Commemorate special milestones and firsts, such as baby’s first Christmas, first home, wedding anniversary, and other important moments. Are the kids into dance or sports? If so, create an ornament that ties into their current passion, and years from now, when they’ve moved on to something else, they’ll have the ornament to remind them of the time when their life was all about ballet or soccer or whatever their interests are today.
Once you’ve chosen a handful of personalized items for each recipient, you can finish off their Christmas stockings with favorite candies, snacks, treats, candy canes, and any other goodies they enjoy. Find ways to incorporate other items that go with the personalized ones you created for them, and on Christmas morning you’re sure to see lots of smiles on very happy faces.

You need to use a magnifying glass and look closely at the personalization. Some are not so great and you willl not be able to return. I have. Been a fan for years but was recently disappointed in a cash box I wish I had looked more close at the one I chose
