Red Stripe With Ornament Applique Stocking

Koo Koo Bear Kids -  this site offers a variety of knitted stockings.  Some are just striped, others are striped with appliquéd ornaments or snowmen, and others have little “bobbles!”  These are great for a big family, because each member can have their own design, but all would coordinate!  Personalization comes in red and green. (kookoobearkids.com, $32- $40)

I hope this gets you thinking about your own family’s Christmas Stockings this year and helps you prepare for a fabulous Christmas!
