My gramma made them all. Mine was made years and years ago, and she sent the boys theirs this year. She's 70, and had forgotten what the originals looked like. She made the boys by memory, which is why they are different.

I had really pretty mudpie stockings but I wasn't able to find a fourth anywhere so I bought these at hobby lobby for $4. I will get personalized ones for next year.

The green ones are what we have up right now. I am changing them to the knit Santa ones MOTN Christmas Eve. My grandmother made all of them except the first (small and lumpy) one- I made that for H as a gift this year. I'm going to redo it to make it a little bigger next year.
Here's our mantle (don't mind a couple random stocking stuffers thrown up there) and close up of the stockings. I think I got them from personal creations
I just want to add that mine are from dollar tree from several years ago. Lol. William did pick out a cheap robot stocking at target this year. Whenever we move to a house with a fireplace, I'll actually invest in nice stockings.
Ours were like 2.50 a pip from hobby lobby. H made the name tags, if you couldn't tell.
When we were little, my grandma made my sister and me stockings with hand smocked details and real velvet. She was going to make them for all my cousins, but she got lazy, so only my sister and I have them. Sadly, it's still all my mom's house from when we moved.
