Day 12 …

One final day, which I think calls for a finale! So, I’ve gathered twelve fun stocking stuffers for day 12.

one.
Let’s start with a stocking you can stuff full of coins or candy. I think it’s just about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen and for only $7, it would make a great "babysitter" gift!

If by chance you’re into colorful socks like me, you’d better go here now.

two.
Speaking of color, how cool and compact is this little set of watercolors? $15 at Restoration Hardware. Restoration Hardware has great stocking stuffers btw — most are NOT available online, but if you have a store local to you, you’ll still find LOTS of great and affordable options!

three and four.

Two more from Restoration Hardware! When’s the last time you played pick-up sticks or marbles? After the kids have tired of their electronics, there is much fun in these time-honored pasttimes.

Williams Sonoma fresh peppermint-swirl marshmallows — need I say more?

seven.
Love fun stuff like this …

it’s a treasure map puzzle in a bottle! More cool stuff like this from Magic Cabin!

eight.
How about a sheet of personalized photo-stamps! Yes, they cost a bit more than the already expensive .39 cents, but they are exceptionally good at inducing smiles! Learn more here.

ten.
OK, love this — got it for Geof’s stocking. I never know what to put in his stocking and now I’m so excited for him to discover this!!!

it’s a digital picture keychain! I can load it up with 50+ photos and he can take it with him everywhere — wow?

eleven.
Do you have any idea how much laughter this will elicit from my Chase?
I realize there may be some who find this in bad taste — I’m a mother of boys, what can I say?

pooping reindeer — he’ll be rolling on the ground!

twelve.
If all else fails you can fall back on the beef stick.

you can’t go wrong with the beef stick.

Happy Shopping!

    Pooping reindeer! That’s funny! I love it and I don’t have any children yet!
    Thanks for all the great stuff you blog, Stacy! You truly have changed my thinking about scrapbooking and I am loving it and anything you do! You’re my personal cheerleader and continue to be part of my happiness! Thanks so much for sharing your life and the lives of your family with us.
    God bless you!
    Ann

  5. Thnaks for sharing your “12 days”. I’ve checked on it daily. The best find for me was the carpet skates. (I have boys too!) They are always playing mini hockey in the family room. These are perfect!! Thank you!

  6. Joanna Campbell says:

    I have so enjoyed looking at your blog every day for some really cool ideas. Hope you do this again next year, it has been most helpful. Especially the stocking stuffer things. Thanks, again, for taking the time that I didn’t have.

  7. Stacy,
    Did you include the link for the stamps? I couldn’t click on anything????
    Really enjoyed looking at all your little treasures these last few days!

  8. Thank you so much for all the WONDERFUL gift ideas…especially the 12 stocking stuffers!!! You helped solve a few last minute shopping dilemas!!

  9. Stacy – Thanks for taking the time to do this – it was very fun and I got some great ideas. BTW – I got the pooping reindeer for my dad’s stocking last year :) It was a bigger hit than the huge electronic gift my sibs and I went together and got him. Go figure – kind of like the box my then one year old played with all day :) Merry Merry Christmas! Allison

  10. I’m laughing about the “pooping” reindeer. My boys would also get a kick out of those! Thanks for sharing.

  11. Heather in Washington State, USA says:

    No, no, not the beef stick!
    Love the little sock purse!

  12. That just really made me smile. Even the beef stick (because deep down inside, everyone loves those). All your gift ideas were great and I even bought the Gorilla Pod for my brother – I get Real Simple, too but it was you reinforcing their choice that made me get it! Thanks for the inspiration!

  13. I ordered 2 of the digital key chains – thanks for all the great ideas!!

  14. You rock! The sock coin purses from Little MissMatched were just what I needed for my daughter’s friends! Just ordered 3. Thanks for the great resource. Have a great day!

  15. I had to laugh at the pooping reindeer – my mum got those for the grandchildren one year, and they ADORED them. She, too, was a mother of boys LOL

  16. Your ideas have been absolutely wonderful, Stacy! I ordered some jewellery yesterday and I know it will be very loved by the recepients. Thank you for sharing such good stuff. You must do it again next year!

  17. This was so fun for you to do, especially during such a busy time! I am kind of sad it’s ending. Merry Christmas to you and your family. :)

  18. Thank you for posting all the wonderful things.. and I will have to get the pooping reindeer…my grandsons will love them.

  19. Thanks so much, Stacy, for sharing all these wonderful gifts. The pooping reindeer would be the hit at my house and both my children are grown and married. In fact, my son-in-law would be leading the jokes.

  20. LOL the reindeer. so cute, and funny.
    what a great list. thanks for sharing.

  21. what a wonderful list. the riendeer. LOL.

    A million thanks from teachers everywhere for not suggesting a MUG for a gift. Yep, my husband and I are both teachers and wow, could those mugs we receive fill a house if we kept them all. Gotta love the Barnes and Noble card! Also, restaurant gift cards and Starbucks cards area great (even for non-coffee drinkers). My favorite gift? I received, just before winter break, a basket with chocolates, People and Us magazines, sparkling cider, a fancy plastic cup, and bath cubes. It was nice to know someone thought I deserved a break! Also, Blockbuster popcorn buckets stuffed with candy and a rental card for movies…hey, sometimes there’s no new Netflix in the house! Again, bravo on the no-mug thing!

  23. Thanks for all the cool ideas! I ordered on of those photo keychains for my hubby after seeing it on here!

  24. How sad is it that I cant decide which my husband would like better—the pooping reindeer or the keychain!? :P

  25. heather Ferris says:

    I love the personalized pencils!
    When my sisters and I were kids my mother ordered them each year from the Miles Kimball catalog to put in our stockings. We thought it was so cool that Santa put our names on them. I also remember wondering if there were other kids who got pencils w/ their names on ‘em. Good memories – thanks for the trip down memory lane. Have a wonderful Christmas.

  26. Oh wow! So much cute stuff! Thanks for all the great ideas :-)

  27. Kathleen Desio says:

    Thanks so much for the ideas! I braved the mall tonight and went to Restoration Hardware with my husband to snag the watercolor sets for my 2 boys. They had alot of cool stocking stuffers. Next…the reindeer!

  28. Sherry Eckblad says:

    Thank you for telling me about Little Missmatched. Love the socks ordered 2 different sets and got one free and am totally loving the mixing and matching.

  29. Okay, gotta have one of those keychains. Oh, and is their a Restoration Hardware in Spokane? I just love that store.

  30. So fun! My girls got a bunny, like the reindeer, and had to get there grandfather a chicken like it for Easter. It made for a lot of laughs. Those are all really cute gifts. TFS!
