I finally have a solution to my no mantel/no stocking holders issue! Yeah, I could just buy some stocking holders and stick them on the fantel, but I never seem to find any I like and it doesn't seem like very much fun to be out $100 for something that I'm not that excited about.
The best solution is so simple! Isn't that always the way?
I just tied the stockings up with twine and staggered them on the ladder that was already there in the corner of the living room.
Super easy, super cute, super effective!
Kennedy was somewhat concerned that Santa wouldn't be able to reach that high. So we had a good conversation about that.
"What? How tall do you think Santa is? Santa's a man, Kenna. He's like Daddy-sized." It was the best. I got to find a good solution to my problem, and look all cool cause I'm tight with Santa and know how tall he is and stuff.
Just in case you were wondering, I'm also super close buddies with the tooth fairy. We talk on the phone and text all the time. Just ask Kennedy.
But somehow I don't think teeth on a ladder will work quite as well.

This is a great idea! And, super cute -- you totally don't need a mantle :)
I am mantle-less but I am "with ladder" ... woo hoo!! Gonna grab my cool old step ladder and get to hanging! GREAT idea!
Love, love, love! I want a ladder for my stockings too please!
Hi Courtenay! This looks really cute. I did something similar as well. My ladder typically holds blankets in my living room, but it got a Christmas makeover since I am also sans mantle :) Merry Christmas.
This looks so cute! I just saw an old ladder in someone's trash yesterday. Now I wish that I had snagged it.
You know I love me a good ladder project! This is so cute, Court!
This is a great idea! Santa can do anything.
haha...well that is a valid concern! so cute...I also know the toothfairy, funny thing about her is that she has sometimes forgotten to take the teeth from under the pillow...she leaves the money though but I guess in her rush to get out she forgets ....ugh..
Have a Merry Merry Christmas sweetheart ! xo
Love it! I have a mantle but didn't even hang my stockings this year because I thought the baby would tear them down...but if I got a ladder...
I don't have a mantel either! This is such an adorable solution and I love how your daughter thinks. That is so precious, I absolutely love reading about the things kid's say :)
Featured YOU today on my "Best Of The Weekend" post!!! :) Merry Christmas! - Claire
