holly2hottie Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I would like to get new stockings for my family. I would like them embroidered with their names and really nice looking. I have looked all over and online and so many look cheesy. Anyone know of any place I can look? Thanks.
Gumball Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I don't know of anyplace that sells them embroidered but try calling a few places that do machine embroidery on jackets & shirts and see if maybe they could do it on stockings you brought in to them.
Gator Pam Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 My son has a nice furry red and white one with a white thread embroidery of Santa on the red stocking part and his name embroidered in white thread on the white top part. It looks really nice, especially since it's 12 years old. I found it in a special holiday kiosk at the Sawgrass Mills Mall all those years ago. Keep your eyes open, you may see one you like anywhere.
Guest all2tired Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I have no idea where you can get one. Sorry
brynnfromtheblock Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I looked all over last year and they are so expensive and since there are 5 of use I was hesistant to buy one. I wanted traditional looking ones, not character ones. Right before Christmas at things remembered they went on Clearance for 14.99 embroidered, and they had a Buyone Getone Sale, so 2 were only like 23 bucks..... they're very traditional though, don't know if you were looking for something more fun. Actually when I just checked on line they're 14.99 now with BOGO!!! They have red and green and snowflake
ryka Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 When I was a baby my mom had mine knitted by a lady she knew with my name and date of birth and I still use that stocking. I would love to get my kids ones like that but I don't know anyone that can knit. My kids do have stocking with their names sewn on them. We got them from the mall. They have this kiosk set up there every christmas that sells stockings and ornaments that are personalized. You can check to see if your mall does too. If not you might want to check ebay. They might just have what you are looking for.
all4linkae Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I would like to get something like that too....hmmm..maybe I'll have to check out things remembered!!
Momto32003 Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 My Mom has made all of ours. They sell them at Hobby Lobby and Michaels and such.

I have looked all over and online and so many look cheesy. Anyone know of any place I can look? Thanks.We need to buy new ones too. We got our last ones handmade at a mall...and when my sis and I were little they were also handmade by a friend of my dad's. Maybe this thread will help me too.
elena_398 Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I bought beautiful ones at CVS one year when they had the christmas clearance. Big and high quality.Its been 3 yrs now and they are still like new
holly2hottie Posted November 5, 2005 Author Posted November 5, 2005 My grandmother made mine but it is so time consuming and it is getting harder for her now. I would love to make some but with my 2 boys I don't even have time to think...lol I will just keep looking. Thanks for all the ideas!
Booterbunz Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I got my stockings for dh, dd, and me at Walmart. I got the nice plush ones when they hit clearance before dd was born. Then I used glue and some glitter and put names on the stockings. It was something fun for me to do and it may not look THE BEST, but it's homey! :)
amystuff Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 I saw needlepoint stockings on the JC Penney site last night. They are usually 29.99, on sale for 11.99 and personalized free. My picture is not that great, but they look cute.For some reason I can't get it to link to the page. Just go to www.jcpenney.comLook under Home Furnishings and then on the left go to Holiday at Home
Gporter34 Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 I started making stockings and tree skirts a long time ago. They got way too high in the stores. As a matter of fact, I just sold a set the other day, mantle cover, tree skirt, four stockings, and a table runner. I haven't tried to put names on them but I may try it this year.

mattandsimone Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 Hey there. I bought monogrammed velvet stockings last year for my family at the pottery barn website. There is free shipping and your cost before tax would be $19 with monogramming. They are very well made and they should last several years. The medium size listed is actually pretty large. You can fit socks, bags of candy and some other extras in there very easily. I hope this helps. *also, they mispelled my husbands name the first time around. We called to get it corrected, fully intending on sending the other back, but they sent a brand new one perfectly made. We have an extra stocking that we can monogram on the other side. . .nice for chldren that don't know the difference. All in all, great customer service. :)
stacimarie Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 we have a craft type store here that does hats and stuff for small companies, they opened up to the public. try something like that.
shopping mom Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 Disney had some on their site and I think it was an extra 30% off. Check the thread forum for online deals. Lillian Vernon would also be a good place to check online.
