The custom of hanging stockings dates back to the early 19th century, though its origins can be traced to earlier traditions involving gift-giving during the Christmas season. One popular legend suggests that St. Nicholas, known for his generosity, would place coins in the stockings of children who hung them by the fireplace to dry. Over time, this practice evolved into the modern tradition of filling stockings with small gifts and treats on Christmas Eve.
