This gift can be enjoyed over and over. It is perfect for gifting teenagers and adults. I have gifted it to friends who are challenging to give gifts to and are blessed with everything that they need.

The gift is a stocking filled with gags. I have always given it as a Christmas gift, but it can just as easily be given in a gift box or bag for another occasion. It would make a fantastic gift for someone needing a good laugh.

This gift is easy for anyone to make -even for people who aren’t crafty. The supply list is long, but the items are inexpensive and you may already have many of them around the house.  Also, you can pick and choose which gags to include in your stocking.

Instructions:

What you need to do first is choose what you will gift your gags in: a stocking, gift box or gift bag. Then either print the attached labels or handwrite some of your own. Trim the labels to size. Fill a baggie with the matching items. Staple the label to the baggie, and fill the stocking, box or bag.
