    First, you'll require a fabric stocking to use. You can purchase a very inexpensive stocking at your local thrift store.

  2. Step 2

    Select a photo that you intend to use on the stocking. Print it onto a 4 inch by 6 inch sheet of postcard-stock picture paper. You could also use a snapshot you have around the house, but it might not be quite as sturdy.

  3. Step 3

    Now you will use a strong craft glue to adhere the photo to the stocking. Try to center it in the middle.

  4. Step 4

    The final step is to write the name of the person the stocking belongs to. Wrie it along the top cuff with a fabric pen or fabric paint.

  5. Step 5

    Once the stocking is dry, you can hang it on your mantle, or fill it with goodies and give it as a unique personalized gift.

Tips & Warnings
  • Personalized photo stockings are a unique gift idea for a small budget. It can cost you less than ten dollars!
