When it comes to decorating for the holidays, beautiful Christmas Stockings are an essential item on my decorating list. And, because I try to change-up my Christmas decorating theme each year, I’ve unknowingly become a “collector” of Christmas Stockings.
Here’s a round-up of my favorite holiday stockings and a few fabulous mantle photos to inspire your holiday decorating.

In one of the homes I decorated this year, animal print ribbon was used on the tree. I fell in love with the look and then I saw these to-die-for stockings. Next year my holiday theme may just to have a touch of animal print in it.

Who says a holiday stocking has to be shaped like a boot? I love the look of this whimsical mantle, using knit mittens as stocking stand-ins.
These Mackenzie Childs stockings are too cute for words. I love the jewel tone colors, embellishments around the cuff and that adorable puff ball on the tip of the toe. Available at Neiman Marcus

On many of the blogs I read, I’m seeing a trend in all white Christmas decor. I love the clean, fresh love of this color statement. The tree above is simple but so beautiful, and the stockings below are just dreamy.

In my book, the more lush your mantle garland, the better.

I think this mantle decor is stunning. I love the combination of antique mirrors and brown and white transferware.
