FAQs
How to pick the right Christmas tree skirt for your tree?
From endless design and fabric options to different shapes and sizes, picking out the best tree skirt for your Christmas tree might be more complicated than you think, but it's truly a personal preference. King of Christmas merchandiser Martha M. says personal design and size are the two main factors when choosing the best tree skirts for your tree.
"Firstly, you have to consider what your overall theme for the tree is, Martha said. "Is it rustic farmhouse, winter wonderland, classic red and green?"
While you're figuring out the best Christmas tree theme, Martha told w&h to consider choosing a colour that goes well with your theme and also contrasts with your floor for a visually appealing look.
When finding the perfect size tree skirt, Martha advises that you first need to decide whether you want an oversized or fitted tree skirt.
"For a more fitted look, we recommend your tree skirt to be a little larger than the diameter of your stand but smaller than the diameter of the tree's outer branches. If you are more into the oversized look or expecting to have a lot of presents under your tree, we recommend sizing up."
And if you want a switch from the classic tree skirt to the trendy tree collar, Martha says tree collars are meant to be tucked under the tree and should be slightly larger than the tree stand's diameter.
Should a Christmas tree skirt be wider than a tree?
If you're working within the constraints of a small living room layout, you may be wondering just how big your Christmas tree skirt needs to be.
"Your tree skirt doesn’t need to exceed the width of your tree dramatically. It should cover the stand neatly, with just enough space for a soft halo of presents or ornaments. Anything too large can throw off the proportions of the room," explains Edward Simon, Director of Direct Fabrics.
Once you've decorated the bottom of your tree, it's time to start choosing your Christmas tree topper idea. That way, your tree is shining bright all the way up and down.
