Best Snowy Look: Tree Skirt, 48 Inch Snowy White Faux Fur

When it comes to tree skirts, our parent readers are divided into two camps: those that like a snowy (white fur) look and others that prefer a traditional buffalo plaid (red and black check) look.

For the first group, we recommend this 48″ tree skirt. It hits all the right notes: a snowy look with white fur at a price that doesn’t break the bank. 

What We Liked

• Reusable storage bag is nice.

• Looks like fluffy snow.

• Perfect size for most medium to large trees.

What Needs Work

• Doesn’t lay flat. Actually, that is more of a feature than a bug—to get that fresh snow look, it is better to have an uneven (not flat) texture, in our opinion. But we heard from readers who want a smooth, even look . . . so that is your call!

Best Budget Friendly: Red and Black Buffalo Check Plaid Tree Skirt

We liked the bang for the buck with this classic tree skirt—and the black and red check plaid pattern hits all the right notes for traditionalists.

What We Liked

• Nice fabric.

• Affordable.

• Vibrant colors.

• White snowflakes accents in various sizes set the aesthetic.

What Needs Work

• May fade when washed. 

Best Vintage Look: LimBridge Tree Skirt, 48 inches Cable Knit

Looking for something different?

For a tree skirt with a vintage or antique look, we recommend this cable knit tree skirt. Made with cream-colored yarn, we liked the overall warmth and homey design.

What We Liked

• Soft, thick fabric.

• Affordable.

• Ties together (no hook/latch).

• Subtle pattern provides vintage vibe.

What Needs Work

• No hook/latch attachment. This issue divides our readers—some like the hook/latch attachments as they provide a more seamless look. This tree skirt has yarn ties, which fit the vintage look . . . but some folks don’t like that.

Best For Small Trees: iMucci 36 inch Tree Skirt Snowy White

Most tree skirts are designed for larger trees (five feet and larger). But what if you have a small tree? This skirt is what we recommend. It has that snowy/white look folks like yet is sized (36″ diameter) best for smaller trees.

What We Liked

• Soft fabric.

• Snowy look.

• No shedding.

What Needs Work

• A bit pricey for the small size.
