After the first piece, bind off, cut yarn and weave in ends.
After you have finished the second piece, join the two pieces and crochet with dc all the way around the sides leaving the bottom open. Make 2 dc in same s at the bottom of tip and 3 dc in same s at the peak of the tip. Make 4 dc on the top of the tree. Make sure to place the two parts so that the sides where you made the sl st meet, otherwise it will be crooked.
Add a little stuffing as you go to make sure you get it in all the tips. Don't stuff the bottom part entirely just yet.
Break yarn and weave in ends.

Bind off and cut the yarn.
Put plastic granules in a nylon stocking and tie a knot on the stocking. Insert the stocking into the trunk of the Christmas tree and attach the trunk on the tree. Remember to place the trunk at the middle so that the tree will be able to stand.
If you want to use the tree as a pillow, you can use stuffing for the trunk instead of the plastic granules, but then it won’t be able to stand.
