How to Make a Go-Go Boot Christmas Stocking

Remove laces from boot. Cut two 6-inch pieces of the purple ribbon. Hot-glue each end of the ribbon on either side of the boot seam to create a hanging loop. Use a generous amount of hot glue to keep the ribbon from ripping off with the weight of all the gifts that are sure to be stuffed into your boots.

Determine the size of the shag fur to go around the top of the boot. Leave at least a 5-inch overhang so when the boot is closed, the fur will cover the top of the boot tongue.

Hot-glue the fur to the inside of the boot. Press down firmly with your fingers to help secure.

Lace the ribbon in the boots, but only go about halfway up. If necessary, add some newspaper or plastic packing material to give the boot's foot and ankle structure without weight. Lace up the rest of the boot and tie the ribbon, letting it hang down.

Hang the boots on the mantel, making sure they are at least 12 inches from an open flame or heat.
