Tis the season for giving to those we love. Often even gifts to those we may not know at party gift exchanges. I love pretty wrapped gifts! I also love stockings.
Hence a great idea for giving gifts is to place a few items in a stocking. Cute stockings can be found at Dollar Tree, Everythings a $, etc. For my families stockings I use nice stockings. However, for gifting in place of a gift bag or wrapped gift the cheaper version is great. In fact at the dollar type stores you can find nice things for stuffing the stockings. People enjoy 'digging' thru the stocking for their surprises! Following are some examples I have for the stockings that will be used for the drawings @ CUPC Christmas Banquet:
cheese spread
crackers
candy
Christmas mug
2 pkgs of hot chocolate
dis towel
Little Debbie christmas tree cakes
candy
candle
cookies
candy
All the items were purchased at Dollar Tree. I know most people will be excited to be a winner.
My family loves receiving their stockings on Christmas morning. Kent even fills one for me. I put some fun, some useful, and even some necessity items in the stockings. One year we put several gift cards in the kid's stockings and finished filling with their favorite snack itesm.
Each year I edeavor to think of new things....If stockings aren't a part of your family tradition, try it. Everyone will love you for it!!!
Merry Christmas!!!
