How To Measure A Christmas Stocking.
Measuring A Christmas Stockings.
This is a very simple yet accurate method for measuring Christmas Stockings. Just lay the Plush Stocking on a flat surface. Take a measuring tape or other measuring device. Place the measuring device at the upper left corner of the cuff and measure down, diagonally across the Stocking to the toe of the boot. This gives you the length of the Fleece Christmas Stocking. For the width of the Stocking, simply measure across the cuff from end to end. We have found that some manufacturers include the hanging loop in their measurement. This can add 1½ to 2 inches to the length of a Red Plush Christmas Stockings. When checking out other websites and make sure you ask how they measure their Christmas Stockings.
Tips on Matching Christmas Stockings.
Here are a few tips we have found that might be helpful when matching an existing stocking. You probably will not be able to find a 100% match. Fabrics, materials and styles have changed over the years and even some of the colors are a bit different. While you may not be able to obtain an exact match you should at least be able to purchase Christmas Stockings that are uniform in size. Older Plush Fireplace Stockings may vary in width so make sure you have this measurement. Some older Stockings have a bit more room in the toe area. You can measure the bottom of your older Stockings from heel to toe and then from top to bottom at the toe. Compare these measurements with newer Stockings as well.

The Evolution of Christmas Stockings.
Christmas Stockings have come a long way since they were first used as part of the Christmas tradition. The only options used to be purchasing 12 or 18 inch Christmas Stockings and they were only plush fabric.
