I shared the mantel last week and now I'm sharing the other ways I added Christmas in the great room/family room. Just a change of pillows and some natural and faux elements is all it needed.
This is the room the family spends time in and where we exchange gifts.
I filled my giant dough bowl with a mix of pine cones, berries, a couple of antler sheds and candles.
Striped and plaid pillows in Christmas colors on the sofa. This will be the last Christmas for this sofa.
This year since the sofa table is behind the sofa I decided to add a group of trees that I already had.
The one in the center has lights on it and it is cute at night when it comes on. It's from Pottery Barn and the others are just plain trees from Michael's.
To make the trees tall enough I turned this tray upside down and then balanced the trees front and back on top of it. No one sees this from the front.
On the other side of the room I removed the ivy plant from the urn and tucked in another tiny tree and surrounded it with pine cones.
An old needlepoint Christmas pillow showed up in a bag in storage that I had been missing for awhile.
And this little fellow can't decide where he wants to be.
The tree is in the far corner and soon gifts will be around it. I haven't quite gotten to wrapping those yet. I probably will wrap some tomorrow since we are expecting a rainy day. Good time to stay home and get those done.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Love the quilts around the tree. You need a close up of that one so I can pin it! The dough bowl adds a touch of rustic charm. And I love those pillows that are seeing their last Christmas on that couch.
