This tree skirt coordinated wonderfully with the red stockings I also ordered from Joss and Main. The red was a tad bit lighter but still a true red. You will need to iron this before laying it out, as it does come a bit wrinkled. For those who own pets, I would like to point out that neither of my boxer boys were ever interested in the skirt due to any possible smells from the burlap. I think this is one tree skirt I will be able to use for many years to come.
