Stockings for late teens
I don’t want to stop the stocking thing as DS loves it but…
What on Earth can I fill it with?! Consumables only really ideally as he doesn’t need (snd I don’t want) ‘stuff’ Socks are usually a good and bulky option but I’ve only recently replaced all of those 🤦🏼 I have got him a Fabi Dabi Doll actually which is ‘stuff’ but the rest needs to be non clutter! Help! 😆 Maybe each gift can be like pass the parcel! Edited at 11:34 AM. |

I still do one for ds and he is 21 and doesn’t live at home anymore 😆
Little things I got him were an espresso cup and saucer from DLP, green tea and fruit tea, decent toiletries (rather than the normal lynx and stuff) Vegan chocolate/ sweets and the obligatory Christmas socks. Might actually get him a hot water bottle as his apartment in Manchester only has a couple of smallish radiators. Also saw a cool mobile phone projector on firebox but as he has a massive telly I think it’ll be redundant! |

I do always try and put things in that I’d buy anyway but it’s nice to have something a bit different. He does love a bath bomb so I’ve got one of those. Maybe I’ll find some nice
bubble Bath (not the usual radox!) A gift card is a good shout too. He’s often in Nando’s so I’ll grab that when I’m next in Sainsbury’s. Edited at 01:43 PM. |

My girls are 10&12 and I’ve found stockings harder this year as they have ‘stuff’ and don’t need or have space for any more of it. I ended up getting them hair products (better than we normally buy) and nail polish (we share a huge collection of different colours) and some lip balm. It’s a small stocking so I don’t think anything else would fit now and that lot was £40ish so I’m done with the stockings!
