Sewing

    Sequined Christmas Tree Skirt

    Store-bought tree skirts often come on the small side, which means you either expose part of the stand or have presents spilling off. Our DIY design extends well past the bottom branches, so your tree gets the stage (and stage lights) it deserves. (You can scale this tree skirt to any size. Our version is 42 inches in diameter.)

    Moving-Blanket Pet Bed
