I folded in half, then again, and sort of cut a circle, and then one in the center, and then cut a line to wrap around the tree. You could add ties. I didn't.
Next up, cut strips out of additional fabric measuring about three inches. Squish it and create ruffles as you are gluing it down. I actually used the ruffles from the old curtains.
Row one down, and then I went in about an inch and started all over again.
The original tuturial has even more ruffles, but I didn't need a very big skirt b/c it's going around a little woodland themed tree that somehow entered my world a few years ago....I guess I was going through a woodsy pine cone stage. BUT....I'm digging the skirt. The ruffles I used were finished, but just raw fabric would still be really beautiful. Someday the woodland tree may get a vintage makeover, and this skirt is staying.

Love it! I would say I think I could even do this...but let's face it-I make it half way through the day before I realize I haven't had time to brush my teeth:) There's always next year!
