This holiday season, stocking stuffers will be all the rage. MINISO has no shortage of items that would bring joy to your loved ones.  

But what are the origins of stocking stuffers? The tradition started as European folklore, most famously St. Nicholas dropping gold down a chimney, where it landed in stockings drying by the fire. Then families began hanging stockings in hopes of finding small gifts.  

Early fillers were simple, like fruits, nuts, sweets, and small handmade items. At MINISO, we have all sorts of items matching those categories, and more! Here are staff picks for ideal stocking stuffers: 

1. MINISO Beauty Items:

Anjanette of Park Place clearly understood the assignment, selecting items from MINISO’s vast beauty offerings. Anjanette will be stuffing stockings with the Hello Kitty Eye Mask, Hello Kitty Cane Shop Christmas Face Mask, Sakura Cuddle Pocket Solid Perfume Stick, Strawberry Shortcake Hand Cream, and Color Gram Fruity Water Tint (Bunny Pink). Here’s why: 

“[These items] are everything you need to get ready and relax on Christmas morning. They’re also great everyday essentials that are easy to toss in your purse and use on the go.”

2. My Little Garden Blocks Star Wish Ring

Speaking of beauty, what you can build with the My Little Garden Blocks Star Wish Ring is simply stunning. MINISO has no shortage of small construction sets that will fit neatly in stockings of all sizes. Barbara of Montebello explains:

“This is the perfect size to fit inside a stocking. The cute design makes it a great item to display in your room – and it’s really fun to build!”  

3. Mickey Mouse Items

I love that grandmothers just know what their grandkids need. From filling us up with hearty home-cooked meals to getting us gifts to brighten up our day, they simply can do nothing wrong. Grandmothers have a huge selection of options to choose from for kids of all ages at MINISO. Rachel of Mesa MINISO shares:  

“I’d get my grandkids Mickey plushies since they love Mickey.”  

4. Handheld Fan

When I think of stocking stuffers, I like to think functional products – and whether you’re going on vacation or spending the day at a music festival, MINISO has a treasure trove of household items to stuff stockings. I definitely recommend getting your loved ones a handheld, portable fan. Here’s the sound bite:

“Handheld fans are perfect for music festivals, a hot summer day, to keep in your car for emergencies, or to keep at your desk when you need some air. And they’re USB-C rechargeable!”  

5. dearcloud Miffy Products

With the cold weather upon us, your skin needs moisturization now more than ever. Why not look cute doing it? Enter the dearcloud Miffy Products at MINISO. Let Saige of Great Lakes Crossing explain: 

“Miffy, makeup, cute packaging – need I say more? It even comes with a set of lip serum jelly, with one being a pH serum. Overnight lip butter and vanilla hand cream for the dry winter? I might need to put these in my own stocking this year.”
