Since Christmas is just around the corner, you can also create unique gift ideas for your loved ones such as personalized Christmas stockings. Personalized Christmas stockings have its own meaning and there also is story related to it and the reason why it became so popular. This tradition began with Saint Nicholas, so let us have a look at how the story went.
It is believed that there were three sisters who were really poor. They were devastated just because they were unable to pay for their wedding. One day, they left their clothes which were wet hanging over the fireplace so they could dry while they slept for sometime. This was the time when Saint Nicholas felt pity on them just because they couldn’t pay for their dowry. He decided to put few cents in their stockings which were hanging over the fireplace. When the girls woke up in the morning, they got happy to find few coins which were just enough to pay for their wedding.
Since then the tradition of hanging stockings began. Today, it is so popular that even when children wake up on the day of Christmas, the first thing they do is to walk up to the fireplace to see what is there in the stocking for them. So, this year, if you are looking forward to giving your kids a surprise, you can do that with personalized Christmas stockings.
These wonderful stockings are not just unique, but they will also be loved by your kids. Moreover, instead of just having initials, you can have their full names sewn on the stockings. They will truly love this surprise and keep their stockings with them all the time. They will even be able to show your unique love to their children in years to come.
