Christmas tree skirts are a beautiful way to dress up your tree. However, figuring out what size to get can be tricky since various size options exist. This guide shares tips and recommendations to help you choose the skirt that fits your tree.
Tree Skirt Sizes
The dimensions of a tree skirt depend on the height of your tree and how much coverage you prefer. Below is a breakdown of the sizes we have and the tree heights they’re most suitable for.
Small Christmas Tree Skirts: 18 to 36 Inches
18-inch tree skirts pair well with miniature tabletop trees, while 24- to 36-inch skirts are ideal for 4- to 5-foot Christmas trees. Tree skirts for small trees are elegant and add holiday cheer without taking up too much space.
Medium Christmas Tree Skirts: 48 to 60 Inches
Medium-sized tree skirts look best with 6- to 7.5-foot Christmas trees. They’re big enough to obscure the tree stand and provide space for presents, making them perfect for trees displayed in the living room or foyer.
Large Christmas Tree Skirts: 72 to 84 Inches
Big tree skirts are best suited for Christmas trees up to 14 feet or higher. These trees are commonly found in rooms with vaulted ceilings, hotel lobbies, and business centers that feature a grand holiday display.
Insider's Tip
A good rule of thumb for Christmas tree skirt size is to use one that’s at least 6 inches bigger than the full width of your tree. So, if your tree is 54 inches wide, you need a 60-inch tree skirt.
