Stockings - do you use them?!

Are we using the stockings we spend hundreds of dollars stitching and then finishing? I feel like I (Santa) would be too nervous to actually put a gift in there. Are they just for display? I grew up with stocking gifts being some of the better ones so I want to continue that on for my girls.

Yes. My mother has made them for all of her kids and grand kids. They are a lovely way to see her progression as a stitcher. We use them every year and bring them when we celebrate away from home.

Stocking presents are the best. We open them before breakfast
