When people think about stand-out decor, they don’t usually consider the tablecloth. Because we spend most of our time at events conversing and enjoying the atmosphere, the humble tablecloth is often forgotten, leaving it for last in the event planner’s checklist. This is why so many parties and receptions end up with flat, lifeless, white linens.
There’s no need for boring tables at your next event. Today’s linen retailers sell a wide variety of dazzling designs. Here are a few ways to add sparkle and sass to your tables, and make your guests notice what’s beneath the plates for once!
Double Drapery
Want the classic look of white but also looking to add drama and dimension to your tables? Consider adding a second cloth to the mix. A fine, shimmering fabric in an angular cut draped over a round, white cloth makes a bold and beautiful statement without detracting from other décor. Consider layering two non-white colors for even more impact.
Table Runners
Another great idea for adding impact to your tables is to add a table runner. These gorgeous accessories may be made in tablecloth factories or by fine linen companies – it all depends on your budget and your needs. Choose varieties created in tablecloth factories to match your existing cloths and keep your event budget under control. Your guests will never know you saved a bundle when they see your beautiful dining spaces set up and sparkling!
Patterns, Monograms, Embroidery and More
If you’re looking for maximum impact, choose a table cloth with a pretty pattern. Monograms are popular for weddings and business events, while embroidered designs make an excellent investment to be taken home and reused again and again after the party is over. Whatever sort of design you choose, remember to maintain balance. If you choose bold and busy tablecloths, keep the surrounding décor muted. Too much can overwhelm your guests and ruin the beautiful design you’re aiming for. Keep it simple, and don’t forget your tablecloths!
