No Mantle for Stockings?

I didn't consider how important a mantle is to my Christmas decorating until it was time to HANG THE STOCKINGS FROM THE CHIMNEY WITH CARE!

LAWD!  NO MANTLE!  WHAT US GON' DO?

Why...use Command hooks and hang them along the staircase, of course!  

Do you hang stockings?  If you don't hang them from the mantle, where do you hang them?
