I purchased this faux fur Christmas tree skirt over a year ago, so I’ve used it for the past two Christmas’s.  My two cats love the faux fur, so I’m sure it’s super cozy because they are always laying under my tree.  This year, I decided to wash it  before putting it away for next year.  I washed it on gentle cycle, and hung it to dry.   It came out perfectly!   I’d purchase this again and do recommend this faux fur tree skirt.
