Our Holiday Mushrooms Cheer throw pillow is hooked in wool. The loops are pulled through the backing one at a time, so the face carries a raised pile you can feel.
A textured accent for a room that has gone too smooth. Set it against smooth linen or velvet and the texture contrast does the styling work for you.
Black ground with CHEER lettered in white across the middle. A red poinsettia, holly leaves and a pair of pale gray mushrooms frame the word. Small red berries dot the lower corners. The dark ground makes it work in a room that skips the usual red and green.

Wool pulled loop by loop through a backing, the way hooked rugs have been made for two centuries, is what gives this piece its depth and its weight in the hand. These are made in limited seasonal quantities. The wool is why this one goes back into the box every January instead of into the bin. Makes a good gift for a Christmas host, a newlywed couple, or a family collection that grows every year.
