A Christmas pillow you can make in minutes

Hi Shabby Creek friends!  I’m Barb with The Everyday Home and I am so happy to be here today sharing my Christmas pillow.  This oh-so-quick ‘n easy project, inevitably, turned out to be one of my favorites this year, and I hope it will inspire you, too.  

DIY Sweater Stocking Christmas Pillow

……………………………………………………………

I found these cute little, navy blue sweater stockings at Target in the Dollar section.  They were only $3 each.

I love the cute little, white poms.  Now, I realize not everyone can use this color.  Navy is not a typical Christmas color.  But, when you just so happen to own two navy blue chairs in your Living Room, they are perfect.

I already had these two sweater pillows which I had created last Christmas from a Goodwill sweater.   They were the perfect size pillows for this project.  You can read my easy instructions for making a DIY Sweater Pillow here.

Here is how these same sweater pillows were used last year…

After simply attaching the mini stocking to the front of the sweater pillow with some needle and thread, I then filled the stocking with sprigs of greenery and a few berries.  It literally took me about 10 minutes from start to finish.

I added a navy plaid throw plus a snowflake-design runner on the back of the chair, and I love how well it all came together…

I have put in a lot of hours on our home this Christmas season.  But, this was one of the easiest, least expensive and quickest projects I completed.  I sure do love the impact it gave our Living Room.

    Love the sweater pillows, and cute idea adding the stocking with the greenery. Inexpensive project, and cute! I believe I have some sweaters that have shrunk, at least that’s what I am telling myself, lol.

      Hi Allison,
      Thank you! I did not make the snowflake pillow and don’t remember where I got it, Target or Homegoods most likely? Sorry I couldn’t be of more help 🙂

    This pillow is just precious. I have to say that I really love the ribbon you used last year on this pillow best, but I am from Alabama and we think everything looks better in houndstooth. Merry Christmas Ya’ll and Roll Tide Roll
