I am getting excited about the holidays and already thinking about stocking stuffers. Today I’m sharing a DIY tutorial for Personalized Socks that could be added as a Stocking Stuffer gift! Socks that have sayings on the bottom of the feet are really popular right now and I thought it’d be fun to make some of mine own with the sayings I want! After I made the socks, I rolled up a package of Band-Aid® Brand Adhesive Bandages holiday collection in them. Such a cute and personalized stocking gift! Plus, band-aids are an essential that everyone needs.
How to Make Fun & Creative Personalized Socks for the Holidays
First, you’ll want to go shopping for the supplies for your personalized socks. I picked up some packages of socks and boxes of Band-Aid® Brand Adhesive Bandages holiday collection at Target.
Band-Aid® Brand Adhesive Bandages heals hurts faster and are the #1 Doctor Recommended Brand. Paw Patrol and Star Wars Band-Aid® Brand Adhesive Bandages are available at Target and would make great stocking stuffers for kids.
For this stocking stuffer, you’ll need:
- Band-Aid® Brand Adhesive Bandages holiday collection
- Two Pairs of Socks (I went with fuzzy knee high socks!)
- Heat Transfer Vinyl
- Cutting Machine
- Ribbon
- Measuring Tape
- Two Strips of Cardboard (I used two flaps from a cardboard box.)
Measure the ‘working space’ on the bottom of your socks. This will be the space you have to layout your text.
In your Cutting Machine’s software, layout your text in a black or bold font in the width and height that you measured in the step above. You’ll want to mirror the text after you are done, so it is facing the correct way after you iron it onto the socks. After that, set the machine to Cut Edge and also select Heat Transfer Material (and adjust your cutting blade to the correct number for this material).
Print out your design and then remove the heat transfer material that is around (and inside) the letters. I used a flocked heat transfer material, which has a fuzzy texture to it. Perfect for warm and cozy socks! The last step is ironing your design onto your socks. I put a thin piece of fabric over it, before I apply the hot iron to it. After you’ve ironed on the design, pull of the clear backing and the letters will be adhered/stay on the sock.
These are the fun sayings I decided to add to the back of the socks I made! I can’t wait to gift these!
To make the gift a little more special, I rolled up a package of the Band-Aid® Brand Adhesive Bandages holiday collection into each sock.
Just tie a festive ribbon around each rolled up sock and you have a thoughtful small gift or stocking stuffer!
