To ask for the stocking back?

[FrankieDobie]

I had a tradition with my kids when they were little that I got them a stocking for Christmas and filled it with pyjamas, socks, books and little bits like that. This was from Father Christmas. The main presents separate from the stocking were from me. My sons are now in their 20s but still get a stocking every Christmas.

I now want to start this tradition with my granddaughter - but I want to use the same stocking every year so WIBU to ask for it back after Christmas or will I look mean?

Ironically I have made all my Niece and Nephews stockings - all same sort of style but personalised. I don't provide the contents generally other than if the present they get is small enough to go in. I didn't actually make my own daughters though - she has one from elsewhere lol. I think you need to ask the parents about the whole situation. Even to make the ones I did I asked and sent photos etc to get the OK. (Well they took a few weeks each and were hand quilted)
