I have tons of scraps left over from making my coffee bean bag totes & pillows. I have not been able to throw them out because I knew there would be something cute I could make from them, today I made Christmas stockings! I picked up some sweaters at savers to use as accents, and they turned out so cute! I am going to make them for my whole family, no more "typical" stocking for us! maybe santa will be extra good to me for being so green this year!

The back side has a little coffee bean bag character...
Stay tuned for more, these were my first 3 and I had to put them up right away! Now, how am I going to be able to refrain from cutting up my own sweaters....

Well now, aren't you the clever one!!! They are adorable! Better than anything to be found in a store. Good for you!
Super cute! Sell them on Etsy and
try to get some sleep, you've been up since 3:00 a.m.!
BRILLIANT! I LOVE how you cut new ground. You ROCK. Definately, Etsy needs you here once again.

These are great. Just how big are they? Against the fireplace, they look huge. I love anything with raw natural texture, and these certainly don't disappoint.
Those look great. I love every bit of them.
Those are FABULOUS!

How cute are these???? I'm getting ready to make my family stockings, so I'm definitely taking inspiration from yours....CUTE!
Beautiful, I started some of my own stocking from old sweaters too! I hadn't thought about using burlap though - great idea - I love the look!
Cute and "green". What's not to love! Love the black one.

Missy,
My mother-in-law and the perfect gramma to my three kids and my 5 grandchildren (I started young :-))
passed away yesterday. I have been looking for an idea to use some of her sweaters to make keepsakes for all of the chillin's. I knew if I came to blogland I could count on the creativity of the wonderful individuals here. You have saved the day with your stocking idea. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the gift you have aloud me to copy for all of my family.
