Christmas Mantle with Stockings

I really like how well made these Christmas Stockings are. I am excited to use them for many more years to come. The stockings arrived in the mail super quick, especially since they are personalized. I picked the little trees because they are adorable, but they also offer striped stockings. These stockings allow customization of your font and font color. While you are customizing you get a live preview of what your stocking will look like.

For the rest of my Christmas Mantle I used some pre-lit garland, a snow globe and chalkboard sign I made, along with a couple of my favorite decorations. I am not the most crafty person, but I am pleased with how it turned out.

Now I just need matching stocking holders for our Christmas Mantle. I would love to find ones that say HOPE. If you find any let me know!


Disclosure: I was sent the stockings in exchange for my honest review. No other compensation was given. All opinions are my own.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.

So it was growing soooooo slow. I finally repotted it a couple weeks ago, moved it closer to a window, and started using plant food from @happyhappyhouseplant. Not sure what made the most difference but the leaf opened and now a new one is already starting. Hoping it won’t take as long this time.
