The Flying History of Christmas Tree Skirts
Are you someone who eagerly awaits Christmastime every year? From the classic holiday tunes to the beautifully decorated trees, the festive ambiance of the Christmas season is truly magical. If you’re looking for a way to add elegance to your holiday decor, consider investing in a Christmas tree skirt.
A Christmas tree skirt is a decorative cloth placed around the base of a Christmas tree to hide the unattractive stand (and any other potential messes). The concept of a tree skirt can be traced back to the 1800s when the first Christmas trees were introduced. Initially, tree skirts were made of wool or flannel and laid flat on the ground. But with time, tree skirts evolved to become more elaborate and decorative.
During the 1930s, Christmas tree skirts became more popular and began being hung from the floor to create a “skirt” look. Since then, the popularity of tree skirts has only increased, and they are now available in an array of fabrics, patterns, and designs – from classic red and green velvet to chic burlap and even custom-made options.
Choosing the Perfect Christmas Pencil Tree
If you’re looking for a Christmas tree that’s both space-saving and stylish, a pencil tree could be the perfect option for you. As the name suggests, Christmas pencil trees are tall and slender, with a slim profile that makes them ideal for small apartments or rooms with limited space.
When choosing the perfect pencil tree for your home, consider the height, width, and number of branches. Some Christmas pencil trees are over six feet tall, while others are around four feet tall. The width of the tree often varies as well, so be sure to measure the spot where you intend to place the tree to ensure it fits nicely.
Another factor to consider when purchasing a Christmas pencil tree is the number of branches. While some may prefer a fuller tree with more branches, others may seek a more modest, minimalist approach. Remember that more branches typically equate to a fuller, more festive appearance!
If you want to elevate your holiday decor this year, why not combine the elegance of a Christmas tree skirt with the chicness of a pencil tree? Add a first-class touch to your home this holiday season with a festive combination that’s sure to impress. Remember to pack up your tree and its accessories neatly in your baggage when the season is over for stress-free storage until next year!
