Stocking Stuffer

My Favorites
The stocking stuffer has always been my favorite. My mom Santa would always fill our stockings with the best little things. She would wrap everything, and usually they’d be spilling out the side into a pile on our designated chair. We always opened our stockings first thing Christmas morning.
Now that I’m a Mom and Santa’s helper, it’s my turn to make Christmas special for all my boys. Of course, they will get a big gift, but the little ones can be more personal and special. Or just fun!
So, I’ve come up with a few items for everyone on your gift list. We own all of these items. Some I have purchased, while others have been sent to me or given to me for review. We do use and love them all…which means I still have to get things for my boys’ stockings.
That’s OK. I like to shop.
If you wish to purchase any of these gifts for your loved ones, I have included my affiliate links within and at the end of the post. Just click on the highlighted text or picture to be taken directly to the product. At no cost to you, I will make a small commission.
Let’s get started.
The Gift of Smell
Essential Oils and Aroma-therapies are all the rage right now…and for good reason. They smell wonderful and have some great health benefits. They can be added to homemade cleaners, lotions, or just diffused in your home.
Which brings me to my first gift…This adorable Aroma Diffuser from Arespark. It’s small enough to fit in a stocking, but gives off enough scent to fill the whole room. It also diffuses oils with ultrasonic vibrations instead of heat, so your oils don’t lose any of their valuable properties. It has 7 different colors, so not only does it make your whole room smell good, but it makes it pretty festive too. Here’s a look at ours and some of the colors.
When you give this stocking stuff, you can personalize it by choosing oils/fragrances that your person really likes. Right now, my favorite is peppermint, but I would love to get some sweet orange and lemon.
Hint, hint husband.
Another aromatherapy gift, is this awesome Heart Aromatherapy Essential Oil & Diffuser Necklace. My husband got this for me for my birthday, and I love it. It comes with little discs that you put a drop of oil on, then put inside the locket. I put a drop of Lavender, slip it around my neck when I’m in bed reading, and it relaxes me for bed. Plus, you can use other fragrances and wear it during the day because it’s so beautiful.
The Gift of Creativity
Both my husband and oldest son are very artistic and creative. I love to find them things that they can work with and/or make. I was sent these amazing Paint Sticks called Kwik Stix made by The Pencil Grip. They are made from solid Tempera paint, they are non-toxic, and they dry super fast. My son LOVES using them. He even made both of his Grandparents Thanksgiving pictures with them. I’m betting they’ll get some Christmas ones too.
Along with the fabulous paint markers, they also sent us some of their Pencil Grips. I was so excited to give these to my son because he’s been having a hard time getting his grip correct when writing. These helped him so much!
The Gift of Protection
I don’t know about you, but I am always dropping my phone or losing it. I was in desperate need of a way to both protect it, and help me keep track of it. My phone is a HTC One M-8, so I often have problems finding a case for it. Luckily Reiko sent me the Reiko 3-In-1 Wallet Case for HTC One M8 Mini with Navy Interior .
It’s perfect. Not only does it protect my phone, but now I don’t have to keep track of my wallet too. Everything is all together. It came in a vibrant green/blue color, and it fits perfectly into my purse (and a stocking!)
The Gift of Entertainment
I don’t know about your family, but ours loves to watch movies. Now, mostly we have to watch animated movies, so when there’s one that we can all enjoy, it’s pretty exciting. During Black Friday, I got the kids Inside Out.
They LOVE it. I love it. My husband even watched it. I caught him smiling and tearing up at one point. Ok. Maybe not tearing up, but he liked it.
I also got him a Christmas Classic, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. He’ll have to watch that one after the kids go to bed.
Movies make a great stocking stuffer for everyone. Add in some candy and popcorn, and you’ve got a movie night all set up.
The Gift that keeps on Giving
If none of these gifts are jumping out at you, and you want to do something a little more meaningful, how about a donation to a wonderful organization like The TTTS Foundation or The March of Dimes? Both are tax-deductible, and you will be saving the lives of babies. What better gift is there than that?
To Donate to the March of Dimes on Behalf of our Team, please click HERE then print out this certificate and stick it in the stocking.
To Donate to the TTTS Foundation, please click HERE then print out this certificate as a stocking stuffer.

Did this give you some ideas? Can you believe how fast the holidays are approaching?!
Love essential oils! I don’t have a diffuser though – need that!!! PS I love the new look of your blog!
Thank you so much! 🙂
I’ll take any stuffing filled with National Lampoons! My favorite Christmas movie!!!
My husband’s too 🙂
I always struggle to find personal stocking stuffers for everyone. Never would have thought along the lines of some of these ideas. Like smell and protection.
These are all such creative ideas! I love that some of them give back to the community! Thank you for sharing.
Great ideas! I really love coming up with fun stocking stuffers for my family. Sometimes the little things at the bottom of the stocking are the best 🙂
I totally agree!
These are such great stocking stuffers! I had no idea that the essential oil necklace existed. Going to check that out right now! 🙂 Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome! It’s awesome!
I love stocking stuffers too!
My mom always gives me pretty practical items in my stocking and its nice because then I don’t have to buy them for the rest of the year almost.
xoxo, Jenny
Exactly!
Such unique ideas! I used to love those pencil grips! They were such a big deal when I as a kid haha
I know! I got so nostalgic when I saw them 🙂
Great list- I like the way you organized the post as well 🙂 My favourite things in my stocking are always socks and a book ^.^

Nice. Thank you!
What a great list! Those paint sticks look fantastic! Do they smear? I might need to grab some for the toddler.
They actually dry really quickly, and didn’t make any mess…which was a wonderful surprise.
My son loooooves hot wheels cars so we are going to fill his stocking with them. He gets so excited and ALWAYS has one with him!
My boys are the same about trains 🙂
These all look great! I love that heart necklace diffuser! How creative!

