I have seen so many burlap tree skirt but they all have ruffles and I was looking for something more simple. When I saw this printed burlap at Hobby Lobby I knew that it was going to be perfect for a tree skirt! The best part is that because I wanted it to look simple that means it was going to be very simple to make! Yay!
The first thing I did was fold it in half horizontally and then again vertically. Then I measured from the inside corner a 24 inch radius and marked it with an invisible marker. Then I cut on that line through both layers of burlap.
Next I measured 4 inches and marked another line for the center hole and cut that as well.
Then I cut a straight line from the edge to the circle.
Next I flipped it over and used Mod Podge on all the edges to make sure that it will not fray. I let it dry for about an hour.
Love the simple and beautiful look! Just what I wanted!
Perfect, just love the tree skirt, felt candy canes and felt stars!
Add some pinecones and a little gold and its my perfect rustic tree!
