Decorating Prep

The proverbial fly in my holiday decorating ointment has always been the instability of my stocking hangers.  I love the hangers, a set of pewter reindeer and santa's sleigh, but my mantle was wobbly.  We fixed the wobble the first year.  The second year we updated the stain to match the wood floors.  But still the decorative molding has always been an issue.  It pushes the holders too far out for them to be stable.  This year Sid made a set of flat faced extension panels to extend just past the molding.  Sunil is staining them to match the mantle.  This year we may not need to tie the reindeer to the sleigh.
