The Legend Of How Christmas Stockings Started
Although stockings aren’t the main event on Christmas day, they still can be just as exacting as unwrapping your presents from under the Christmas tree.
According to traditions, the origins of the Christmas stocking involve a folkloric tale of a kindly Saint Nicholas and a poor family. Saint Nicholas went to a family's home and placed gold coins in the stockings of three poor sisters. One night, Saint Nicholas decided to throw bags of gold coins down the chimney instead, due to how poor the family was. These bags of coins landed in the stockings.
As with many other festive traditions, the custom of hanging a stocking didn’t come into place until the 19th Century.
