How it all began…

Holly jolly stockings was founded by two very busy mums with six little darlings, who only ever wanted the very, very best treats in their Christmas-time stockings that they carefully hung by the fire-side or placed at the foot of their beds each Christmas Eve.

Fazed by such a demanding feat year in, year out, the mums set themselves the seemingly impossible task of sourcing a truly delightful, ready-filled Christmas stocking, from an armchair!

Our story continues with those very same mums – who both happened to work part time and experienced a complete love/hate relationship with the festive season – discovering a whole collection of both magical and whimsical, traditional, and as often as possible hand-made, stocking fillers that would be loved by both young and old.

Having joyfully completed such a daunting task, they decided to take the advice they so often wisely pressed upon their children, that is, “to share”. This wonderful discovery could therefore be shared with every other super busy/ super harassed/ working/ truly exhausted/ quite often Christmas-dreading mum, in the world.

The story ends with six little darlings living happily ever after, with their Christmas wishes fulfilled.
In a nutshell, (and that’s the kind of nutshell you only see at Christmas), you too can experience the pure magic of Christmas morning, with hardly any  effort at all.

So go on, treat the little ones and yourself by placing an order and experiencing some of the true magic of Christmas.
