Fun & useful stocking stuffers?
What does everyone like to get in their stockings. I have to do 2 one for my mom because my dad would be truly hopeless at it and one for the Mr. For my mom I usually get things like lip gloss, pens, razors, maybe an ornamet. With the Mr I usually get him about the same lol, except no lip gloss. Any cute different ideas?

My Blog!
Does your mom do fun socks, like christmas socks?
When I was growing up, I used to get candies, simple jewelry, body lotions, candles, etc in my stocking. I remember my mom used to roll up fun boxers and put them in my brother's stockings, lol. She had to embarrass my sister and I though and include the obligatory thong or panty, lol.
LoL, I just asked my husband, "What are small things that guys need?" His answers: deodorant, condoms, razors and beer.
I actually think a bottle of wine would be a fun unique thing to put in a stocking.
Here's what I get in mine:
purse size tissues, lip stuff, travel sized anything my mom can find (which is nice actually because I dont' have to look for it when I'm going somewhere), mascara, trouser socks, tape, one year I got one of those wrapping paper cutter dealies which ROCKS, body spray, gift certificates for the movie theater, lotto tickets, etc.
I give DH similar stuff but I also always get him a bag of mixed jelly belly jelly beans from the bulk bins at Target. They're his favorite. And I usually get him some underwear but I suggest foregoing that for your folks. *grin*
I love getting lip glosses, lotions, candy, pretty note-cards/stationery, my favorite type of pens, small jewelry, cute baking supplies, and lots and lots of chapstick.
I love PP's suggestions of a bottle of wine or fun scented tea lights too. They would be great in a stocking!
I usually get gum, candy, travel size perfumes and lotions, lip gloss. Sometimes, mom wraps $5 in a tiny box and puts it in there, so that's kind of fun.
I think it would be fun to put some scratch-off lotto tickets in there for your DH. Maybe some travel size cologne or body wash or shave cream?
For your mom, check this site out for socks... http://www.karenneuburger.com/Girls_Heathered_Chenille_Lounge_Socks/pd/np/313/p/1061.html
