Posted - Feb 25 2013 : 10:54:24 PM Years ago my Mother made a Tree skirt out of deep red velvet and trimmed it in gold. My grand-daughter was 1st grade I think and she loved that skirt so great-gramma gave it to her and she wore it to school. MB

Posted - Dec 03 2012 : 11:23:20 AM What a cool idea!
I have a small tree skirt that my grandaughter (8 yrs old) loves! I am going to make her a skirt out of it. She will love it!
Thanks for sharing this nifty idea.

Posted - Dec 03 2012 : 10:46:03 AM Tree skirts aren't the same as they used to be. You almost have to make a tree skirt and then make the tree skirt into a skirt, in order to not look like the 'made in china' tree skirts in the stores these days. The one in that book is really cute!
