What is a tree collar?
It is typically used instead of a tree skirt. It is usually made out of a hard material that collars around the bottom of your tree. It is purely decorative to cover the base of the Christmas tree. They can be woven, plastic, or made out of galvanized metal.
Surround the Base with a Collar
Tree collars are often shaped as conical cylinders with the purpose of concealing the tripod base of the Christmas tree. They are most commonly made of natural materials such as metal, wood, willow fibers, cattails, or jute. Installation is easy, too—tree collars have a slit opening on one side and often a hinged design that you can open to slip around tree stands.
Keep in mind that you can mix and match tree stands and collars with the overall theme of your Christmas tree dcor. For example, a woven tree collar would suit a French country cottage style, woodland accents, or ribbons made from natural fibers like jute and burlap. A metal tree stand would blend in well with modern and sleek decorations like the Georgetown ornament set. Beyond their functional purpose, tree stands and collars are elements to consider for style and design. These functional yet beautiful Christmas tree accessories are just some items to consider for your holiday decorating this year.
Precautions when buying tree collars
- It is important to know how much room you have to work with at the base of your tree. Some Christmas trees have branches that are higher from the floor while others have branches that are lower.
- Be sure to measure the height of your tree stands before going shopping for a tree collar.
