Square shaped hooks for hanging stockings?

Hi! We have a new build house with no chimney or mantlepiece (boo) so for Christmas this year I've decided to hang (empty) stockings on our IKEA Mosslanda picture ledge.

The only problem is that I can't find any hooks that are square shaped on the top to go over the rail comfortably. They're all rounded :(

Can anyone recommend any square shaped hooks for hanging stockings?

I got some in poundland last year, there were different sizes, got mine for over the doors.

We use command hooks for ours. We have always peeled them off afterwards without any damage.

Only just seen these replies! Thanks both :) I never thought of over the door hooks or stick on ones!

Stockings go at the end of the bed in our house. All part of the fun tossing a coin to see who will take the risk to sneak in with the filled stocking.

Tip: buy two the same so you can fill one downstairs, sneak in and do a quick swap.

search for square picture rail hooks.

@WeAllHaveWings Ah I saw those ones but was worried they might scratch the rail. As to the stockings themselves, I sewed one for each of us last year :)
