This fantastic Christmas stocking, available on Etsy, was designed to look like an animated character from a Studio Ghibli film. Studio Ghibli creates heart-warming (and mind-bending) films for children. This particular cuddly character is from the film 'My Neighbor Totoro', which is about sisters who move to the country, meet a forest spirit and go on adventures.
Studio Ghibli fans will fall in love with this adorable Totoro holiday stocking. The only thing better than a sac full of presents is an adorable critter-shaped sac full of presents. This festive version of Totoro sports a little red scarf, which makes him even cuter somehow.
The film 'My Neighbor Totoro' fills children (and adults) with joy, so it just makes sense for fans to incorporate this lovable character into their Christmas decor.
