Did you know there are only 221 days until Christmas? Some of us never quite put Christmas away, it’s forever in our heart! We’re always thinking and planning, dreaming up something new and creative, hiding away gifts year-round for the people we love.
Crafters are busy creating their best handmade gifts for holiday fairs that thousands of people count on for their holiday giving. Christmas tree farmers are planting and trimming and shaping; can’t you just see them, smiling and whistling as they do their work? And, even nonprofit organizations are getting in on the fun with their “half-Christmas” benefits.
I read this morning about one such event that takes place in Chaska, Minnesota every year called Christmas in May. Modeled after a national program, groups of volunteers in the Chaska community get together for one day to do home repairs for free for homeowners who apply to the program. They paint. They fix decks. They landscape. And, this year the city is joining in the effort and kicking in new energy efficient appliances, utilizing the funds in their Conservation Improvement Program. Christmas in May has been at this business of blessing the socks off of lower income homeowners now for 17 years.
Are you thinking of someone right now who you’d like to bless the socks off of too? While they’re fresh in your mind, go ahead and browse through our online store and find just the perfect stocking or decoration for them. Not sure what they would like? We’ve got you covered with gift certificates, available in any amount.
We’ve also been busy pulling together some new, fun items that we think you’re going to love. Look for them in our new catalog, due out here in a few short weeks.
So, ignore those naysayers who disparage stores who pull out Christmas items early. It is never too early or too late to show some Christmas spirit!

Today we were sent a completed photo of a completed Bucilla stocking kit entitled “Irish Santa”. The stocking was done very well and looks awesome! Notice the clear sequins were swapped out for a “crystal” look, a very nice touch. Thanks to Betty for sending this in!

In the fall of 2012, MerryStockings partnered with Bucilla and brought to market an old Vintage Bucilla Stocking kit entitled Black Bear Bonfire. This effort was very successful and lots of our Bucilla stocking customers snatched this adorable kit from our virtual shelves. This fun, adorable Christmas stocking kit has matching Christmas tree ornaments. The colors and general motif of the stocking are matched in these ornaments. The Black Bear Bonfire ornament kit has 6 pieces and all the of them are about 5″x 5″ in size. We have an image of the kits shown below and think these adorable ornaments will be a great compliment to the stocking kit. Thanks for your support and if you have questions, comments, or want to see another Vintage kit brought back into production, let us know about it!
Thanks much,
MerryStockings
