Jute Tree Skirt
With the addition of my new tree, I
also needed a new tree skirt. I wanted to originally use burlap. Unfortunately
they ran out of it at my local fabric store. Seeing this is a time sensitive
project I choose to use jute instead. Which is still has a natural and organic
feel to it.
There is no sewing involved in this
project. I used one yard of fabric and I bought some ribbon to add as trim. I
cut my fabric in a circle to have about a 45" circumference. I then cut up
one side to the center and cut away a small circle for the base of the tree to
fit. Using my hot glue I trimmed out the edges with gilver colored glitter
ribbon and a beautiful satin ribbon in the color of moss. I adorned the front
of the skirt with our family name initial using some left over ribbon.
It looks beautiful under the tree!
The pictures do it very little justice.
