August 31, 2007, Newsletter Issue #21: Christmas Tree Skirts

Tip of the Week

Bronners.com Tip: Christmas trees look beautiful because of all the decorations, garland and lovely lights placed on it.  Christmas trees look even more beautiful when dressed up with Christmas tree skirts. A Christmas tree skirt is a skirt that surrounds the bottom of your Christmas tree at the base. They generally come with a slit and normally tie or fasten around the tree stand so you can add it either before or after the tree is decorated.

People really have a vast amount of choices when it comes to investing in a Christmas tree skirt.  You can purchase skirts that are made from velour, brocade, cotton or even something someone has taken the time to knit by hand.  Christmas tree skirts can have almost any scene on it, from a Santa Claus with his reindeer, to a nativity scene or even a snowman.  Skirts for your Christmas tree come in so many varieties that every household that needs one will most likely find one that suits the needs of the house.

Depending on the type of skirt you are interested in you can expect to pay from $25 to over $50 or more. Tree skirts are generally quite large because they must fit around the bottom of the tree and cover the tree stand, so you can expect to find skirts that are about 50 inches in diameter.

Christmas tree skirts really add to the beauty of the tree and even though by Christmas Day, the skirt will be covered with presents, your Christmas tree will look beautiful as you slowly add presents under it during the holiday season.
