“The stockings were hung by the fire with care, in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.” If, like us, ol’ St. Nick delivers your stockings I’ve got the perfect gift guide for you. Read on to discover my top stocking filler choices for him and for her this year.

For him and for her

Because… Covid

Hand sanitiser and hand cream

Tongue in cheek these may be, but they are almost certainly useful - especially in the current climate. I’d imagine I'm not the only one who feels like their skin is being seared off by the copious amounts of alcohol we are lathering on our hands at the moment. Whilst a bottle of hand sanitiser makes a great stocking filler; make sure to also include a bottle of hand cream to boot.

Sweet tooth treats

Luxury favourites

A few luxury faves from Souschef* will never not be appreciated. There are so many choices available, from spices for cooking to utensils and more. Whatever you like, you're sure to find it, but my choice will always be chocolate, truffles and fancy luxury treats for sure!

Their favourite chocs

Any guesses what John's favourite chocolate is? No? No way you can look at these pictures of caramel and white chocolate goodies and not guess! Sweet treats go a long way to being a perfect (yet slightly unhealthy) gift to bulk out the stocking. You can buy big bags of chocolate, sweets, licorice and more for £1 (or less!) and they are sure to be appreciated and very quickly fill any gaps in the stocking.

Healthy bites

Just to balance things out, stocking filler treats don't have to be unhealthy bags of sweet chocolate. PRO YOUth® protein energy bars* come in three amazing flavours, taste lush and are healthier options too! Buy a few or a large box and have the perfect stocking fillers at the ready (just try not to eat them first!)

Christmas tipple

Mini gins and liqueurs

I love me a mini gin. Add a special flavour and Christmas shaped bottle and I'm all over it. With little Christmas sets available at il Gusto* the only thing you need to worry about is which lovely flavour combo to choose, and how to make sure Santa doesn’t drink them before they make it to being stocking fillers.

Eco-friendly & practical

As you know, we love a bit of eco-friendly change in this household. One thing we never seemed to get on with though, was paper straws! Now, we don't have to worry. Thanks to VASO* we now have a lovely family set of glass straws and they are fabulous! These straws come in three different sizes and the opportunity to buy as a set; as well as having an option to include a cleaning brush. These make a great stocking filler gifts and are perfect for anyone looking for a simple eco-friendly swap at home.

Bathroom basics

Toothbrushes

When it comes to stocking fillers, toothbrushes are a staple; but that doesn’t mean we have to constantly only have the land-filling plastic ones. Stocking filler gifts like bamboo brushes from Brushbox* are the perfect choice. Each box comes with a year's supply to, so this really is a gift that keeps on giving. It doesn’t stop there though.
  • The packaging is recyclable and compostable.

  • The brushes are biodegradable bamboo.

  • For every brush bought, they plant a new tree.

  • They also donate a brush to a UK child in need for each one sold.

What could be better than an eco-friendly and sustainable gift?

Toothpaste and mouthwash

You've got the brush, time to make sure the other essentials are included. I prefer Colgate myself, but John is a firm Sensodyne Pronamel fan. An expensive choice for sure, so I keep an eye out for when it's on offer (like 50% off in Sainsbury's recently!) Mouthwash can kill up to 99% of bacteria, so it's definitely a perfect addition to this little stocking filler gift set.

Wash stuff

Obvious? Maybe. Cliché? Probably. Essential? Definitely. The Great British shower and body wash market is worth just under £400 million per year. I mean, we all have to wash, right? Stock up on a few essentials such as shampoo, conditioner, body wash and other items your partner uses as you'll have usefull stocking fillers ready to go.

Driving essentials

Air fresheners

If you're driving home for Christmas, the last thing you want is to have a smelly car. From pet odours to stains made by children; an air freshener never goes amiss in anyone's car. We all know Lynx Africa became a bit of a go-to cliché gift a few years back, but did you know they do Lynx car air fresheners* now? They can be bought at car retailers and even on Amazon † if you don't fancy shopping in store at the moment.
Never heard of Carfume*? Well, now you have! These luxury car air fresheners are perfect for every driver, whatever the mood. You can buy them in a number of different scents - including some personal faves - colours and even order them as a gift set. Perfect for every driver's stocking this year.

Future fun

Box of favours*

The amazing Box of Favours* is a fabulous gift for him or her, and a great choice for stocking fillers this year. In a society ever more conscious of our carbon footprint and for those - like us - who are trying to take steps to be more eco-friendly, this is a gift which keeps on giving. For every Box Of Favours sold, a donation of $1 is made to the charity, ‘One Tree Planted’. For every dollar they receive, they plant a tree. That means your Box of Favours just planted a tree! The best part is they are easy to order and buy on Amazon †, with Prime delivery too!

For her

To look nice at home

Lashes

Party season approaches… except this year, party season won't be the same. Sadly, the rule of 6 and other laws affect our ability to do things we normally would at this time of year. Looking good at home for Zoom parties was never part of the plan, but it's fast become our only choice! Why not pick up some Ardell Naked Lashes* as a stocking filler to make every lady look and feel fabulous; even if they're sitting in pyjama bottoms and slippers on online video calls.

For him

Footie night faves

Bottle opener

I don't think I've ever seen John so stoked as when sport finally started back again; after being stopped thanks to Covid-19. Beer and football seem to be good friends, wouldn't you agree? If you're after a stocking filler for any sport lover's stocking, the Cellardine Zap Cap Bottle Opener* is an awesome choice. Super simple to use, this stainless steel accessory is the perfect gadget for 2020 stockings.

So, there you go! 2020 has been a weird one for all of us but Christmas is a time of joy and celebration and even Covid-19 can't take that away from us. I hope you now have some top ideas for your partner's stocking this year!

 

Wishing you a very Happy Christmas from my family and me this year!
