I actually hate the font ( there was a mix up ) so eventually these will get replaced but I do love the simplicity of them. </p> <p>Ps the red ones on either end are for our cat and dog and are getting names on there as soon as I remember to drop them off. Darn baby brain!</p> <p>Also please ignore my ugly feet which REALLY need some love ha ha! </p> <p>[attach=3126/14/nfg61o.450x600.image.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955948 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 10:15:33 +0000 Applesandbananas 1955948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: ours are mismatched. They're all cross stitched (my mom did them) but they have different patterns. DH has a nutcracker that I'm in love with, DS has a sweet Santa scene, and mine, that I've had since birth, is a girl version of DS's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955926 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 09:51:09 +0000 cheert16 1955926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have these: <a href="http://www.kohls.com/product/prd-1898442/st-nicholas-square-21-in-initial-stocking.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.kohls.com/product/prd-1898442/st-nicholas-square-21-in-initial-stocking.jsp</a></p> <p>Just saw they don't have the initial for our new little girl (EDD 12/13) so we may have to get new ones!! Hope I can find the first letter of her name in the store! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955833 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 08:10:34 +0000 looch 1955833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We all have PBK ones, they're the ones that are similar to the ones the OP posted, but blue background instead of red. I have the doll, my husband has the train and my son has santa. First names on all. They're not unpacked yet or I would post a pic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955827 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 08:05:49 +0000 regberadaisy 1955827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: love your knit ones! The baby deer one is so adorable. </p> <p>@shopaholic: haha it does look like a turtle! :) I got them on merry stockings dot Com last year for $16.99. They were on a deal site but I missed it and they were nice enough to honor the deal! If you like neutral simple stockings they have other styles as well including knit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955737 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 01:02:56 +0000 mrskc 1955737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Yeah you're right. I didn't think about DH's being the only green one. I think they'll all look nice together. Thanks. </p> <p>@shopaholic: Yeah, I think the white trim will coordinate them. I like the idea of all white, knit ones you and DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955727 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 00:38:11 +0000 shopaholic 1955727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PurplePeony: So talented!</p> <p>@regberadaisy: That is really nice and simple! It took me awhile to figure out your LO's wasn't a turtle. lol</p> <p>@mrskc: Those are lovely, but I really like neutral colors. I actually think A's and the Woodland one would kind of coordinate because of the white trim? Maybe I'll get the knit style all-white or all-ivory ones for DH and myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955715 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 00:21:19 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1955715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: I actually think the woodland one would go well with what you have bc you and DH have different color knit stockings! The woodland would just be a different color from A's, but the trim and design of it is similar so it would still look great together IMO! I actually think it'd look better than another red velvet stocking for L. If you did, it'd be three red stockings vs DH's solo green. </p> <p>It does make me glad that I bought J's along with the rest of the family's though cuz I was actually in my third tri with him when I got his. I'm surprised pbk doesn't have the same ones every year. I thought they would! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955709 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 00:13:30 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1955709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I let LO pick the stockings for her and her sister tbis year, so all of ours are totally mismatched. :) we got them at hobby lobby....they have a huge selection and all of their xmas stuff is 50% off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955704 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 00:05:41 +0000 mrskc 1955704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PurplePeony: Those are gorgeous!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955701 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 00:03:23 +0000 mrskc 1955701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here are our stockings last year. I can't decide which kind from PB to get DD. </p> <p>@Mrs. High Heels: I'm really annoyed PB doesn't have the same red velvet stockings anymore. I wanted to get one for DD to match DS's stocking. :( I'm thinking of getting her a woodland one but all our stockings are going to be mismatched now! Maybe I'll get DH, DS and I new stockings if they go on clearance after xmas. </p> [attach=684/14/nffcpp.600x400.2013_12_25-2.jpg] [attach=684/14/nffcpr.600x529.img25o.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955699 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 23:58:36 +0000 regberadaisy 1955699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PurplePeony: wow - great job! </p> <p>I like simple stockings that will grow with our children. I opted for simple ivory quilted stocking. I bought them last year with an extra one for DD 2 I will take to be embroidered locally.<br /> I don't plan to ever change them out!</p> <p>[attach=1325/14/nffchp.591x600.2014-11-21-23.54.26.png] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955656 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 22:55:18 +0000 Greentea 1955656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PurplePeony: those are awesome!

Everyone in my whole family (mom's side) has them. I was SO excited when Liam got his in the mail before his first Christmas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955581 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:58:45 +0000 Smurfette 1955581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: Yep! All three are the same, just hers is ivory. I got them all last year. Eventually we will get PB ones. I just want to wait till we have another or decide we arent. I will post a pic in the next couple days. Hopefully our new French doors are finished tomorrow so I can decorate Sunday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955531 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:28:57 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1955531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: yea i'm like that too - i don't mind mismatch as long as there's cohesion somewhere. i think the different trims would also throw me off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955529 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:28:04 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1955529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PurplePeony: those are soooo beautiful!! wish i could knit like that... err.. or knit at all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955525 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:26:55 +0000 PurplePeony 1955525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made ours -- here is a photo of the reverse sides because I don't want our names to show (I also posted this last year): </p> [attach=3813/14/nff5gw.600x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955524 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:26:25 +0000 shopaholic 1955524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: This is exactly what I was looking for in terms of ideas! I love how they all have the matching fuzzy white trim. What's throwing me off right now is the gingham trim on K's. Maybe I'll need to get her another on eventually.</p> <p>@lawbee11: I'd love to see when you put them up!</p> <p>@Smurfette: Is R's knit also? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955522 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:25:30 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1955522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erind425: hahaa... oh yes i blame everything on mommy brain! someone told me their mom used to stuff oranges at the bottom of their stockings to fill it up! maybe you can try stuff like that! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955518 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:22:36 +0000 jape14 1955518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: I stupidly didn't even look at the dimensions before I ordered them! We previously had the velvet ones so I just assumed they were the same size. I totally blame the fact that I ordered them while breastfeeding in the MOTN! And now our LO will make out like a bandit haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955496 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:10:42 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1955496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kimberlybee: thank you! I wanted each one to represent us, so dancer for Noelle, Santa for daddy, mama owl (with a baby owl) for me, and reindeer for Jaren. </p> <p>@erind425: that was one of my main reasons for not getting those, but I love the way they look! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955491 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:08:07 +0000 jape14 1955491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got the fair isle ones from PBK, but be warned -- they are humongous; a lot larger than the PB velvet ones or similar! It is going to be a serious effort to fill those things every year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/family-stockings-pics-please#post-1955490 Fri, 21 Nov 2014 21:07:50 +0000 Kimberlybee 1955490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Your display is lovely!
