Christmas tree skirts that are on sale don’t have to become part of the ugly sweater contest at work. With the vast array to choose from, there is sure to be one that will fit just about any budget and the home’s overall decor. There are a few things to consider before making that final purchase and settling on something less than appealing.
Height: Consider the height of the tree when deciding on the diameter of the skirt. Even Christmas tree skirts that are on sale will have a variety of widths. For mini table tops, there are some that are as small as 4 inches on up to 20 inches in diameter. Their larger counterparts can go up to 56 inches in diameter. This size would be perfect for the 10 foot Fir in the family room.
Style: Does the tree have a theme or particular color palette? This would help determine the type of material, color, and any ornamentation the skirt would have. There is a classic white with red embroidered poinsettias and red trim, a traditional red velvet with the words Merry Christmas embroidered on it, and also shimmery gold and silver fabrics to adorn the base. For the mini table toppers, there is a Santa inspired wrap with plush red velvet and white trim that glimmers.
One quick search and there is sure to be a style and color that will work perfectly. Another benefit to wrapping the base is that it will protect the flooring beneath it should there be an accidental spill while watering, and it will catch quite a bit of the loose needles as well, making for a quick clean up.
