Spiritual Stocking Stuffers: Catholic Edition

This post contains affiliate or associate links with several businesses (which means if you shop through the links, I earn a small commission). As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases

Here’s the deal – this might not be the only Christmas gift guide I publish here this year – BUT, I had to let you know about these products before they sell out! Many small business owners are worried about delays in shipping, so they are marketing early and planning on closing shop a few weeks before Christmas.

I want you to get these gifts while they are available!

Here are a few Catholic gifts that are making me JUMP with excitement this year!

AMAZING Catholic Gifts for Stockings!

These play dough kits are out of this world!

This sensory Nativity themed play dough kit encourages independent play for kids and allows for endless creativity and fun. Watch and see their imaginations run wild with this kit!

These kits will be going next to my children’s shoes for the feast of Saint Nicholas! They are 4 years old and 9 two boys and a girl – they all love these kits!

Want to see more Catholic sensory kits that incorporate play doh? Check out Cultivating Catholics!!!

Cultivating Catholics has a Noah kit, Saint Therese’ kit, a monthly subscription program and more!!!

These tattoos, so cute!

My 4 year old daughter LOVES tattoos! I was so happy to see that Saintly Heart has some really great ones available! Perfect stocking stuffer!

Saintly Heart Temporary Tattoos

Temporary Tattoos can be fun gifts for older kids and teens too! I love the ones from Just Love Prints and Pink Salt Riot.

Catholic Gifts for Teenagers and Young Adults

Catholic Phone Accessories

Pink Salt Riot has phone accessories that your pre-teen, teen and young adult children will LOVE. I am confident that they will not roll their eyes at these gifts! Okay, I can never guarantee that – BUT, they will use these even if the eyes roll!

Pink Salt Riot sells screen cleaners, phone cases and phone grips.

If you know someone who loves the “Boho” style, I think they will love the phone grips.

And look, this one looks EXTRA festive :). You could totally put this in a teen’s shoe on St. Nicholas Day!

Another idea for Catholic Teens – a car Rosary!

Refuge Rosaries are very cool -but hurry, only one car rosary left!

Small Things Great Love Rosary

I also love Rosaries from Small Things Great Love! The one-decade Rosary isn’t technically a car Rosary, but could be!

If you would like a gift guide that is separated into age categories – plus you can download and print it out – I wrote this one: The Ultimate Catholic Christmas Gift Guide

Catholic Gifts for Adults and Children

A Handmade Brown Scapular

Sara Estabrooks, from To Jesus Sincerely is selling this creations on Instagram only! Every first Saturday she posts the scapulars she made that month. I’m not sure if she will be doing this in December, so head on over ASAP if you want one! They are beautiful!

A Crucifix from Rough 2 Rustic! Every home should have a crucifix and I LOVE how these are modern and not overwhelming. This shop has great options and are perfect for Baby’s First Christmas, a child’s bedroom or a new home!

Catholic Saints Wine Glass Charms from Madonna Rose Designs. Are you gifting anyone a bottle of wine or wine glasses this year? Throw in these wine charms and you’ll be keeping Christ in Christmas in the most unique and awesome way! There is a Sacred Heart of Jesus Wine Charm!

Chocolate made by Catholics, yes please! This chocolate was donated by the new Catholic All Year Market (formally Pillar and Pearl). You can also purchase chocolate from the Trappistine Quality Candy Sisters!

Catholic Jewelry from Telos. Jessica from Telos does not disappoint! Get your mom a Miraculous Medal and some earrings, get me the Trove box and the jewelry box, get your bff the subscription box and while you’re there, pick up something for yourself.

Another super-fun Instagram find that will pair PERFECTLY with the girl’s Be Yourself Journal:

The decade rosary pop-it bracelet

The decade rosary pop-it bracelet!

My middle school radar went off the charts when I saw this one!

Get it from CatholicStickerClub!

Don’t forget to get a subscription to the club while you are there!

Sweatshirt from No Heart Untouched

Catholic Gifts For Men

My husband loves his Saint Joseph Tee from No Heart Untouched.

By the way, you have got to check out this whole shop! No Heart Untouched has a Rosary Abacus all my children fight over, a sweatshirt I want, Winter hats for men (shhh, my husband might be getting one lol)!

He also loves his Rugged Rosary. The WWI Battlebeads are a big hit. Our Lady’s Armory also sells WWI replica Rosaries. They are my favorite style of Rosaries to give men!

I am also excited that Sock Religious has come out with a larger size option as well as “no show” or as I like to call them, ankle socks.

I never bought my husband socks from them in the past for fear they would be to small. This year, I can get him Saint Michael Socks or Saint Joseph ones!

A hat from Kolbes Little Flowers This is an awesome distressed ball cap with the numbers of St. Maximilian Kolbe’s prison number on the front. Has a velcro strap in the back for easy adjustment. Great for men or women. Available in grey, black, or navy blue.

Spark up a conversation with this hat, as people may question what the numbers stand for. This gives you an opportunity to spread the faith and to spread devotion to this great saint, as this was his prison number.

I wrote this – it’s a free download!

Some Family Favorites:

My 9 year old son loves Annunciation Design’s Rosary Tracker

Annunciation Designs has a ton of awesome gifts!

All three of my children are really into Dry-erase activities right now. The Rosary Tracker from Annunciation Designs and the Abacus Rosary from No Heart Untouched are highly recommended!

My nephews who are 5-9 months old (I have 3!) LOVE this Decade Rosary Teether!

My Dad loves this mug from Annunciation Designs.

