Although the mission of MerryStockings.com is to sell high quality personalized christmas stockings, we recently came across a website that has some really funny stocking stuffer ideas. I am going to detail some funny, not so serious, stocking stuffer ideas here, but if you are looking for more serious stocking stuffers click here for an old post we wrote on stocking stuffers.

Onto the funny stocking stuffers…

Here is the URL of the website that is selling these prank stocking stuffers: http://www.prankplace.com/stockingstuffers.htm

Below is my favorite (this graphic in no way sheds light on my political affiliation)…

Christmas is a time to let out your inner interior designer. When I think of Christmas decorations, I think of a real Christmas tree in the livings room, garland on the mantel and, of course, personalized christmas stockings hanging over the fireplace. But not everyone has the same idea of what makes a traditional Christmas look. Here are some of my favorite, and unusual, Christmas looks from across the country.

Thanks to MJB84, Poppy Wright, Acnatta, Vol-au-Vent, iampeas, and William Couch for the photos.

At MerryStockings, we believe that hanging personalized christmas stockings is a great way to decorate your home for the Holidays. Christmas stockings come in a variety of shapes and sizes, including stockings for pets. But what we want to know is what is the biggest Christmas stocking ever made.

The University of Central Arkansas has the answer. They constructed the world’s biggest Christmas stocking back in 2005, setting a new Guiness World Record. An amazing 11 feet by 13 feet, this Christmas stocking has room for a lot of toys. Over 10,000 of them, as it turns out - that’s how many they collected for Toys for Tots that year.

The World’s Biggest Stocking

Last Christmas, a dispute arose over Target’s Christmas stocking designs. Pottern Barn said that Target copied their designs illegally and filed a lawsuit claiming copyright infringement. Proving that your competitor is copying you can be pretty subjective; you be the judge:

We at MerryStockings are still finalizing our designs for 2007. Help us decide what looks to create and you can get a 20% discount!

Of course young parents are grateful for all gifts, but sometimes those personalized gifts can be extra special. MerryStockings.com knows that when you need a Personalized Christmas Stocking for that baby in your life that you’ll turn to us (hint, hint), but we have a great resource for other Baby Gifts that can be personalized.

One of the most exciting parts about bringing baby home is getting your home ready. You’ve got the nursery and baby-proofing the house but decorating is the fun part.
A new Personalized Christmas Stocking is a fun personalized baby gift that can help get your family ready for baby’s first Christmas. Merry Stockings has Christmas stocking designs to help make decorating for the Holidays fun.
In addition, think about your baby’s first Christmas outfit. A tiny dress or santa pjs can be a lot of fun for Christmas morning.

Are you recently married? Are you going through the exciting process of creating a comfortable space for you and your new spouse? First off all, CONGRATULATIONS from www.MerryStockings.com - you truly are in an exciting time in life. When my wife and I were married a few years back, one of the things we realized as Christmas approached was that we didn’t have personalized christmas stockings to hang from the fireplace. Both sets of our parents wanted to keep our childhood personalized christmas stockings at their homes and so we had to go out and purchase new personalized christmas stockings.

If you’ve found yourself in that same position, www.MerryStockings.com is the place to begin shopping for your new personalized christmas stockings. We’ll have a robust inventory to choose from and hopefully you’ll find just the right pair of Christmas Stockings that can match other fabrics and colors that you already have in your home. Some people want their personalized christmas stockings to match pillows, blankets or perhaps a tree skirt. www.MerryStockings.com will most certainly have what you are looking as you try to coordinate your personalized christmas stockings with your existing home decor.

As previously stated on our blog, MerryStockings will be unveiling a robust line of personalized christmas stockings in a matter of weeks. In our research to find just the right layouts to offer, we came across a product that we think is great, but that we won’t be offering this year - Pet Stockings. I say that we won’t be offering them this year because we may offer Pet Stockings next year (hint, hint). To purchase Personalized Pet Stockings, you should see a resource we found online: http://www.petcarerx.com/PCareRx/xmas.aspx?gclid=CJ-ttvXVgYwCFRdCYQod3nmLxw. They have a great line of Pet Stockings and also offer free embroidery services.

Nobody wants to find coal in their stocking on Christmas morning. These stocking stuffers are not much better. Here, in no particular order, are the top 10 worst stuffers ever found in a stocking.

10. Fruit. If there is any food in a stocking on Christmas morning, it should be chocolate. Or candy. Or a gift certificate to Dairy Queen. Oranges, Apples or Bananas are way too healthy for a stocking and should be thrown directly into the fire.

9. Sea Monkeys. What a let down. These things are supposed to dance to music, do stunts and lounge on a beach behind their sea monkey castle. I want to rule an undersea kingdom, not clean up after creepy slimy water bugs.

8. Clip On Book Light. It’s a great concept and should work as a gift. But it doesn’t. Nobody has ever really used a clip light on book, ever.

7. Cell phone. I’m amazed at all of the cell phone ads around Christmas that offer phones as stocking stuffers. “Merry Christmas! I’ve just committed you to paying $50 a month for the next two years!”

6. Breath Mints. They aren’t candy and kids don’t care about their breath. Where’s the fun here?

5. School Supplies. When you’re right in middle of winter break the last thing you want to think about is school. No matter how cool those neon pencils look, they will just say ‘homework.’

4. Fruit Cake. Picture speaks for itself.

3. Underwear. One day, when you’re a little older, you might appreciate getting underweat as a gift. But when you’re a kid on Christmas morning, underwear (even if you really need them) just takes up valuable stocking space.

2. Your mom’s favorite cd. For some reason, it’s difficult for mothers to understand that just because they really enjoy Kenny G’s greatest hits, their children might not share the same passion.

1. Anything in a blister pack. You know that clear plastic packaging that is impossible to open without the jaws of life. These stocking stuffers are especially aggrevating because there can be some really cool things inside, just under the plastic. But the experience of trying to rip through the blister pack armor, only to tear the instructions in half and slice open your finger in the process really ruins the fun.
