stocking hanger.

It's been a while since I've been on here, I'm going to try to be better about it.  I will also post all oft he renovations we did to the condo soon.  :)
Since I don't have a mantel in my apartment, I needed somewhere to hang stockings.  I happen to have this habit of collecting spoons.  Now I have a use for my collected spoons:  a stocking hanger.  I left the hanger itself mostly undecorated so that I can use it for other things in the future. 
 Bending steel spoons is a big pain.  I boiled a few of the thicker ones.  The spoons are attached with twine.  Glue would be too weak over time and I couldn't think of a feasible way that would look good to attach them to the board. 
Now, its time to make more stockings!
