There is nothing like the feeling of pulling out the Christmas decorations, drinking hot cocoa, and setting up all the little trinkets and decor that we've collected over the years. Stocking's are my personal favorite. Over-stuffed with candy and toys, ours were personalized to each member of the family; ensuring everyone felt included and represented in the holiday cheer.

But.. if you still feel like your collection of Christmas decor is still looking small; here are some fun ways to use leftover yarn in your stash.
