Weird Little Stocking Stuffers

Rx: For filling a stocking with tiny chaos

Stockings are where small, weird gifts shine. Everything here is little enough to fit in one and fun enough to get a laugh on Christmas morning. Mix a few together and you have a stocking full of tiny tinned fish, mushroom clips and a disco ball that answers questions.
