Stocking question

I know this is a tad early, but I have seen Christmas decorations in stores lately and it got me thinking...we are going to have a new little one this Christmas. Which means we will have an extra stocking to hang up this year. So my questions is...those of you who hang them up, do you have matching ones for you and your H and your family or do you just have random ones that you hang up?

Re: Stocking question

  • Ours are fit to personality at our house. At my parents' house, we've all got matching ones. At my grandparents' house, we've all got one that we got for our very first Christmas that's got our name on it - but it's just the plain, red stocking.

    We don't do stockings at H's family things.

  • We don't have matching stockings per say but the stockings for DH and I kind of go with the theme I have for my decorations. Last year I didn't really want to get M a baby's first Christmas stocking since we wouldn't use it the year following so I got her a pretty girly stocking she could use for years to come.

  • I got four PBK stockings. One for the three of us, and then another to match the set I bought in case we have another child in the future. They each have a Christmas character on them. Bentley has an airplane, Tyler is the nutcracker, I'm a snowman and the next child has a reindeer. They're all embroidered with the name...except the last one. :)

  • We have stockings that match my decor.  Brynnleigh will probably get a "1st Christmas" stocking and then she will move on to the matching ones.  I just so happen to have 5...  Yes, each of my dogs get their own stocking.   
  • We have stockings that sort of match each other and my decor, but I am currently working on cross stitching all of us stockings.  I have mine and C's cross stitched and DH's is almost done.  I hope to have them hanging before Christmas this year.
  • JJ didn't have a stocking his first year because he was three weeks old and just got wrapped presents. I mean, we put up a little baby stocking for him or whatever, but it wasn't that big of a deal for us because he was so small.

    The family stockings match - we have four [me, mom, dad, sis] and one that our two dogs share. JJ gets his own special stocking that my mom found [elmo]. H doesn't have a stocking yet, but since he probably won't be here for Christmas this year anyway, not a big deal. We'll find matching stockings for me, him and JJ during the after Christmas sales.

  • We have random ones.  My H's is one that his Grandmother made for him when he was born and mine changes every time I see a new one I like.

  • Ours are both gold and match my tree skirt, our stocking hangers are more our peronality though mine is a fleur de lis and H's is a a big metal with a cowboy and boots on it. I am sure it will all change when we have a baby though.

  • How sad is it that I have no idea!  I think they may sort of match though

  • Conner has a PBK airplane one with his name...I'll order Carson's stocking once they become available. Eleanor has a cat stocking and Lilly has a dog bone shaped one. H and I don't have stockings here but have one at my mom's house.
