Nothing brings warmth to your holiday decor quite like knitted stockings. These cozy pieces add a layer of texture and charm that complements any style, from traditional to modern farmhouse. Whether you’re dreaming of a classic white stocking by the fireplace or looking for one with a pop of festive color, knitted stockings bring that snug, handmade vibe we all crave during the holidays. Think about it – these aren’t just stockings; they’re a piece of decor that fill a space perfect for Winter.

Bringing cozy season into your home
This season, there’s a knitted stocking for every style, making it easier than ever to find one that feels perfect for your home. Soft neutrals, like creams and taupes, are everywhere, effortlessly fitting into any decor. For a touch of festive fun, textured knits with pom-poms, chunky weaves, or even subtle metallic threads add a bit of sparkle without overdoing it. And let’s talk color! If you love a bold look, deep reds, forest greens, and winter blues are trending. They create a cozy, classic holiday feel.

Where to Hang Christmas Stockings If You Don’t Have a Mantle
No mantle? No problem! There are still plenty of creative and cozy places to hang your Christmas stockings. Here are a few festive ideas that keep the holiday spirit alive, mantle or not:
Fireplace Screen or Wall-Mounted Heater Cover
If you have a decorative fireplace screen or a wall heater cover, use that as a hanging space, just make sure it’s safe and cool to the touch!
Use a Blanket Ladder
Leaning a wooden blanket ladder against the wall instantly becomes a stylish spot to hang stockings. Bonus: you can decorate it with string lights or garland for extra cheer.
Stocking Holders on a Bookshelf or Dresser
Top shelves or dressers make a great alternative to a mantle. Use weighted stocking holders or removable hooks to hang them without damage.
Hooks on the Wall or Command Hooks
Stick-on Command hooks are renter-friendly and perfect for hanging stockings on the wall, near the tree, or in a hallway.
Along a Stair Railing
Wrap your stair railing in garland and attach stockings along the banister for a classic look.
On the Back of Dining Chairs
Tie stockings with ribbon to the back of dining chairs for a unique and decorative touch, especially cute for kids!
Under a Windowsill
If you have a deep windowsill or ledge, hang stockings underneath for a cozy look that lets natural light shine through your decor.
