Table Runners

Tips For Hire and Arranging Table Runners

Table runners are great elements for any kitchen or outdoor picnic table. They can be used for any occasion or event. Whether you are throwing a formal dinner or only inviting a few friends over, the runners will make them feel welcome as they sit down at the table. Choosing the right one can be somewhat challenging because there are so many colors, materials, sizes, and designs to choose from.

When hiring for table runners, make sure they match the rest of the room. If you want any for an outdoor picnic table, your best bet is to go for something colorful and fun. Make sure it matches with the napkins, dinnerware, silverware, and any other accents on the table. You can set a specific theme to which you can match everything. Even if the dinner is casual, you can still be creative with the table runners and other accents.

You also need to look at the type of material to hire. Most runners are made out of silk and polyester. Silk is obviously the superior choice, but polyester is cheaper. Most people won’t even be able to tell the difference. If you want something more traditional, you can choose from a variety of handmade quilted table runners. They are breathtaking and will make your guests feel welcomed like nothing else will!

Before hiring a runner, you need to take measurements. The length and width of your table need to be measured accurately for the best fit. If you are going to be placing both a tablecloth and runner on the table, make sure that the edges of both meets. It will look sloppy if one hangs down lower than the other.

For larger dining room tables, you may want to consider displaying more than one runner. Indeed, you can set a few extra table runners across the table’s width! These will need to be a bit narrower and smaller than the primary runner, and you should set the centerpiece over the latter. Also, make sure everything matches perfectly. If you have trouble with the arrangement, then don’t bother with extra table runners—it’s better to have one lying neatly on the table rather than three or four lying haphazardly.
