I love stocking stuffers.
There’s just something magical about those little surprises hidden inside a stocking, waiting to be discovered. They’re like the appetizers of gift-giving—small, thoughtful, and often the most fun to pick out. Whether it’s a tiny luxury, a practical gadget, or something to make them laugh, stocking stuffers are where creativity shines. Here are a few of my favorite ideas to make those stockings unforgettable this year!
Philips One Battery Toothbrush - $17
Not sure if this is a worldwide rule or not, but in my family, a new toothbrush in our stocking is a given. That and socks—it’s tradition. This one caught my eye because while I love my big electric toothbrush at home, it’s a hassle to pack for trips. This slim, charger-free version is perfect for travel, and the cute colors make it feel a little extra festive!
LANEIGE Lip Glowy Balm - $15
Another key stocking ingredient is something for your lips. This LANEIGE Lip Glowy Balm is a solid choice—hydrating, glossy, and it comes in fun flavors that feel like a treat. It’s perfect for tossing in a bag or coat pocket, and every time I use it, it feels like a mini spa moment for my lips. Berry is my favorite!
PocBuds Bluetooth Headphones Wireless - $25.99
These PocBuds wireless earbuds are a solid stocking stuffer for the price—don’t expect top-tier sound, but they get the job done. What I love most is the secure earhooks that keep them in place, so I never have to worry about them falling out like my other earbuds. With 80 hours of playtime and a wireless charging case, they’re surprisingly handy for the cost!
Ray Ban Meta Smart Glasses - Starting at $220
The Meta Smart Glasses are a fun, futuristic stocking stuffer for the tech-lover in your life. While they’re not cheap, they’re great for capturing hands-free photos and videos or staying connected without pulling out your phone. Plus, they look sleek enough to double as everyday sunglasses!
Date Night Ideas Generator Card Game - $19.99
I got this Date Night Ideas Generator for Jordan's stocking last year, and it was such a fun little surprise! With over 100,000 unique combinations, it’s perfect for spicing up dinner and movie nights or trying something totally new. Whether you’re newlyweds or have been together forever, this card game makes date night planning easy and keeps things exciting. Plus, it’s a great way to laugh, connect, and avoid the “What do you want to do?” debate!
iPhone Case with Built-In Stand - $23.99
I love this case because it eliminates the need for extra attachments to use as a stand or to get extra grip while holding my phone. The best part? It doesn’t block the MagSafe charger, so I can still charge wirelessly without any hassle. Plus, I’ve dropped my phone more times than I’d like to admit (oops), and the case has held up beautifully—still in excellent condition!
Lifelines Sensory Immersion - $13.99
The Lifelines Sensory Immersion Gift Set is perfect for a stocking stuffer, featuring a portable diffuser, grounding stone, and essential oils. Compact and beautifully packaged, it’s a great way to bring relaxation anywhere!
