Your options for finding a cute snowman stocking with personalization are endless. From the material used to the kind of snowman depicted, you can find something to fit just about anyone’s personality. Design options for your snowman stocking include:

• Whimsical
• Vintage
• Needlepoint
• Embroidered
• Appliqued

The stocking you choose can either fit your personality or fit with your home’s décor. Just because red and green are Christmas colors does not mean you cannot find stockings in white, gold, silver, blue, purple, or pink. Personalized snowman stockings for babies may come in pastel pink or blue.

Shopping for Personalized Christmas Snowman Stockings

Buy your own stocking at Christmas specialty stores, sewing/craft stores, or in the holiday section of large retailers. Craft fairs held during the holidays may also offer the option of placing an order for personalized Christmas snowman stockings that are hand-sewn while you wait or that you can pick up at a later date.

Internet and catalog retailers offer a large selection of personalized snowman stockings, too. When shopping, look for designs on sale if you need cheap Christmas decorations, or with the personalization for free. If you have other holiday shopping to do, see if the website has what you need, and you may qualify for free shipping if your order reaches a certain dollar amount. Just because your snowman stockings are personalized does not mean you have to spend a fortune.

Make Your Own Stocking

Craft enthusiasts and families looking for a fun holiday activity might like to try their hand at making their own simple snowman stockings with personalization. Follow these easy instructions to create your personalized Christmas stocking.

Supplies:

• Plain stocking, any color but white
• Felt in orange, black, white
• Fabric glue
• Letter stencils
• Fabric pen
• Round cookie cutters in three different sizes
• Optional: other felt colors, sparkles, glitter, pins, or small ornaments

Instructions:

1. Using your felt pen, trace around the cookie cutters onto the white felt.
2. Cut out the circles and place (with pen-side down to hide any markings) in the shape of a snowman on the stocking.
3. Trace letters to spell your name in black felt, flipping letters around so that markings are on the bottom side of letters.
4. Cut out letters and line at the top of the stocking.
5. Cut a top hat and small round circles to form buttons, eyes, and mouth.
6. Place on stocking.
7. Cut a carrot nose out of the orange felt and place on stocking.
8. Tweak the arrangement of everything so it is centered and the letters are lined up.
9. Use the fabric glue to attach everything and let dry for the recommended amount of time on the bottle before hanging.

Make it your own design by altering the name placement, adding glitter, or cutting out a Christmas tree from green felt. This stocking is so simple to make, it's a fun project to do with children. Remember to supervise their use of scissors and glue.
