Let Santa know where to place your family's presents by hanging Christmas stockings personalized with the names of everyone in your household, right down to the pets.

Xmas stockings aren’t only a place to stash gifts; they also serve as attractive holiday decorations. Funky, classic, and fashionable, personalized Christmas stockings are available from a number of online retailers in a variety of styles.

Following are some of the best designs lining the virtual shelves of Web stores this holiday season.

Monogrammed Needlepoint Stockings

Landsend.com’s classic needlepoint stockings (see photo below) come with free monogramming of one initial, two or three initials, or a word up to ten characters. Measuring 20 ½ inches long and 7-3/8 inches wide, the stocking has cotton velvet back and a wool front with hand detailed needlepoint work. Available in ten holiday-themed designs. Price: $20, $17.50 each for three or more. Shipping starts at $5.95.

Handmade Wool Knitted Christmas Stockings

Grandmother is not the only source for personalized hand-knitted stockings. Annieswoolens.com sells 11 classic Scandinavian and Ragg Wool knitted Christmas stockings with an embroidered name. This stocking is pictured below. The stockings measure 7 inches wide and 21 ½ inches long and are crafted from 100-percent wool. Price: $42. Shipping varies.

Fashionable Couture Personalized Xmas Stockings

Funky fabrics mix with free personalization in Ballarddesigns.com’s Couture Personalized Stockings (see photo below) to make a distinctive Christmas decoration. Topped with leopard fabric and pom-pom trim, the body of the elf-shoe-shaped stocking comes in six different red and green patterns. Price: $26.25, monogramming is free. Shipping is $8.95.

Faux Fur Personalized Christmas Stockings

Sumptuous, faux fur Christmas stockings from Horchow.com feature gold brocade trim and a variety of gold and red fabric embellishments. The stockings measure 8 ½ inches wide by 20 inches long and are available in seven designs, all of which can be personalized except the fur cuff stocking. Price: $75. Shipping is $15.

Personalized Pet Stockings

While the shape alone should alert Santa to these stockings’ owners, the Bone and Fish stockings at Personalcreations.com give family pets a place on the mantle with free personalization. The doggy bone-shaped stocking is green and red with colorful trim and accents. The fish-shaped kitty stocking features similar crafting and both measure 16 ½ inches long. The company offers free monogramming, up to eight characters. Price: $14.85. Shipping is $5.99.

Choose Christmas stockings that match your décor and gift-giving style. If your kids look forward to dumping tons of loot from their stocking each year, make sure they are big enough to hold at least a few toys. For stockings that will hold only a small gift and a few candy canes, a petite Christmas stocking will do.
