The 5 Best Stocking Stuffers That Are Sure to Bring Smiles

Stockings are my favorite. The presents get opened and discarded to the side. Wrapping paper and boxes get cleared out. What keeps them talking in the hours to come are the stockings. The silly, funny, yummy contents get is excited, laughing and remind us what it’s like to be a kid again. Here are a few of my favorites: This cute poop plush is sure to make them laugh! I saw it for the first time…

"Mastering the July Santa Brisket: 10 Smoking Tips for Summer BBQs"

"July Santa Brisket Smoking Smoker" is a whimsical concept that combines the festive spirit of Christmas with the summertime tradition of barbecue. This unique idea reimagines Santa Claus as a pitmaster, trading his sleigh for a smoker and his toy workshop for a backyard barbecue setup.

This concept could inspire summer gatherings, blending the joy of Christmas with the relaxed atmosphere of a July cookout. It might feature decorations like tinsel-wrapped smokers, barbecue tool ornaments, or stockings filled with grilling accessories.

The phrase might be featured on holiday-themed apparel like t-shirts, aprons, or hats, perfect for the man who's as comfortable by the smoker as he is by the Christmas tree. It could also inspire gift ideas such as BBQ tool sets, specialty rubs, or cookbooks with a holiday twist.

This might be a super niche problem, but if anyone else has relatives that love to gift a TON of beauty and personal care items for Christmas (like lipstick gift sets, those little lotion and soap baskets, perfume sets etc.) that you never use and just sit there….staring at you and slowly expiring…..until you get guilty and toss it. There are places that will accept donations of (obviously new and unopened) cosmetic items!

Women’s shelters will often ask for makeup items, a local “buy nothing” group is also a great option, and I know when I worked at a Boys & Girls Club we kept a huge stash of donated personal care items (lotion, deodorant, sunscreen, chapstick, toothpaste etc.) on hand for kids or community members who needed them.

As always, people in need are not a guilt-free landfill alternative. These are just a few places I’ve donated the excess Burt’s Bees gift sets and cuticle oil samplers I’ve gotten over the years but please look into your local organizations and what they specifically say they need and want!!

hiiiii cece… for a stocking stuffer i would like to perhaps request building gingerbread houses with Oscar (:

thank you for requesting!🫶🏽

.

“This feels mathematical.” 

“It’s supposed to be fun.” 

“Then why do you have a ruler?” 

“Because I need to make sure the edges are straight.” 

“Right,” Oscar said, sounding the least bit convinced as he watched you fuss over the massive gingerbread slabs. “Because that is a very normal thing to do for a fun activity.” 

“You’re sounding awfully judgemental for someone who said they had never built a gingerbread house before,” you murmured, a crease forming between your brows that he had the strongest urge to smooth his thumb over. 

“I didn’t realise I needed a degree for it,” Oscar deadpanned, but his lips twitched upwards when your head snapped up to glare at him. “Ouch, tough crowd.” 

“I hope your gingerbread collapses,” you grumbled with a small huff, but let yourself be pulled towards his side as he wound an arm around your shoulders.

“You don’t mean that,” Oscar murmured, his lips brushing against your temple before he pressed a placating kiss to the side of your head. “You would be upset if my gingerbread family had no home.” 

“It would be their fault for leaving their house in the hands of a builder who mocks a ruler,” you retorted, your lips twitching when Oscar let out a laugh. 

“No, you would help me,” he said confidently. 

And he wasn’t wrong. You would help him. To be completely honest, you went into this with the expectation that you would have to help salvage whatever mess he made whilst he nibbled on the sweets you had off to the side to decorate the houses. 

“Not anymore,” you lied, rolling your eyes when he placed another—and longer—kiss on your cheek this time. “Okay, okay, Piastri, you’re wearing me down.” 

Oscar grinned. “I’ll give you half my jelly tots for your help.” 

“Just some jelly tots?” You teased, eyebrows raised as Oscar reached for one of the tubes of icing. 

