The 20 Best Christmas Tree Collars to Make Your Holiday Decor Look

I switched from a tree skirt to a christmas tree collar about five years ago and I’ve never looked back. Tree skirts always get bunched up, covered in pet hair, and just look messy after a day or two. A collar gives the base of your tree a clean, finished look that a skirt just can’t match.

It’s like putting a beautiful pot on a plant instead of leaving it in the plastic nursery container. It just completes the picture. It also keeps my dog from trying to drink the tree water, which is a huge bonus.

Whether you want something rustic, modern, or super glam, there’s a christmas tree collar out there. I’ve rounded up some of my favorites for 2026 that I’ve either used myself or have heard great things about from friends and fellow gardeners.

 

 

Woven & Natural Tree Collars

These are my go-to for a warm, cozy, and slightly rustic feel. They add texture without being too loud.

 

 

Pottery Barn Hand-Woven Vine Christmas Tree Collar

This one is priced at $129.

If you’re going for a natural or boho holiday look, this is a fantastic choice. The handwoven vine is just beautiful and adds a ton of charm. It really makes the base of the tree look intentional and stylish.

It does a great job of hiding the entire tree stand, so all you see is this lovely texture. It feels very elegant and polished.

The Downside: Some people say assembly can be a little tricky, so set aside a few extra minutes for it.

 

 

West Elm Woven Christmas Tree Collar

This one from West Elm is $150.

I love this for a more modern, relaxed vibe. The water hyacinth basket weave is clean and structured, but it still feels natural and not too heavy. It’s a really refined look.

It also has a nice, tall profile, which is great for covering those bigger, bulkier tree stands completely. No more awkward metal legs poking out.

The Downside: It’s definitely one of the pricier options on the list.

 

 

Balsam Hill Woven Water Hyacinth Christmas Tree Collar

You can get this one for about $100.

Balsam Hill is known for quality, and this collar is no exception. It has an iron frame inside the woven water hyacinth, so it’s super sturdy and holds its shape perfectly.

It gives the base of the tree a really warm, polished feel. It’s a high-end look that really conceals the stand well.

The Downside: Like a few of the other structured ones, it takes a little time to put together.

 

 

Rocinha Rattan Christmas Tree Collar

This is a great budget find at just $40.

For something affordable that still gives you that natural texture, this is a winner. It’s a handmade seagrass weave that has a very unfussy, relaxed look to it. It just works.

It’s pretty flexible and can fit a variety of tree sizes, which is handy. It’s a simple way to get the look without a big investment.

The Downside: It doesn’t have an internal frame, so it’s not as rigid as some of the more expensive options.

 

 

Crate & Barrel Scalloped Fiber Christmas Tree Collar

This Crate & Barrel collar is $130.

I just love the little details on this one. The scalloped edge gives it so much personality! It’s a rattan weave, but it has a wire frame inside so it’s lightweight yet keeps its shape.

This is perfect for a coastal or neutral holiday theme. It’s a nature-inspired look that feels a little more special than a standard basket weave.

The Downside: It’s made for a specific size range, so make sure to measure your tree stand first.

 

 

Metal Tree Collars

Metal collars can feel modern, industrial, or even a little bit glamorous. They’re usually super easy to wipe clean, too.

 

 

CB2 Liquid Textured Brass Christmas Tree Collar

This is a splurge at $199.

Okay, this one is a showstopper. If you want a glam, luxurious look, this is it. The hammered and polished brass has this incredible rippled texture that catches the light beautifully.

It adds so much sophistication to the tree. The surface is really dynamic and feels like a piece of art.

The Downside: The brass color can sometimes look a little different in person than it does in the online photos.

 

 

Birdrock Home Hammered Metal Christmas Tree Collar

This one is a great deal at $50.

If you like the hammered metal look but don’t want the CB2 price tag, this is your answer. It has a great reflective finish that adds a touch of class without being over the top.

It comes in panels that are really easy to snap together around the tree. It’s a quick and easy way to get that sophisticated metallic look.

The Downside: It’s a bit thin, so you have to be careful not to dent it when you’re storing it.

 

 

Pottery Barn Genoa Metal Tree Collar

At just $44, this is a super affordable option.

Sometimes you just want something simple and clean that gets the job done. This metal collar does exactly that. It’s a versatile design that works with almost any decor style.

It’s a no-fuss way to cover your tree stand and give your setup a quick, stylish upgrade. People say it’s surprisingly sturdy for the price.

The Downside: The finish is pretty basic; it doesn’t have the texture or depth of more expensive metal collars.

 

 

Glitzhome Hammered Red Metal Christmas Tree Collar

This festive collar costs around $60.

Nothing says “Christmas” like classic red. This hammered red metal collar brings a wonderful, nostalgic charm to the tree. The texture keeps it from looking flat and boring.

It’s great for a traditional holiday theme and really makes the green of the tree pop. It’s also designed with an opening for cords, which is a smart touch.

The Downside: The bright red color is great for Christmas but isn’t as versatile as a neutral metal.

 

 

Wood Tree Collars

I’m a big fan of wood collars for a farmhouse, rustic, or even a modern Scandinavian look. They feel solid and timeless.

 

 

Crate & Barrel Skei Wood Natural Christmas Tree Collar

This beautiful wood collar is $149.

This one is just gorgeous. It’s made from acacia wood, and the natural grain is on full display. The ribbed, cuff-like design is modern and super classy.

It feels incredibly solid and well-built. It’s the kind of piece you’ll have for years and years. A perfect enhancement for the tree.

The Downside: It doesn’t come in a ton of sizes, so it might not work for very large or very small trees.

 

 

Wayfair St. Ives Solid Wood Christmas Tree Collar

This one is priced at $80.

If you’re going for that cozy, rustic farmhouse theme, this is a great fit. It’s a solid wood collar with a charming, almost vintage-inspired look. It’s very stable once you set it up.

It just blends right in with that warm, inviting holiday vibe. It feels sturdy and looks much more expensive than it is.

The Downside: The design can make it a little tricky to get a watering can in there if you have a real tree.

 

 

BarnwoodUSA Reclaimed Wood Christmas Tree Collar

This reclaimed wood collar costs $120.

I love anything made from reclaimed wood. It adds so much character and texture. This collar gives you that authentic, rustic farmhouse look that you just can’t get with new wood.

It’s really durable and stable, perfect for households with kids or pets who might bump into the tree. The unique texture is fantastic.

The Downside: Reclaimed wood is heavy, so it’s a bit more cumbersome to move and store than other options.

 

 

What I Look For in a Christmas Tree Collar

First thing’s first: measure your tree stand! You need to know the diameter and height of the stand to make sure the collar will actually fit over it. Nothing is more frustrating than getting your collar home and realizing it’s too small.

Think about assembly. Some collars are a single piece you just drop over the stand before you put the tree in. Others are hinged or come in panels that you connect around the trunk. If you hate assembling things, a one-piece collar might be better, but they are harder to store.

And finally, if you have a real tree, make sure you can still get your watering can to the base. Some collars sit very flush against the trunk, which looks great but can make watering a pain. I look for one with a slightly wider top opening or a design that gives me a little room to pour.
