What can you get for a Christmas tree skirt under $70?
101 of the 199 Christmas tree skirts listed by US retailers on 31 August 2026 were under $70, and their median was $28.99. The whole market's median is $66.99, so the cheaper half is not a fringe of the category — it IS the category.
Under $70 the choice is really a choice of material, and the materials do not cost what you would guess: velvet is the cheapest median here and faux fur is among the dearest.

Velvet reads as the expensive option on a tree and prices as the cheap one, because a tree skirt is a flat circle of fabric and velvet is the least labour of the six. Faux fur costs more for the opposite reason: the pile has to be backed or it will not lie flat, and a fur skirt that does not lie flat is visibly wrong from across the room.

Sizing, which is where most of these go wrong
- Measure the tree stand, not the tree. A 48-inch skirt around a 7-foot tree looks right; the same skirt around a 9-foot tree looks like a napkin.
- The centre hole should clear the stand's post, not the trunk. Listings quote the outer diameter and rarely the hole.
- A skirt with a back opening and ties goes on after the tree is up. One without means lifting the tree. Almost every listing below $30 in this pull has the opening; several above $50 do not, because a continuous circle photographs better.