“You got some other demands, baby?” Oscar asked, his eyes dropping to your lips for a short moment.

“I think…” You paused, leaning a little closer. Just enough to hear Oscar’s breath hitch a little. “You can do better than that.” 

His eyes widened as you pulled away suddenly, taking the icing with you. “Woah—hey!” 

“Thought you were meant to be fast,” you taunted, giggling when he lightly poked at your side. “You snooze, you lose, baby.” 

“I see how it is,” Oscar mused, reaching for your ruler before you could grab it back. “You’re on, baby, you’re on.” 

You snorted. “Hm, sexy and competitive. Just how I like my gingerbread building contests.”

“Laugh all you want but I am taking my jolly tots back.” 

“Hey, we had a deal!” 

“You snooze, you lose, baby!”

"Melon Christmas In July" is a quirky concept that blends the festive spirit of Christmas with the refreshing essence of summer melons. This unique celebration flips traditional holiday notions on their head, creating a fun, tropical twist on yuletide cheer.

Jason: You're in my way, lady. I've got a score to settle!

Y/n: Oh, really? *smirks beneath her mask, a glint of mischief in her eyes* And here I thought I was the one who usually says that.

Jason: *narrows his eyes, gripping the handle of his bat tightly* Who the hell are you supposed to be? The Christmas-themed Robin?

Y/n: Very close, *laughs, a low, sultry sound that sends shivers down his spine* I'm more like the naughty elf.

Jason: Well, elf or not, you're gonna regret crossing paths with the Red Hood.

Y/n: Oh really? *parries his swing with a metallic staff that extends from her sleeve, the clang resonating through the night air* I've got a little something that'll warm you up on this cold Christmas Eve. *blowed a kiss to him*

Jason: Cheesy lines won't save you.

Y/n: Who says I need saving? *swings her staff again, a whirl of motion that he barely dodges* Besides, I'm more about giving than receiving.

Jason: Oh, I bet you are, *quips, dodging another blow* But I'm not in the mood for gifts right now.

Y/n: Aw, you're no fun. *jumps back, her boots hitting the ground with a thud* But I can make an exception for you, Jason.

Jason: Why's that? *growing more agitated by the second, his movements more precise and less playful*

Y/n: Because it's the season of giving, and I've got a special stocking stuffer just for you.

Jason: You're insane.

Y/n: Maybe. But I'm also pretty good at fighting dirty. *winks, a hint of playfulness in her voice*

Jason: We'll see about that.

*The fight intensifies, their movements a blur of red, black, and crimson. Punches and kicks fly, each one blocked or dodged with a grace that belies the deadly intent behind them. Y/n's staff whips through the air, leaving a trail of glittering mist in its wake*

Y/n: *panting slightly* You know, I've always wondered how you taste.

Jason: *his eyes widen* What?

Y/n: Like naughty or nice?

Jason: I'm not a cookie, elf girl!

Y/n: Oh, I know, *says with a smirk* But you might just be the sweetest thing I've ever tasted.

Jason: You're going down.

*The battle reaches a crescendo, and with a flourish, Y/n disarms him, leaving him momentarily stunned*

Y/n: Merry Christmas, Jason *whispers, her voice a seductive purr*

Jason: *his cheeks flushing beneath his mask* Wha-what?

Y/n: Merry Christmas *repeats, leaning in closer, her breath warm against his skin* See you next year, if you're nice.

*With that, she close the distance between them and presses her lips to his, a kiss that is both surprising and electric. His eyes widen in shock, but he doesn't pull away. Instead, he kisses her back, his arms wrapping around her waist, pulling her closer. The fight forgotten, they stand there in the alley, lost in the moment*

Jason: Who are you? *murmurs against her lips*

Y/n: Just your friendly neighbourhood elf. *giggles before pulling away and vanishing into the night, leaving him with his thoughts and a newfound Christmas spirit*

Jason: *blushing* Merry Christmas to you too...
