Digging through a Christmas stocking stuffed with holiday surprises is the best part of Christmas morning! Here are two lists of creative Christmas stocking stuffer ideas: one for him, and one for her.

The Christmas stocking is almost as important as the “real” Christmas gifts under the tree. The little tidings of comfort and joy in the Christmas stocking brings back childhood memories and surprises.

Plus, it’s just fun to sort through your stocking. Christmas oranges and walnuts taste better when they come from a Christmas stocking, don’t they? We always threw in a few of those, but the real stocking stuffers are wrapped and sealed with a kiss.

A few thoughtful, romantic Christmas stocking stuffers for couples can give your relationship a wonderful boost of love and fun over the holidays!
