Christmas Stocking Decorating

Christmas stockings are an integral part of the Christmas tradition for many families. Many people choose to purchase a plain Christmas stocking in order to add their own embellishments, thus creating their own personalized stocking, and a beautiful Christmas heirloom as well. Start by determining who will be creating the embellished stocking and who they will be personalizing the stocking for. If your child is creating the stocking and it is for a dad, brother or uncle who loves sports, then choosing simple appliques that have a cute sports theme works perfectly. Add some glitter, sequins or puff paint to the mix and your child will have a field day creating a beautiful personalized stocking for someone special. These gifts are also great for secret Santa gifts, gifts for teachers, coaches or babysitters. In order to keep things simple, check out the huge array of great Christmas stockings at Bronners.com.
