DIY Dinkum Festive Stockings and Fireplace
-
01Stocking template
Print out the Stocking Template and cut around the outlines, then use a pencil to trace around the stocking onto the scrap piece of cardboard. Carefully cut around the outline with a box cutter making sure to protect your work surface with a cutting mat or scrap cardboard. -
02Paint Stockings
Paint your stockings to suit your Dinkum or Dinkum Dog’s personality! -
03Personalise
Use a white paint pen to write your special friend’s on their stocking -
04Add your sparkle
Add Bio Glitter from The Glitter Tribe to your stockings for some guilt-free sparkle! Use an old paintbrush to apply the PVA glue, sprinkle over glitter and then shake off the excess. -
05Trace your fireplace
Take the large box and tape up down any loose flaps. On the front of the box, draw an arched fire place with a pencil and steel ruler. We used a dinner plate to create the arc at the top. -
06Cut it out
Carefully cut out the fireplace using a box cutter and a steel ruler as a guide for the straight edges.
-
07Paint the front
Use a white paint pen to add some brick details to the front of the fireplace, if you don’t have a paint pen, you can always use white paint for this step.
-
08Don't forget the mantle piece!
Tape or glue the Honeycomb Packaging to the top of the box to create a mantle piece. -
09Place your stockings on the fire place
Attach the Stockings to the top of the fireplace with double-sided tape. To give them a nice shadowline, we also added some small squares of thick cardboard to back of the stockings first. -
10Time to toast some marshmallows!
Add your special Dinkum Friends, ready for some festive fun!
