8 Types Of Table Linen For Your Home
These days it is a trend to have glass tables and not cover it up at all. However, table linen is something that barely goes out of fashion. Having a dining table without a table cloth is like sleeping on a bed without bed sheets. Your table looks bare without the right types of table linen. Most homemakers cannot afford satin and silk table covers for everyday use. However, there are certain types of table covers that every lady must have in her cabinet.
All types of table linen are not suitable for every occasion. In fact, the type of dining table you have also plays a pivotal role in deciding what types of table covers you should be using. Some types of table linen are commoner than others. For example, every homemaker usually has a white table cloth reserved for Sunday lunch or dinner. There is also this crochet table cloth that is kept for special occasions.
16 BEST COFFEE TABLES FOR YOUR LIVING ROOM
The velvet and satin only come out for wedding dinners and Christmas. And for everyday use, most of us have a checked variety that is changed every day. Table covers get dirty very quickly and some people think they are very high maintenance. However, it is important to dress your table or else it looks bare and incomplete.
Here are some types of table linen that all homemakers should have in their kitty:
The Square Checks
This is the commonest type of table cloth that you will find. You can keep using them from Monday to Friday keeping a different colour everyday. The red and white checks are the most used. These thick cotton fabrics are durable and easily washable.
Centrepiece Table Clothes
This type of table linen looks excellent on glass tables. You can cover the entire table with this type of table linen. There is one long rectangular spread to lay out the food. Then, there are smaller rectangular table mats for individual dishes.
White Lace Table Linen
Traditionally, all table linen used to be white and you still cannot beat the old world charm of a white table cloth. However, it gets dirty very easily. So, white and lace table covers are reserved for special family dinners.
Crochet Table Covers
Crochet table covers look best in white backgrounds. Ideally, you need wooden tables for displaying a crochet table cloth. It does not look good on glass top tables.
Contrast Table Linen
Table linen includes all the fabric you put on your table. You can lay out a bright blue table cloth and then put contrasting white table mats on it.
Polka Dots
If you have a cute little kitchen table, then dress it in polka dotted table clothes or bunny rabbit patterned table covers.
Straw Covers
If you do not want your table cover to be of high maintenance, then use straw mats. Straw mats are non-fabric and they are easy to wash. They do not retain stains either.
Embroidered Fabrics
For really special occasions, you can save your embroidered table clothes. You can do the thread work yourself or get it done by experts. Silk, satin and chiffon are the best materials for this kind of table cloths.
