Is it just me or have stocking stuffers morphed over the years? No longer are they gifts that actually fit in the stocking…have you found yourself wrapping huge gifts in boxes and labelling them “stocking stuffers” and placing them under the tree? I’ve done it. But I don’t really get it. A stocking stuffer should..um..be able to be stuffed in the stocking…right??? I might also be a bit old school because I’m a believer that they should be more reasonably priced treats…it’s hard to stick under $10 but it’s fun to get creative without spending a fortune. This year, we’ve searched to find gifts that “she” will love that might be small in size and budget but will let you fill her stocking with thoughtfully chosen gifts…much to her delight. Oh and don’t forget, a scratcher and a mandarin orange need to find their way in there too…