My twenty-something sister’s favorite gift last year was this sticker from Just Love Prints. I want the mug I gave her this year from Rakstar Designs. Speaking of mugs – I love the big ones! 15 ounces! This one is also great from Rakstar Designs!

My four year old daughter loves stickers and tattoos. I mentioned the tattoos above, but here is a great sticker bundle from Just Love Prints! She LOVES all of these (I was sent some for an honest review, and honestly, we love them!)

She also loves helping in the kitchen, so I am loving this kid’s apron from Annunciation Designs!

And I have a slight obsession with pretty, cozy blankets 😉

Want more ideas?

Don’t forget to download the ULTIMATE CATHOLIC GIFT GUIDE!

Don’t forget Advent!

And Advent Calendar that is actually Christ-centered

The Deluxe Nativity Sticker Advent Calendar from Sketch and Sentiment is beautiful. I’m thinking about buying it for my home, so I had to share it with you too!

And please give more boys and girls the Be Yourself Journals!

Be Yourself Journal with Our Lady’s Armory Rosary

Want that Rosary? Get it at Our Lady’s Armory!

My son started telling me “so and so has a crush on me” and asking “can I listen to the top 40 while I empty the dishwasher” . . . so I knew, it was time to give him a Be Yourself Journal.

And guess what! He worked on it after Adoration at home . . . he came and showed me a page and we laughed. He interviewed my husband and I for another page and best of all . . . He said:

“I gotta admit Mom . . . it’s a good book!”

My son, Xavier (age 9 and a half).

The Girl’s Be Yourself Journal is absolutely perfect for the 6th grader or 11 year old in your life! I have had moms tell me they bought their daughters’ one, then the daughter filled it and asked for another! This journal was truly inspired by the Holy Spirit, and this is the perfect time to remind all young girls that God created them exactly how they are to grow in love with Him!

You can also purchase just the coloring pages! You will receive an instant download after you place your order!

GUIDE: How to Plan your Own Prayer Wine Chocolate Retreat

Be Yourself! Journal

Journal for tweens and teens

prayerwinechocolate

I’m Amy Brooks, I connect Catholics! Make Catholic friends that love a GNO! Attend a retreat, start a parish group! Author of Be Yourself Journals 🙂

When I was a little girl, I vaguely remember a sil When I was a little girl, I vaguely remember a silver and blue medal fastened to my school uniform with a pin. My mom put that medal on my uniform. I don’t remember asking any questions, but I still think that blue was so pretty.
Fast forward about 9 years, and another memory surfaces… my Dad took our family to a church in a neighborhood we had to drive to. I remember parking across the street and entering the front doors of the @miraculousmedal Shrine. I recall the pads of paper placed on the marble in front of the different statues. These little memo 📝 pads were notes to God, asking Our Lady to intercede for us. I loved that I could write an intention but that one of the suggestions was “for a Catholic boyfriend” I was 15, I checked that box.
But honestly, I wasn’t a “Mary” person when it came to prayer.
Any personal prayer addressed Jesus or God.
10 years later my friend’s Mom gave me a Miraculous Medal keychain. I put it on my keys and life went on…

And over a decade later… it was that shrine I went to with this big idea about a Catholic gift guide and a giveaway.

But confession, many times in between those years each and every time I was going through something hard,I visited that place.
I poured my hearts desires on those little memo papers.
I asked Our Blessed Mother to pray for me.
I begged God to answer my prayers.

And He did.

Without me knowing the details of the Miraculous Medal.
But that time I went in there with the gift guide and giveaway idea… I was asked if I was only going to write one blog post.

That question inspired a second.
I researched the Miraculous Medal and read that Our Lady promised graces, especially to those who wore it around their neck.

More graces? Yes please 

I wrote a post…” 5 Reasons Why I wear a Miraculous Medal and maybe You Should Too”.
Church Pop @churchpop asked if they could publish it.
It went viral… at least viral for me.

And a few weeks ago, I brought about 30 women there for a retreat.

I didn’t pursue Mary, Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal… I pursued her Son.
My pursuit was sloppy.
Like any mother, she couldn’t resist helping me a little.

O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you
No one is EVER beyond God’s abundant love, generos No one is EVER beyond God’s abundant love, generosity and power.

“I can’t go this year, but next year I hope to!” “I can’t go this year, but next year I hope to!”

I hear this every year when I’m planning the Prayer Wine Chocolate Retreat.

And every year I think…” I don’t know if I’ll be able to do this again next year.”

Each year- each day- is a gift.
Getting to plan a retreat for women that truly serves their minds, their souls and their hearts is truly a gift.
But the truth is, I never know if I’ll be given this gift again.

Jesus reminds us all in the Gospels that we all really don’t know what will happen in the future.
I don’t know what next year will bring…

But I do know that when women attend a Prayer Wine Chocolate Retreat for a day, they say things like

“I needed this”
“I would have paid you more”
“It’s like Christmas for Moms”

I understand life is busy. I feel strongly that the busyness is a distraction from the stillness Our Lord is calling us to.

If you really can’t attend this year’s Prayer Wine Chocolate Retreat, may I make a suggestion?

Get out your calendar and schedule a day to go to confession,
A day to go to Mass that is not Sunday,
A day to get together with someone else to pray the Rosary out loud and a day to spend time with another woman that needs your prayers.

All of these things are available on November 15th.
There’s still time to register!

If you want to join us this year, comment “Register “ and I’ll send you the details.

If you definitely can’t make it, drop a prayer intention in the comments- or message me- and we will bring your intentions with us!
