Table Linen Information and Ideas
Bring subtle sophistication to your table with a well-selected table runner. A good way to gauge the size is select one that is the length of the table plus 12 inches to hang over the edge. For example: a 60 runner for a 48 table and a 72 runner for a 60 table.
Adding 12 to the length leaves 6" to hang over each side. Depending on your setting you may prefer 8" or 10" you may even want it to sit on the table top and not hang over the side. This can look nice as part of a decoration. There arent any rigid rules, feel free to choose your own "hangover".
Table linens were meant to have company. Pair you table runner with coordinated or complimentary placemats and napkins
Buy a variety of different table runners and change them out with the season, holiday or even the meal.
The European style of displaying runners on is to use two shorter table runners and lay them width wise over the table top. This can also serves as placemats on each side of the table.
Place complimentary placemats or table runners over top of your tablecloth for a fancy layered look.
Mix it up! For an updated look pair coordinated solids and patterns. Or be even more adventurous and alternate place settings using different complimentary colors of the same design.
Combine three color shades with your runners, placemats and napkins to create a soft heather look that is beautiful and versatile.
Pair a solid napkin with a more decorative one and use 2 napkins instead of one with your napkin ring.
