39 Days Till Christmas: Stocking Stuffers

Amanda — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 12:17:37 +0000

I didn’t grow up in a household where stockings were stuffed each year as part of the Christmas tradition so when I got married we decided to start our own family tradition. Each year we would stuff a stocking for each other full of inexpensive things and gradually this grew to include any immediate family members who might be sharing the start of Christmas morning with us. We tend to open our stockings first thing and then go to church. Bigger presents are saved for after lunch.

So, with stocking stuffing season speedily approaching may I suggest a few ideas. Here they are, these can all be found in my Etsy shop:

When you look at the countdown to Christmas in the number of days it doesn’t seem so far away. If you are stuck for ideas as to what to give to someone special, perhaps something here might help solve that problem. I always think its nice to be able to give something which has had thought put into the creation process, this is why its so good to connect to the many people around the world who take the handmade pledge each year (only to purchase hand made items as gifts). Buying hand made supports your local small business as well as the many other benefits that come with stopping waste enter our landfill (by purchasing upcycled and recycled items).

If you are considering buying handmade this year, here are some creations by Polyclarific that might interest you (click on the pictures to go to the direct listing);
