Christmas Stockings by Janet Lane Walters

Every year. I make stockings for the family. This year 5 were already sent to Florida and 2 to Georgia. The remaining 9 are here under the Christmas tree of the decorated coffee table waiting for opening on Christmas morning. Every year, starting in July or August, I start finding interesting things to put in the stockings. This year, one of the newest are wrist cuffs for the handymen in the family. It's magnatized and will hold nails and screws for when they are  working. 

Will they work, I hope so. 

There are the usual lotions and chapsticks in various flavors. Each stocking has a new ornament for the tree. Everyone gets at least one new pair of socks. Candy also goes into every stocking. This year is the first time I haven't driven myself to the various places so the internet was the source for many of these things. Always fun to do a search for unusual things. 

 

I'm wishing everyone a great Christmas and a wonderful new year.
