NBR: Christmas Stockings
I don't know if we've talked about this because I'm not on here a ton, but what do you put in your DH's stocking and what do you get in yours? DH and I don't exchange presents and since we aren't really getting presents from our families this year I figured I should make our stockings count. In the past we mostly just gave each other candy and maybe a paperback or some gift cards but I'm trying to think of something better for this year...

I love it when he puts jewelry in mine. We do stockings last and it's nice to have a "big" surprise still left after we open the presents under the tree!
I am responsible for filling all the Christmas stockings, including my own (although DH may slip in extras.) My stocking is usually similar to theirs - razors, bookmarks, etc. My stocking this year is expected to include Lara Bars, a new water bottle, some Frixion pens, some items from Staples' arc notebook line, socks, the reusable produce bags I like, (bicyle) tire levers, a fixed circular knitting needle in a size I need for lace, and a candle.

Jennie Writes Words ~~~ We Still Read ~~~ Presidential Challenge
I made our stockings and didn't use a pattern (my reasoning was it's a sock shape, how hard can it be?). As a result they're GIGANTIC. Like 3 times the normal stocking size. Every year I say I'm going to get us reasonably sized ones but DH loves the humungo ones and they actually are kind of fun to try and fill. It's a challenge every year, haha.
This year, he'll get a tshirt, 2 pint glasses and a stein, a 750 mL bottle of beer, a back scratcher, a card game, 4 laser pointers that strap to your fingers (inside joke), and then whatever amount of candy I need to fill in the spaces.
