We don’t have a fireplace to hand our stockings so we decided to make one so our babies could at least enjoy it.

You want to make a not so complete square with packing boxes. We got these from work. Use as much duck tape as you need to make sure it does not move whatsoever.
Do a light coat of white spray paint outside, once dried bring back inside and use a sponge and rustic colored acrylic paint to make the bricks in the pattern of the fireplace.
We ran out of paint so we used brown for the top and black for the side to do like if its chalk board.
On a blank cardboard, dethread orange and yellow yarn to make the look for fire and use paper towels rolls as your log.
Paint with brown acrylic paint and use a sharpie to make swirls and diamond like figures to make your log .
We used small led light found at the dollar store, they are battery operated. They make the fire pop! Hot glue it all together.
And if you want you have your naughty or nice list like chalkboard and your done. Enjoy and hang your stockings!
