Your wife is the most important person in your life. You may have gotten her something really special for Christmas, but what about her stocking? You want to fill it with meaningful gifts that you know she enjoys. Pick stocking stuffers your wife will love with the following tips.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Look around her dresser and makeup counter. See what kind of perfume she wears and if she needs more. Also note the type of makeup she uses, including the exact colors. Buying the exact kind of makeup she uses shows you care enough to notice the details. Perfume and makeup used daily can run out quickly, so a replacement is always appreciated.

  2. Step 2

    Know what kind of jewelry she prefers: silver, gold, both, necklaces, earrings, rings or bracelets. Some women like all jewelry, but many have specific preferences.

  3. Step 3

    Choose magazine subscriptions that she already has and renew them, or buy her a new subscription to a hobby or interest she enjoys.

  4. Step 4

    Buy gift cards to her favorite stores. Though some may find gift cards impersonal, they're a hit with women who enjoy shopping and picking their own things. Make sure it is a store where she enjoys shopping and can buy something for herself, not something for the house or family use.

  5. Step 5

    Purchase fun food like chocolate, candy and wine for your wife's stocking. These things go over well with most women, even those who don't normally eat much chocolate or candy. Christmas is a special occasion, and many women allow themselves to splurge with specialty chocolates.
