Recycling old buttons for a trim on a stocking...

To make a stocking similar to my own, sew a felt or quilted stocking 
and then attach a collection of beads. This stocking is made of white
and pink felt, then trimmed with felt pine trees and random antique
buttons from my grandmother's old sewing box.

A collection of beads inside of an old canning jar. These may be found in many flee markets.

Santa stocking that I made in the 1990s; his beard trimmed with pearly white buttons in many
sizes. See a similar stocking for dolls here.
 

Folk stars trimmed with buttons too!
