Trimming with a Tree

If you're the sort of person who is not too big on holiday decor but you'd still like to do a little something to make your home cozier for winter, this Christmas tree pillow may be just the thing.

I love this project because it doesn't feel all that much like Christmas. Yes, there's a tree on it, but that could be a regular old pine tree without any holiday connotations at all. And even if you feel the tree is a little too Christmas to be looking at every day once January rolls around, just flip the pillow over and you'll see simple and sophisticated red and green stripes, perfect all winter long.
