Stalking & Stocking

These two don't sound quite the same, at least in my ears. But they're pretty close, and they were my son's suggestion. So I've been saving them for the holiday season, y'know? ;)

Mantel & Mantle

-el – A covering, often decorative, surrounding a fireplace. A great place to hang socks full of chocolate.
-le – This one has a lot of definitions, including: the layer of the earth between the core and the crust, and apparently some kind of cape-like cloak.

Happy holidays!

Plain & Plane

Two separate images today, to accommodate multiple definitions.
-ain – 1: (adj.) simple, unadorned. 2: (n.) grassy field.
-ane – 1: 2-dimensional surface. 2: abbreviation for airplane.

Happy holidays!

Blew & Blue

I suppose it also would have been accurate to put the word "blows" under both images.
