Christmas Tree Skirts That Complete Your Christmas Display

A beautifully decorated Christmas tree deserves an equally beautiful finishing touch. Christmas tree skirts are designed to neatly cover your tree stand while creating a soft, decorative base for presents, helping your entire Christmas display feel more complete and inviting. Whether you're decorating a compact apartment tree or creating a centrepiece for the family living room, the right tree mat adds warmth, texture and a polished look that ties everything together.

Our Christmas Tree Skirts collection includes classic linen-look, knitted, plush and embroidered snowflake designs in a selection of colours and sizes to suit both real and artificial Christmas trees. With options available in 90cm and 120cm diameters, it's easy to find the right tree skirt for your home and decorating style.

Why Use a Christmas Tree Skirt?

While Christmas tree skirts are often chosen for their decorative appeal, they also serve several practical purposes. They conceal the tree stand, catch fallen pine needles from real Christmas trees, help protect flooring beneath the tree and provide a beautiful place for Christmas presents to sit. Instead of gifts surrounding a metal stand or plastic base, a tree skirt creates a clean, coordinated display that looks just as impressive on Christmas morning as it does throughout December.

Many families also reuse the same Christmas tree skirt year after year as part of their Christmas decorating tradition, making it a timeless addition to their festive decorations.

Choosing the Right Size Tree Skirt

Choosing the correct size helps create a balanced look beneath your Christmas tree.

90cm Christmas tree skirts are ideal for smaller and medium-sized trees, apartments, bedrooms, entryways and compact Christmas displays where space is limited.

120cm Christmas tree skirts suit medium to larger Christmas trees, providing extra coverage beneath wider branches while leaving plenty of room for Christmas presents to be displayed around the base.

If you're unsure which size to choose, measuring the diameter of your existing tree stand or the lower branch spread will help ensure the skirt sits neatly beneath your tree.

Choose a Style to Suit Your Home

Different Christmas decorating styles call for different textures and finishes.

Linen-look Christmas tree skirts offer a relaxed farmhouse-inspired look with natural tones and soft ruffled borders that pair beautifully with timber furniture and rustic Christmas décor.

Knitted Christmas tree skirts create a cosy, traditional feel with soft woven textures that complement Scandinavian, modern and neutral interiors.

Plush Christmas tree skirts feature a soft faux fur-style finish that adds warmth and luxury beneath the tree while providing a comfortable surface for displaying presents.

Snowflake Christmas tree skirts combine festive embroidery or printed snowflake designs with classic Christmas colours, making them ideal for traditional decorating themes.

Finding the Right Colour

Neutral colours such as white, beige and natural linen blend effortlessly with almost any decorating style and allow colourful Christmas ornaments to remain the focal point. Red tree skirts bring a more traditional festive feel and pair beautifully with classic Christmas colour schemes featuring green, gold and white decorations.

Whichever colour you choose, a coordinated tree skirt helps create a more finished look beneath your Christmas tree while framing gifts in a way that looks beautiful throughout the festive season.

Suitable for Real & Artificial Christmas Trees

Christmas tree skirts are suitable for both artificial and real Christmas trees. They help disguise tree stands while creating a decorative base that works equally well in living rooms, bedrooms, offices, reception areas and commercial Christmas displays.

For real trees, a tree skirt can also help collect fallen needles, making seasonal clean-up a little easier.

Easy to Install & Store

Most Christmas tree skirts simply wrap around the base of the tree and fasten securely using built-in buttons, straps or ties depending on the design. After Christmas, they fold away easily for compact storage and are ready to use again the following festive season. Many styles are also machine washable, making them easy to freshen up before decorating each year.
