Personalized Gifts Guide

Stocking Stuffers & White Elephant Gifts

What are good personalized stocking stuffers? Small personalized items such as name ornaments, funny socks, photo keychains, magnets, mugs and coasters make good stocking stuffers and white elephant gifts because they are useful, easy to wrap and easy to personalize.

Small gifts are where personalization shines: a name on an ornament or a face on a pair of socks gets a bigger reaction than its size suggests.

This page covers stocking stuffers and white elephant or gift-swap ideas, from sweet to silly.

            Buying tips: what should I look for?

            • For a gift exchange, funny beats fancy: photo-face socks and silly mugs are crowd favorites.
            • Ornaments make easy stocking stuffers for everyone in the family; add names and the year.
            • Check the group's rules before a white elephant swap and pick something anyone could use.
            • Coasters and mugs work for coworkers and neighbors when you don't know someone's taste.

            When to order: how early should I order?

            Order small gifts at the same time as your main gifts so everything arrives together; check each product page for its delivery date.

            USPS recommends sending by Dec 17 (Ground Advantage and First-Class Mail), Dec 18 (Priority Mail) or Dec 19 (Priority Mail Express) for delivery by Dec 25 in the lower 48 states. (USPS holiday shipping dates)
