While my husband and I were in Savannah, Georgia; we stopped in at a wonderful coffee shop called Savannah Coffee Roasters.
I was so excited to see a huge pile of real burlap coffee bean sacks stacked on pallets in the back of the shop. They were priced at $15 each, but it was going to be worth it because I wanted so do a project with a burlap sack. While I was pouring through the many options, a male employee approached us and asked if I had made a selection yet. He seemed eager for me to decide, which I found odd. Once I had, he grabbed the selected sack from my hands, put it in a bag and said “our Managers told us all to take a burlap sack for free since we had so many…so I’m giving you mine. Enjoy!” I was ecstatic and so thankful!
When we returned home from our wonderful trip, I started to work on my stockings. I purchased some creme colored material on clearance at Walmart, inverted all the fabric, cut it in the shape of a stocking then sewed all the edges. Then I cuffed the top and sewed on loops of braided red and white string.
Further, I added our initials and some ornaments. Favorite stockings ever!
Until Next Time,
