These Are the Best Stocking Stuffers From Oprah's Favorite Things 2023
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
You know the most wonderful time of the year is getting close when Oprah’s Favorite Things—Lady O and Oprah Daily’s annual guide to the must-give gifts of the holiday season—lands. If you haven’t already perused the list, now’s the time. There's a lot of hype around her gift recommendations, and the most popular items sell out quick every year.
While Oprah’s Favorite Things is a must-see for big gift ideas, we were inspired by the thoughtful, affordable gifts included this year. There are so many great stocking stuffer ideas that will surprise and delight your loved ones in ways they’d never expect—like a lavender-stuffed sleep mask to help them wind down at night or next-level gourmet hot chocolate. Stocking-stuffing isn’t as popular as it used to be, so the extra bit of care you put into curating their personalized bundle is sure to make for an unforgettable shared memory.
Pro Tip: Many of the gifts featured on this list come in sets of three, four, or even more. So if you’re stuffing multiple stockings for folks with similar tastes, break up the sets, and put one of each item in each stocking. Instead of one full set, your loved ones will get a little bit of everything.

CozyChic® 3-Pair Sock Set
This is stocking stuffer gold. Oprah has been a fan of Barefoot Dreams for years (she's converted many of us here at House Beautiful), and calls their cozy socks "blissful."
