Tablecloths on a table for every day

We all trapeznichaem at dinner tables of different shapes and sizes. And, of course, such a table is always covered with something. The tablecloth not only protects its surface from crumbs, stains and scratches, but also performs an aesthetic function. Agree, it is much more pleasant to have dinner when the table is laid with a clean, neat, beautiful tablecloth.

There are different kinds of tablecloths. By their appointment, they are banquet and wedding, Easter and New Year's, tea and dinner, festive and everyday. From this article you will learn how to choose a tablecloth for every day.

Choose a tablecloth on the dining table

So, here are the basic parameters by which we choose a tablecloth before buying:

  1. The size of the tablecloth is one of the main problems. Often we buy too much or, conversely, a small tablecloth, which, when used, causes certain inconveniences. Too broad canvas can hang to the floor, or it has to be folded in half, which is not very nice looking. That's why before buying tablecloths on the table for each day you must first take measurements from your dining table by measuring its length and width or diameter. Then add to the figures obtained 30-40 cm (the length of the fabric hanging from the countertop).
  2. There are different forms of tablecloths: round, rectangular, square. There are also oval tables - they are also suitable only for the appropriate form of tablecloth. But on a round table for the kitchen you can put both round and square tablecloths.
  3. Tablecloths differ according to the material of manufacture. They are made of:

For daily use choose a synthetic tablecloth, or a combination of synthetics and cotton. Such fabrics well tolerate washing, do not crumple, do not stretch, do not sit down. And with them, stains easily removed, which is important for any tablecloth on the dining table. The tablecloth on a pvc table with Teflon-coated or made of polyester is also good for every day, especially if you have small children. But linen, cotton, silk tablecloths, although they look impressive, but have significant drawbacks in terms of care for such a fabric. It is better not to use them as everyday.

  • The color of the tablecloth is no less important. White is usually used as a holiday, and for everyday use, neutral tones are usually chosen - beige, coffee, golden. Alternatively, you can take the main color of your interior, which is repeated on the wallpaper, furniture upholstery, cushions, etc. It is very important to choose a tablecloth so that it harmonizes with the interior of your dining room, and with the dishes.
  • If you want to make a tablecloth one of the accents in the interior of a dining room or kitchen, buy bright colored tablecloths that will bring a certain mood to your interior. For example, yellow or orange gives warmth and comfort, and blue or green reflects an atmosphere of calm and restraint. And, of course, tablecloths can be plain or with a pattern.
  • A lot can say the name of the manufacturer. If you want the purchased tablecloth to be of good quality and served you for a long time, choose the products of only the best manufacturers:
  • Often, complete with a tablecloth sold the same table wipes (from 4 to 12 pieces). They are used not only for the festive, but for the daily table and decorate your serving.
