We never used a tree skirt growing up and I did use one until 15 yrs. ago when our Christmas tree went into the bigger room. In order to support the tree and stand, dh has to lay tiles on top of the carpet and then a piece of plywood goes over it. I got some old fabric and just covered the wood so you wouldn't see it. I think I may have donated that material because I can't fine it so dh has been using old potato sacks to cover the wood now. It works with the décor in our family room.

I did see tree collars last year. They looked interesting. Someone made hers out of cardboard boxes that she duct taped together and then covered in fabric. She had a live tree so it had to be bigger than the ones from the HGTV video.
