DIY Christmas Stockings from Vintage Wool Baby Socks

Being a grandmother for the first time this summer
gave me a new appreciation for baby clothes.

As the mother of four girls, I was especially excited about buying baby boy clothes for the first time. 

In a bag of hand-me-down baby clothes I was surprised to find a few pairs of vintage baby socks.

The socks had such a beautiful vintage texture and color.

Who in the world would even think of putting these wool socks on the baby? They were headed for Grandma's craft room for sure! I decorated each sock with red ribbons of all kinds and vintage buttons and bows.
