Theme-Oriented Christmas Tree Skirts
Follow a theme by using whatever fabric you’d like for the skirt (felt, taffeta, velvet, cotton), and then creating an interesting border by cutting out characters from other fabrics. Below are some cute themed ideas:
Santa & his Elves:

  1. Create a cute border of faces by alternating one Santa face for every 10 elf faces.
  2. Use a flesh-toned felt for all the faces, pink circles for rosy cheeks, white for Santa’s beard and hair, brown and yellow for the elves’ hair, and various colors for the elf hats.
  3. Draw on eyes, noses and mouths with a black superfine sharpie pen.

Gingerbread People:

  1. Create a ring of Gingerbread men holding hands along the border of your skirt. This is one of easiest borders to make since the Gingerbread man shape is the only cutting out you'll have to do!
  2. Glue them on so their legs are hanging off the edge of the fabric to add interest.

Winter Wonderland Theme:

  1. Use a background skirt fabric that is light blue, and cut out white fabric snowflakes for the border.
  2. You can also add falling snow by cutting out small circles and gluing them randomly on the blue fabric.
