But before we get to Christmas, I have a confession. I love cupcakes, frozen yogurt, cookies, candy...any kind of sweets. Like really love them. Last weekend I decided to give up sweets until Thanksgiving. That would make a total 10 days. Yes, that may not be a lot for most people but for me it is. I have been strong and resisted sweets at every turn and the result, I am cranky. I am counting down the moments until Thanksgiving. Literally. Now onto a happier topic.
Ever since I was a little kid Christmas has been my favorite holiday. Not just because gifts but because the decorating, family togetherness, dinner parties, shopping, Christmas music, hot apple cider, baking and more! See. Just the thought of Christmas already made you smile.
I contemplated not writing this post because some people really get frustrated that people are already thinking about Christmas but my blog = my post ideas. Love how that works plus Christmas shopping will kick into full swing by the end of this week.
Today I thought I would cover just a few things that would make great stocking stuffers. Sometimes it is hard to think of new ideas for filling stockings. Here are a few of my favorites:
1. Travel Perfume. When I saw this gift I thought it was brilliant! This is perfect for any girl or woman. You just fill up the tube with your perfume and it can go wherever you go. Told you...brilliant! For more on this product, click here.

2. Starbucks iTunes Cards or Ornaments. When I stopped at Starbucks a few days ago I found the cutest gift ideas right on there counter. One gift I loved were the Pick of the Week cards. Each card has a free iTunes download of music or shows. I took a few and scored a free Michael Buble Christmas song.
Another gift that caught my eye and you only set you back $5 is this cute ornament.

3. Wine stoppers. The best part about this gift is you can find the neatest ideas to help keep your wine fresh. I was looking through a lot of different toppers and couldn't believe what people have created to top your wine bottle with. You can spend $30 or $40 on a nice metal or wood stoppers or $8 on this fun cupcake stopper. For more on the wine stoppers below, click here.

4. Purse hook. I can't tell you how many times I go to a restaurant and do not want to set my purse on the floor. I mean think about it. What all has been on that floor? This gift is so creative and I like how you can give it that added personal touch with initials or name. It is small and fits perfectly in your bag. For more on this gift idea, click here.

5. Favorite Candy. Who doesn't love a handful of their favorite sweets? I rest my case. And just to flare up your sweet tooth...
6. Reasons I love you stones. This gift is just sweet and I love the thought of receiving a gift like this. The stones say "I love you" on one side and then a fun reason why like "because you get my jokes." That stone fits my husband. I think he laughs more at how ridiculous my jokes are than the actual comedy in them.

I hope that these ideas help when it comes to stocking your loved ones stockings full. If you want to send me any of these gifts, I can send you my address. (Lots of smiles)
Do you have any other fun gift ideas? I would love to hear what your stocking stuffing plans are for Christmas.
I feel this way too! Ready for Christmas early this year. :) I feel like a lot of people have been saying this. It must be in the air or something...
