This super sweet advent calendar idea from Martha Stewart puts odd-one-out socks to good use.
Decorate clean socks with number stickers or iron-on patches and use clothespins to attach them to a ribbon to give the effect of miniature stockings. For a touch of Dr. Seuss-style whimsy, choose brightly coloured the socks in a variety of sizes. Don’t forget to stash sweet treats and tiny toys inside for children to enjoy!
This project is an easy way to add a little festive flair to a child’s room, a railing or an otherwise neutral nook.
