Embroidered Christmas Stockings for Sale - Personalized, Handmade, Needlepoint & More
There's something special about traditional embroidered Christmas stockings hanging over a fireplace. No child or adult will reject a Christmas stocking filled with yummy treats, toys, or other stocking stuffers, even if it's made of plastic netting. But an embroidered holiday stocking, often personalized and made of felt or heirloom quality velvet and in deep Christmas colors, adds a warm, old-fashioned feel to Christmas eve, whether it's hanging on the fireplace or a hook on the wall.
Crafts enthusiasts can hand-embroider their own stockings, and once upon a time, that, and browsing the department stores during the holidays, was the only way to have one. These days, beautiful Christmas socks made to be stuffed with small gifts and that look homemade with embroidery or needlepoint details can enter the home from vendors and crafters who sell their wares online.
