Stocking Stuffers


Since I started this blog, I’ve had to keep it a secret from my boyfriend because I knew I wanted to do this post and didn’t want to give his stocking away!  I made this for him a couple years ago and he had it visibly hanging in his closet… I hope he didn’t notice I snuck it away so I could stuff it!
Everything cost me about a total of $50.  Most of the ideas for this stocking I came up with on my own, but I found some really helpful stocking stuffer lists on Pinterest. 

Here’s what I put in my boyfriend's:
Chipotle gift card
Fast 5 DVD
Beef jerky
Sharpie pens
Batman Boxers
Lotto tickets
Land O’ Lakes flavored hot chocolate
Lots of candy!

I ended up switching out the Batman boxers for this tie from Kohl’s.  (Croft & Borrow)  My boyfriend is a business major and he has to dress up for class often.  We’re also going to the city after New Year’s and I thought he could wear this tie to class it up a bit!

My stocking stuffer secret weapon:

An orange!  Put it in first for a full/round toe!

These LED flashlights are another great idea.  They have 5 or 6 small super bright bulbs on the inside and are only $1 from Dollar tree!  (The batteries are only $1 too.)  I’ve seen the exact same ones at other stores for way more money, but I have one from the dollar store and can say they actually work!  They work better than a bigger, more expensive flashlight I bought from Wal-Mart.

You can kind of see how super bright white the bulbs are in this picture.

  1. I like how the picture of the orange is next to the boxers....almost implying that the orange would be stuffed in the boxers, not the stocking haha
