Please note we received samples of some of these items in order to be able to write these reviews.  My opinions are my own and were not influenced in any way.  

Skip The Stocking

Okay I don’t really mean to SKIP the whole stocking…but I want you to rethink what you use as a stocking Why not use something adorable and unique like Sea Bag’s Snowman Bucket Bag?  These bucket bags are not only amazing organizing tools, they make perfect “stockings”.  The wide opening allows you to see what’s inside and to access items easily.  The sail material means it’s durable and can be used for years and years to come.  I love gifting these as hostess presents and putting consumables like spices, candy, or hand soap inside.  These also make a perfect centerpiece!  Think outside the stocking this holiday and add some amazing to your holiday celebrations and decor.  And if you want more know more about Sea Bags, check out their story here. 

Chapstick

Chapsticks are a classic stocking stuffer.  They are not only fun and now holiday themed, they are useful and consumable! I’m never without a tube of Chap-Stick. I seriously have one in every pocket, on my desk, in my bag, and everywhere in between.  I am thrilled to share with you that they have three seasonal flavors this year; Pumpkin Pie, Sugar Cookie, and Candy Cane.   They are perfect to bring a little celebration to every day and keep your lips soft and smooth.  Yes, these are amazing little ways to treat yourself, but they also make great stocking stuffers, gifts for teachers, friends and kids.  

Dryer Balls

Well this may seem like an odd stocking stuffer.  However, they are life changing, fun, and unique.  I promise, once you’ve used dryer balls, you’ll never look back.  Here’s how they work.  Instead of dryer sheets, place loohoo balls in the dryer with your wet clothing.  They work to fluff your clothing while it dries, making every soft and snuggly.  These are chemical free and reusable.  You won’t have to rebuy dryer sheets ever again!  They also reduce drying time so you’ll save time AND energy costs!  That’s a win all around.  Oh and they come in adorable packaging and colors!

Essential Oils

For The Pups

If you’ve read my blog before you know I LOVE my dogs.  I believe in helping them celebrate the holiday just as much as all of my human family.  Both of my dogs have stockings and they get all kinds of fun treats in them.  Every year, I turn to PrideBites to help me make their holiday special.   The toy is made from durable foam that doesn’t lose its shape.  The outside is made of fleece that is tear proof.  (Tug proof up to 55 pounds).  I love that this toy can go inside or outside.  I no longer have to watch the dog like a hawk to ensure she doesn’t take her toy outside.  This toy even floats!  I love that its a great option to keep in the car for the spur of the moment game of fetch.  So after it gets dirty, you can throw it in the washing machine!  Its durable, lightweight and of course, it squeaks!  These are great toys for dogs of any size. They are different than anything you’ve ever seen or tried before. You, and your dog will love them.  View their whole line of toys here.