I love stockings as well – even though they are not a thing in Germany, we brought that tradition with us – these are some great ideas! I just love these little extra surprises!
Thank you!
I would love a diffuser! And I am always dropping my phone too, and my son likes to throw it……. My cases are always breaking!
This diffuser is seriously awesome.
I need one of those diffuser…I have some essential oils and would love to use them more
This is a great list of mixed items. I actually have a humidifier on my wish list. I had one of the Vick’s ones because I get sinus infections and when I discovered essential oils started using it for that as well but it died on me after many years of service.
Stocking stuffers are often some of the best gifts because they are sweet little surprises.
I like the mix. I’m also looking for a phone cover for the new iphone I got my mom for Christmas.
I totally agree….stockings are my favorite. 🙂
I’ve always wanted to get into essential oils. . .which ones are you favorite besides lavender?
I really like the peppermint a lot. I’m just starting out too, but I want to get lemon and sweet orange.
Those are all great and original ideas. I am essential oil junkie and sell DOTERRA. I love those oils. I also like the squishy pen thing you showed. That was really cool!
Thanks! Yes, it’s really been helpful for my son.
Great gift ideas! I love the diffuser necklace! I am going to have to drop a hint to the hubby about that one!
Yes! It’s so nice.
What great ideas. I love essential oils, we diffuse ours everyday.
Great list- I’ll take some of the “gift of smell” – please! Now that I work from home, boy can I smell it when the carpet smells like dogs, or the house smells like dogs! Those aroma items look wonderful!
Ha ha! Our living room used to smell of spoiled milk from toddlers dropping their sippy cups on the carpeted floor. We solved that by ripping out the carpeting, and now diffusing oils 😉
Great ideas! I still get a stocking from my parents and it is definitely one of my favorite parts of Christmas! So fun.
What a great list of gift ideas for everyone. I guess diffuser is the most popular gift among your list. I’d like one too lol
Our stockings growing up were always pretty simple. My mom included an orange as that was something really special when she was young and a few little things. I like the idea of essential oils! I asked for a diffuser this year.
I really love ours. The scent is so much better than from a candle.
I love all your ideas. Thanks for posting this list.
Thank you!
Such a great list!! Thanks for the ideas.
You’re welcome! Thank you for reading 🙂
You really can’t go wrong with gifting a diffuser!
I am really digging those paints! Never seen anything like those.
Great ideas! Thanks! :))
I haven’t even started my Christmas shopping yet but I only have 2 people to buy for this year (secret santa) so it shouldn’t be too bad!
These are great stocking stuffers! Especially the phone covers since I tend to drop my phone a lot lol
Nice post! All this aroma stuff makes a great gift every time. I was also thinking about giving something like that to my relatives and friends but than I decided to get them some tea-themed gifts instead.
Nice. Tea is always a great gift too.
I will need to put a phone case in mine.. and the pencil grippers are a goood idea for my daughter’s
Yes! They are awesome.
Sweet ideas! I’d love a new phone case or DVD myself. I always forget about stocking stuffers!
They are the best!
These are really awesome Shann! I love every single one of these suggestions! Sharing on my page!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!
I love essential oils and I have a diffuser very similar to that one. That def would make a nice gift for any woman! (Maybe some men too!?!)
Yes. I think my husband likes it more than I do.
Stockings are my favorite thing to do! We have such fun filling them each year for the grown kids as well as the little ones! And each other! My favorite thing on Christmas morning is to open my stocking from hubby
Yes! I totally agree.
I’m going to check out those paint sticks for my youngest. I love getting my sons fun socks for their stockings!
Oh! I forgot all about those. I did get them some Star Wars socks 🙂
These are really great ideas that are not ‘of the norm’ stocking stuffers. I particularly love the idea of the necklace that doubles as an aromatherapy diffuser. I love it!
Thank you so much!
Visiting from PMB and I have to say I love how you covered all age groups. There is something for everyone here. Off to share.
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Ohh diffusers are such a good idea!
Thank you! This one is great, and not very expensive.
This list is great! We take stockings as a chance to give them a whole lot of new creative things.
Wonderful!
Stocking Stuffers are so much fun. My husband’s family has never done stockings, and it’s so strange without them for Christmas. I like how you categorized thee ideas, and I wouldn’t have thought of essential oils. Great idea!
That would be strange without them. I think you need to get them to start 😉
I have purchased the gift of smell and entertainment this year for stocking stuffers.
Awesome!
These are great ideas! I have all my shopping done except for my stocking stuffers!
Perfect. I hope this helps!
Great picks! I would love to find that diffuser in my stocking and those markers would be perfect for my nephew!

Yes! The paint markers are really awesome, and you can’t go wrong with the diffuser. It works really well, and the colors are so cool.
I’ve never seen a locket like that to carry the fragrances in! Love it! And homemade gifts are always one of my favorites. I save them and they make me happy year after year. Love the popcorn movie set. And thank you, because I’ve been at a loss to find something for my in laws. The popcorn movie set is perfect!
Hooray. Glad to help! 🙂
Oo phone cases! I had forgotten about those, that’s perfect for my mom’s stocking. Thanks for sharing this list!
Yes! Perfect for just about everyone. 🙂
I love the Aroma from aerospark it looks so cool and have a good smell.
Yes. It’s awesome!
Stocking stuffers are my favorite part of Christmas! This is a really good list and gave me some last week gift ideas.

Awesome! Thank you!
What a great round up of stocking stuffers! I feel like I am the only person who doesnt use essential oils!
I like the idea of donating in someone’s name. That’s a great gift for the person who does not need more stuff.
All cute ideas ,I love the gift of smell myself .thanks for the great list
