“The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.” Hanging stockings by the fireplace is a long-standing Christmas tradition, one so key that it’s referenced in the first verse of the cherished classic poem that captures the holiday’s magic – “’Twas The Night Before Christmas.” When children and adults alike discover early Christmas morning that those stockings have been stuffed with gifts and gadgets and toys and trinkets, there is no doubt that the man in red paid a visit the night before. 

To ensure that Santa knows what to stuff in the stockings of the good girls and boys of your home – regardless of their age – they may want to include these on their Christmas wish lists. Or if you’re looking for some fun and unique holiday gifts to share with those you love, or need some small “thank you” tokens for the hosts and hostesses of those many festive parties that are dotting your Christmas calendar, I’ve got you covered. (And I won’t judge you if you happen to pick up a few for yourself.)

– Whiffer Sniffer Clip: These scented collectible plush characters are full of personality and charm.
