15 Super Cute DIY Stocking Stuffers!
Here are some tips to keep in mind when picking and making your stocking stuffers.
- Pick something functional. I like to give gifts that serve a purpose! We all have too much stuff sitting around our houses so make sure to make a gift that has a job.
- Every person can have the same stocking stuffer. Don’t break your bank or spend tons of time making everyone a different stocking stuffer. Pick something that everyone could use and love!
- Use items you have on hand. Don’t go crazy buying new craft supplies if you have something that will work to make these gifts. Think outside the box and try to use what you have to create something special.

I am in process of hand sewing binding on a quilt for one of my kids here and there and all of these look much more fun, lol. I hate the binding process ! 🙂
Going to check out that boot cuff from old sweater link! 🙂 Thanks for collecting these.
THAT is my favorite one (but then I love boots)!
Love all these ideas. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend! Maria
So many cute ideas:) Enjoy your day dear Manuela and the weekend ahead! HUGS!
My two favorites are the boot cuffs and the dip mix ornaments. I bought some extra fillable ornaments for a project here that did not come off as I was expecting. I really want to copycat that for gifts to give away. That’s REALLY clever!!
I made the dip mix ornaments for my Cookie Swap. The guests LOVED them!
Great ideas, I am so glad you shared this!
Stocking stuffers are always a challenge for me, but I think a couple of these items will find their way into my shopping cart this year! Thank you Manuela!
Oh me too. Stocking stuffers are always hard for me – especially for my husband. But he’s hard to shop for anyway!
Great ideas! Pinned and tweeted. Lou Lou Girls
