Enhancement With Tablecloth

The tablecloth forms an important part of decorative accessories in a home and events such as wedding and birthday celebrations. It is a decorative accessory that unifies the components of the table setting. The perfect table decoration can enhance the décor and theme of the event. Tablecloths come in different shapes such as round, square, oblong, oval and rectangle. There are three different fabrics that are often used to make tablecloths. Among these are silk, poly-cotton, oilcloth and satin.

Silk

This is one of the most elegant and stylish materials that could be use for tablecloth. Silk tablecloths are usually designed for ornament usage. They can be used in decorating tables in living rooms and bedrooms. However, tablecloth made of this fabric is not suitable for kitchen or dining.

Poly-cotton and cotton

These fabrics are used for table covers designed for use on dining tables. They require easy maintenance, so most of these models are machine washable. The quality of poly-cotton or cotton tablecloths can be ascertained by checking the thread count parameters that shows the number of both horizontal and vertical threads per a square inch. The quality cotton fabrics have higher thread count parameters.

Oilcloth

It is a popular fabric used for both indoor and outdoor tables. It has the advantage of being waterproof, which makes its maintenance easy. Also, the oilcloth is one of the most inexpensive fabrics.

Satin

Tablecloths made of satin add elegance and touch of class to the table. To beautify your table, you may wish to add an overlay in a contrasting colour. It is important to take note of your table’s measurements for a correct fit. A tablecloth of fine satin or polyester that is free of wrinkle will ensure that the setting is as special as the event itself. When it comes to choosing the tablecloth for decorating the home, colours and patterns of the tablecloth should be important considerations. They should be chosen according to the colour palette of the interior decoration. This should consider colours of the wall, table, and other furniture and accessories, in addition to one or more colours that would look great when used in a combination with the colours from the list. To get the beauty out of your tablecloth, always check that the size will fit the table on which it is designed to be used.
