This SPT was a no-brainer for me, as soon as I thought about it I pictured myself sitting on the couch at night snuggled under the awesome quilt Michelle made me for Christmas several years ago. I do this nightly throughout the winter, but I especially love it during December when the Christmas tree is there being sparkly and beautiful. There are many levels to my holiday comfort and I appreciate them all.
**What gives you holiday comfort?**

That does look comfy, the tree is beautiful and what a better time than when watching Christmas movies. :-)
It takes a GOOD friend to make someone a quilt for Christmas! That is a lot of Creative Fridays.
Your gifts beneath the tree look beautiful. It will almost be a shame to unwrap them.
WOW!!! WONDERFUL PHOTO! Love that you captured the perfect image on your television also. :) That sure does look cozy.
i totally love watching TV/reading/writing cards by the glow of the tree.
Christmas comfort! I love it when things slow down at the end of the day...
{Great picture with the tree and soft lighting...makes me want to curl up in a quilt with a good book even though it is 80 degrees outside!} ...it all looks so inviting...
Okay- I mentioned the quilt below...
what a great/talented friend you have!!
This is truly comfort!!
Michelle makes great lunches, crafts AND quilts for friends? WOW!!
This is a great photo! What gives me holiday comfort is much the same. Great resting spot, something fun on tv and perhaps a great snack in hand...and, if I'm lucky - snow outside! Guess I am really lucky at the moment!
this is totally random...but the amazon gold box deal today is all three seasons of arrested development for 28.99. i don't know if you already own them all, but i know you're a fan, so...

This is such a cozy looking scene. We are total cozy blanket people over here as well. I love that Michelle made you a quilt. It is not surprising at all- she is the master of sharing her talents!
That does look comfy for sure. What a beautiful tree tucked over there in the corner!
Thanks Rebekah, that's nice of you to pass on the info about Arrested Development. I do own all 3 seasons.
The comforter, the tree. Super cozy.
I love your comfort quilt by the Christmas Tree!
A quilt and a glowing tree definitely bring me comfort this time of year. Your presents look fabulous!
Heavenly!
Nice! I wish I were doing that right now. So far my nights have been too busy for by-the-tree snuggling, but I am definitely looking forward to it.
The Christmas tree, the quilt, the TV....that's a perfect photo! Great SPT as always!
That scene is so familiar, Jill. And you captured it so well.
I look forward to re-creating that scene tonight in my own home!
Comfort is definitely having a friend who makes quilts! I love that Michelle did that for you and that her gift means so much to you.
Tasha made Luci a quilt and I will always treasure it, plus I also have a quilt that my great grandmother made me.
Cute photo!
The first thing I thought of that gives me holiday comfort is wrapping presents. It's just relaxing and fun to me.
That is my idea of the perfect evening!
snuggling under a blanket...love it
sitting in the light of the christmas tree...love it
I have tree-envy! Your tree is so perfectly decorated and the presents are arranged so artfully. The very first thing I noticed was the festive scene on the tv--you captured it perfectly!
I love this photo, but I have to admit that it is giving me PTSD from two days of non-stop quilting because my sister in law who doesn't know how to sew decided she wanted to make quilts for all 4 of her kids and she wanted me to help her. ARgh! I wish I were sitting with you with my Christmas quilt!
I enjoy the same kind of comfort. Nothing beats the comfort of a warm quilt on a cold night. With a room full of sparkling lights.
i thought of you, as i cuddled under my down blanket to watch csi with the glow of the christmas tree last night (how's that for a run on sentence.) i love the glow of the tree and wish we could keep it up all year!
I couldn't have said it better. Love the quilt! Love the idea of snuggling under it! Love the sparkling tree!
That does look comfy.
i'm really missing having a tree right now. sitting next to the lights. it's comforting. maybe next year when i can enjoy hot chocolate without gagging again. :)
how did i not post on this one?
lovely and comfortable, for sure!
i love to sit in silence, late at night by the glow of the tree.
peaceful and thoughtful
